The best sheet for wedding favor labels
Small thank-you labels for wedding favours: honey jars, candy boxes, mini bottles and seed packets with the couple's names and date. Avery 5293 puts 24 labels on one US Letter sheet in 4 columns and 6 rows, which is why it is the default for wedding favor labels here.
Each label is 1 5/8″ (41.3 mm) wide and 1 5/8″ (41.3 mm) tall (round), with a 1/2″ (12.7 mm) top margin and a 7/16″ (11.1 mm) side margin on the sheet. The longest line of the preset, “Maya & Jordan”, has 13 characters; at 10 pt one label holds about 6 lines of 14 characters, at 8 pt about 7 lines of 18.
Compared with 5293: Avery 5294 has 2.4× the label area and 12 instead of 24 labels per sheet, OnlineLabels OL1025 has 38 % of the label area and 63 instead of 24 labels per sheet and OnlineLabels OL3016 has 1.5× the label area and 12 instead of 24 labels per sheet. Pick the larger labels when your favours need bigger type, the smaller ones when you print many.

Tips for printing wedding favor labels
- Count favours per guest, not per invitation: couples and families need more labels than invitations.
- Tiny round labels look best with two lines: names and date; skip the location.
- Print one sheet, stick one label on a real favour and look at it from a table's distance before printing the rest.
- Matte labels hide fingerprints better than glossy when guests handle favours.
How many sheets for your favours
One label per favour. For 100 favours on Avery 5293 you need 5 sheets and 20 labels stay blank for next time (use the start position to skip them later).
| Favours | Labels | Avery 5293 (24/sheet) | Avery 5294 (12/sheet) | OnlineLabels OL1025 (63/sheet) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50 favours | 50 | 3 sheets | 5 sheets | 1 sheet |
| 100 favours | 100 | 5 sheets | 9 sheets | 2 sheets |
| 150 favours | 150 | 7 sheets | 13 sheets | 3 sheets |

Frequently asked questions
What size are wedding favor labels?
LabelGrid's default for wedding favor labels is 1 5/8″ round (Avery 5293, 24 per sheet). Other sheets that fit: Avery 5294 at 2 1/2″ round, OnlineLabels OL1025 at 1″ round and OnlineLabels OL3016 at 2″ × 2″.
How many wedding favor labels fit on one sheet?
24 on Avery 5293, 12 on Avery 5294, 63 on OnlineLabels OL1025 and 12 on OnlineLabels OL3016. For 150 favours at 1 label each you need 7 sheets of Avery 5293.
Can every label on the sheet be different?
Yes. The preset repeats one design on every label, which suits wedding favor labels. For different text on each label, switch to merge mode and paste one row per label; the free version prints one full sheet per list.
Why do my wedding favor labels print out of line?
Check the print dialog first: “fit to page” or any scale other than 100 % shrinks the sheet, and the labels drift. Choose “Actual size” or 100 % scale, the right paper (US Letter) and no “fit to page”. If every label is off by the same amount, use the printer offset in the designer to nudge the whole sheet.
