How the wedding supplies calculator works

Guests (+5% spare) → pieces needed ÷ pieces per lot = lots to order × lot price + duty & VAT = landed cost

Bulk AliExpress listings sell lots containing dozens of pieces, stated in the title (e.g. 50Pcs/lot). We parse the title, compute the per-piece price, then the lots needed to cover your guests plus a 5% spare buffer for breakage and last-minute guests. We add your country's estimated customs duty and VAT (e.g. 15% VAT in Saudi Arabia), check the expected arrival window against your wedding date, and compare the result with the typical local favors-seller range (a 3–5× markup).

FAQs

Why are Instagram favors sellers so much more expensive?

Most buy the same AliExpress products and add a margin, typically 3–5×, for their time and the risk of holding stock. Ordering wholesale yourself costs roughly the true landed price — in exchange for waiting and coordination.

What does "50Pcs/lot" in a product title mean?

One order (the lot) contains 50 pieces and the listed price is for the whole lot, not one piece. The calculator parses this from the title automatically and prices per piece; if the title states no piece count we treat the price as per-piece and flag it so you can verify on the product page.

How much lead time do I need before the wedding?

Standard AliExpress shipping typically takes about 3 weeks and can stretch to 4–5. Order at least a month before the date, ideally two — especially near peak seasons like 11.11 or Chinese New Year.

Does the final figure include shipping?

No — shipping is set at checkout and depends on weight and seller, so we never invent it. The figures cover goods plus estimated customs duty and VAT. Add the product page's shipping cost for the final number.

Do you show branded products like Disney?

No. Any listing whose title mentions a protected brand is automatically excluded — most are illegal replicas that can be seized at customs. We only show brand-free generic supplies.
