Wedding Favors

It’s that time of year when everyone seems to be getting married. If you haven’t been to a wedding yet this summer, then you probably have marked on your calendar to attend one of those gorgeous fall weddings in September or October – be you a guest or a bride!


For those of you getting ready for your fall wedding, you might be asking yourself, “What will I do for a favor?” and there are so many ideas out there, you wonder where to begin. Nowadays people are making their own favors, some do mix-CDs with the couples favorite songs, some have their names printed on shot glasses, pens, and other novelty items, a lot of people make paper crafts to give out...but it seems to hold true that the most common types of favors are sweets. Sometimes they’re homemade, sometimes the couples names are printed on candy or wrappers, and sometimes it’s Jordan Almonds wrapped in tulle.


Did you know that candy and sweets go back to the earliest of wedding favors with the European aristocrats? They would give out gifts known as bomboniere, which is Italian for favors. The bomboniere were usually small boxes made of precious materials (such as crystal or porcelain) and inside they would put something sweet. Back in those days, sugar was expensive and represented wealth and royalty.


Candy, if packaged the right way, is a very classy favor at weddings - and of course, your guests will love the sweet treat! We put a spin on the traditional tulle and candy favor. Several couples have used us for their wedding favors - including a fourth of July wedding, and this fall we’re doing a 9.10.11 wedding! We change our usual packaging to a much more classy design which is perfect for weddings. 


So why not give your guests your own bomboniere? Contact us, and we’ll take care of the rest!
