is it worth giving bomboniere if only half takes theirs home?

Hello and congratualtion on your upcoming wedding!

It's depond on what kind of wedding favour or bombonieres you would give to your guest. Bombonieres are great way to thank your guests for celebrating with you in your special day. Some bombonieres could be boring and not usueful for the guests and as result only half takes their home.

Our mini potted succulents and organic seeds and teas make wonderful choices as unique wedding favours. They're populare and eco-friendly gifts. Also they look lovely on the tables by adding up to the decoration.

All the best

Congratulations on your big day,

Bombonieres are definately one of those little luxury extras, whilst they are often overlooked till the last minute it is also the small touches that can make a wedding complete.  Having said that, I think it usually depends on the gift.  Something a little special that is trully viewed as a gift that will give them something to take home and enjoy are usually not left behind.  The bomboniere itself is a lovely thankyou as guest have often gone to a lot of trouble to attend, from travel and accommodation to a brand new outfit in honour of your special day as well their gift to you. So a small token of appreciation if usually a lovely gesture.

Thats why small gifts such as a candle, succulent or other items are gaining in popularity.  We produce a lovely Chai Latte to enjoy in a beautiful romantic heart shaped keepsake jar or the jars can be filled with your choice of confectionary.  If there is not much left in the budget then even just putting chocolates or lollies in a beautiful keepsake jar as a DIY project an be lovely.

I hope this has been of some help.

Thank you for your question. I think Bomboniere are important and it is a way of saying thank you to your guests for sharing your special day and that you are genuinly happy they are with you. Unfortunately this does happen sometimes I think  some guests genuinly forget it is something you can't controll.  If you choose something edible then some guests may open and enjoy eating their treats during the night, it could be a Personalise  chocolates, cookies or lollies eg. jelly beans in personalised jars and boxes or personalise 200ml Bottles of wine which can serve as a place setting as well. I have only seen the sugared almonds wrapped in tulle left behind at some tables in the past.

Best of luck!

Thank you for your question.  It's a very good point and I am sure this is common too and happens at many weddings. Unfortunately some guests may just naturally forget so just something you can't control I'm afraid.  If you choose something edible then some guests may open and enjoy eating their treats during the night.  I have only seen sugared almonds wrapped in tulle left behind at some tables before but if you offer chocolates or lollies I am sure most guests wouldn't forget them!  We supply Jelly Bellys in personalised jars which allows guests to enjoy them during the evening and also carry home.  Any wasted bombonieres can always be re-gifted to the venue staff, photographer, etc.

Best of luck!

Regards, Kelly

Congratulations to you both.

Bomboniere is a tradition that has evolved over the years.  There are no rules when it comes to giving Bomboniere however it is seen as a gestur of thanks to your guests.  At the end of the day its what suits you and your partner and what is affordable.

Good luck with your wedding planning.

Thank you for your question. Definitely yes. Your thank you gift to friends and family shows your appreciation that they shared your special day and for your gift. Should you have prior concerns that bomboniere may get left behind, perhaps a shared favour between couples may be the answer.

Hello and congratulations from us at Chok Art for your upcoming wedding

Bonbonieres are a beautiful gift given to your guests as a memento of your special occasion.

Favours traditionally held five sugared almonds which represent Wealth, Health, Happiness, Long life and Fertility, unfortunatly not many of us like

those sugar coated almonds and Bonbonieres are now just the giving of any gift the Bride and Groom wish to give.

Giving a gift of chocolate far lessens the chance of the guests leaving it at the reception. We at Chok Art make your guest's name card and Bonbonieres into one.

Yes we make the name card out of chocolate ( we don't print on a paper wrapper we write directly onto the handmade chocolates) this way you get two standards at a wedding reception table for the price of one.

Our standard card costs only $5 each with what ever you would like on them, we can match to any theme, they make wonderful tabe decorations, and are a beautiful and cost saving way of thanking your friends and family for joining you on your special day by giving them something very new and unique to the market.

Regards
