wedding favours

Wedding favours are an essential part of the big day – an important memento for your friends and family to remember your special day. They’re also a great way of saying thank you to your guests; usually a small, but delightful, token of appreciation.

Wedding favours can be almost anything to reflect your theme, budget and individual personality. But we firmly believe your guests will fall in love with our beautifully presented vintage-themed bath treats. For both ladies and gentlemen, Pretty Little Treats make the perfect vintage-themed wedding favours.

We’re a family-based business based in the heart of Yorkshire. All our products are 100% handmade using natural and locally sourced ingredients and free from SLS and parabens.

Brides and grooms can now say ‘I do’ to their own splendid wedding day gin blend, as proud proprietors of craft gin brand Portobello Road Gin and curators of ‘The Ginstitute’ Notting Hill, launch a bespoke wedding service. 

The Ginstitute’s artisan scholars will guide couples to create a perfect marriage of their favourite flavours and ingredients in the 180-minute* session that culminates in bride and groom making their own bespoke gin; adding quintessential British luxe to arrival aperitifs, blissful wedding breakfast beverages or late-night party libations.

As the wedding season officially kicks off, so does the hunt for unique wedding favour ideas to give to your guests. We’re a long way from the traditional wedding favour of sugared almonds, today, couples are splashing the cash on everything from personalised scented candles to miniature bottles of their favourite tipples. Finding wedding favours that are unique has become a quest in itself, with many a disheartened future bride or groom finding themselves sitting at a wedding faced with their own ‘great idea’ next to their place card. 

So what can you do in order to make your favours stand out from the crowd? The answer is to go custom. 

Make your wedding go with a bang with Simply Crackers personalised cracker gifts. A favourite for favours or as a unique thank you for bridesmaids and the best man, these luxurious crackers are a gift with a difference and one that will be remembered by everyone.

Simply Crackers’ products are truly unique and guaranteed to put a smile on your guests’ faces. From only £5 each, the crackers can be ordered online and delivered directly to your venue. Choose from a range of colours (match your colour scheme!), sizes and even tailor the gifts and messages inside - the options are endless.                                             

A Wedding favour is a token gift that newlyweds present to their guests as a small thank-you for attending their special day. Traditionally, guests were offered 5 sugared-almonds to represent the 5 pillars of marriage: Health, Wealth, Happiness, Fertility and a Long Life. Modern weddings bypass this tradition, and we see more creative offerings – everything from little knick-knacks that form part of the table décor, to pre-party aperitifs, that help kick start the celebrations.

Mochi from Ai No Mochi are an exciting and innovative alternative to your standard wedding favours. Mochi are set to be the next big trend in wedding favours!

Choose from delicious flavours such as Raspberry and Coconut Ripple, Vanilla Cheesecake and even Vegan Chocolate Ganache.

Each wedding tries to be better than the previous one and with all weddings having similar favours, mochi are something that most guests will never have seen or tasted before.

The freshly made, bespoke, mochi are a big talking point with their unique exterior texture and creamy soft filling. They can also be colour customised and hand-decorated to tie in with the couple’s wedding theme.
