Fabulous, Delicious and Favourite Favours
Did you know that the hottest trends for this season are fruity and funky favours?
Wedding favours have seen a huge explosion in recent years in terms of style, price and certainly colour.
So many brides are trying to outdo each other when it comes to dressing their reception and party tables effectively.
Are you one of those funky brides who wants to keep up with the latest trends? If this sounds like you then you must opt for fresh, funky and even fruity wedding favour fillings.
But, do you know what a fruity wedding favour is?
Well, let’s start with what a standard, traditional wedding favour filling is.
It used to be the case that wedding favours were only given by the upper classes but this has filtered down to most brides now.
The giving of wedding favours is becoming an expected part of a wedding celebration and any kind of favour is always well received by guests.
Traditionally, boxes were filled with special sweets such as Jordan Almonds. Five pieces were given to guests, each having a special meaning; fertility, health, happiness, longevity and wealth.
The giving of nets and almonds has very much come from the Italians and the French.
It is still true to say that although sugared almonds and dragees capture most of the market share when it comes to wedding favour fillings, there are many other options that are being considered by lots of modern brides.
Love Hearts Mini Tubes are an ever-popular choice to fill a wedding favour box with as these encapsulate the sentiments of a special day such as a wedding. They are also great for party favours too or as a little treat for the kids.
Other fruit sweets such as spring coloured bombons, Jelly Bellies and Wine Gums are great choices, especially for weddings that have a light, fresh and fun theme.
Flying Saucers and Sherbet look fantastic when presenting in clear containers and finished with co-ordinating ribbon.
These are sure to get your guests talking and reminiscing about their childhood.
If you are one of those people who is not keen to provide guests with sugary, highly coloured sweets, then maybe you should look at offering something more natural.
You can create the same desired effect by filling jars, boxes or tubs with marzipan fruits, preserved fruit pieces, dried fruits, nuts or even jams.
As long as your favour fillings are brightly coloured and beautifully presented, your funky, fruity wedding favours are bound to get your guests talking.
You could even provide guests with a personalised tub of freshly chopped fruit and point them towards your chocolate fountain! This way they can enjoy the experience on the day and take the personalised container home as a keepsake.
So, when it comes to fresh, fruity and funky wedding favour fillings the key is colour.
It doesn’t matter whether you choose to fill boxes, tubs or jars with sweets, sherbets, jellies, fruits or nuts, as long as the overall feel is young, fresh and delicious. Choosing such wedding favour fillings will ensure that your wedding is talked about for years to come – for all the right reasons!
