Wedding Favours
The wedding favour custom originated from Italy. Wedding favours, traditionally called 'bomboniere', were made from five sugar-coated almonds gathered together in different tulles or nets.

Wedding Favours
The age old custom of giving wedding
favours is thought to have originated from Italy.
They were traditionally known as
'Bomboniere'. They consisted of sugar-coated almonds gathered within
a net. The significance of giving five sugared almonds was they
individually symbolised health, wealth, happiness, long-life and
fertility.
Giving wedding guests favours is a
wedding tradition which is still very much alive today. However it is
not just sugared almonds which are given as favours there are a whole
host of alternative gifts your guests could receive such as
miniatures, chocolate, fortune cookies, lottery tickets, candles,
plant seeds and more.
