Bonboniere are little gifts given to your guests in celebration thanks for attending your wedding and are usually left next to their place card on each table.
Bonboniere is a French word meaning “bonbons”. It started in France about 300 years ago when the bride & Groom gave a small box of sweets to each guest in celebration of their special wedding day. The sugar represented wealth or riches. Many variations have continued through out the world over the centuries. In Italy and Greece it has become popular to give 5 sugarcoated almonds, which they say represents happiness, health, children, wealth and long life.
Use a clear box and tie in a attractive ribbon with a DreamDay Bonboniere gift tag attached, or surprise the guests by putting the gift into an opaque or cardboard box and sealing with a DreamDay Bonboniere sticker. All your Bonboniere packaging, boxes, ribbons and tags are available from DreamDay Invitations.

You may choose to give your guests something they might like to keep as a keepsake of the special occasion, a champagne flute or a shot glass with your names and wedding date etched, or something totally practical and unisex that can be used by everyone. Chocolates are particularly popular and look stunning when wrapped in bright coloured foil wraps and presented in perfectly clear box on the reception table.
Decorate your Bonboniere boxes with your unique theme that you have chosen to continue all through your wedding like to beach theme with shells, or butterflies, or hearts. Dress it up with beautiful ribbons to match your colour scheme or use many other beautiful and elegant trimmings such as diamantes’, rhinestones, beads and crystals. Save money by giving just one gift per couple.
