Bomboniere, an Italian expression that translates to "sweet favours" began as a tradition that has lasted for centuries.

They were traditionally made of five sugared almonds wrapped in tulle to symbolise the union between a man and a woman. Almonds were said to represent health, wealth, long-life, fertility and happiness.

In the 17th century Europe, the aristocracy gave bomboniere to guests to celebrate birthdays, christening and marriages. These gifts were made of gold, precious stones, crystals or porcelain. They contained sugar, a then costly delicacy.

In modern times, the way in which we say 'thank you' to our friends and loved on our Weddind Day can be endless.

Your Bomboniere will send a clear message of how much you appreciate your friends and family, their good wishes, gifts and their friendship.

Your stationery should match the theme and tone you set for your wedding. Your bombonnieres should always be in keeping with your stationery.
