When and for whom are the wedding boxes?
Welcome gift boxes for guests
If what you want is to make a gift for all the guests and leave them with their mouths open just when they arrive, this is the option for you. You can include a welcome note, a map of the venue or even a timetable with everything that is going to happen during the day/night.
Remembrance boxes for you
Even if the bride and groom are the ones who organise the whole wedding, it’s also nice to let them surprise you and let them leave you some little details to remember the day:
- Photo keepsake box: If you want to preserve the special moments of your wedding in photos, you can create a photo keepsake box. Guests can leave there all the photos taken during the night (if you have given out cameras), otherwise you can print them later and keep them in this ideal box for photos.
- Keepsake note box: A keepsake note box is a lovely way to keep messages and good wishes from your guests. Place a small notepad and pencils in the box and ask guests to write a message for you.
- Wine keepsake box: If you are wine lovers you can create a wine keepsake box to keep a special bottle of wine from the wedding. Personalising the box with your initials, wedding date, and other significant details is super easy on our website.
Gift boxes for the best man and groomsmen
We all know that the groomsmen are our favourite guests, so we will definitely have to give them a special gift. Here are some ideas:
