16 Memorable and Delicious Wedding Favors
To favor or not to favor, that is the question. . . ok, all joking aside, some couples think providing a wedding favor to guests as a “thank you” is important, and some do not. That choice is of course completely up to you.
Centuries ago, wedding favors were known by their French name of bonbonniere. A bonbonniere was a small box made of crystal, porcelain, or gold, and often encrusted with precious stones. These special boxes were meant to hold bonbons, at a time when sugar was quite expensive. Sugar was also highly valued by all, as it was believed to have medicinal benefits. These were given to wedding guests in gratitude.
