Gifts as Mementoes for your Wedding Guests
The five traditional wishes for the bride and groom are health, wealth, happiness, fertility and longevity.
* A nice little touch and one that is quite traditional are to give your guests a little something to remember your special day by.
* It comes with the territory for the wedding to have a colour scheme; perhaps you could take your queue from there if you are not sure what to give your wedding guests.
* Something as pretty as an iced cupcake presented in a beautiful box has become quite popular with today’s modern brides or select tasteful porcelain or silver ornaments to give to your guests.
* It is traditional to receive a piece of wedding cake to take home; legend has it that you would dream of your future husband if you slept with this underneath your pillow. But in today’s world the heavy fruitcake is not as common-place as it was in the past.
* Lovely to take home with you are the traditional Italian, Greek and Portuguese “bonbonierie”; these little pink and white covered sugared almonds are wonderful mementoes with the date and names of the happy couple, to take home as a special keep-sake of the special day. Usually there are five pink and white almonds that signify five wishes for the bride; these are health, wealth, happiness, fertility and longevity.
A wedding gift to the guests is often a token of the happy union of two people who love and cherish each other.
