How to Choose Chocolate Favours That Match Your Wedding Palette
Share
Favours are one of the last things couples plan and one of the first things guests notice on their way out the door. Done well, they're a small detail that photographs beautifully and gets remembered long after the cake is gone. Done as an afterthought, they blend into every other wedding favour a guest has ever received. Here's how to get it right.
Start With Your Palette, Not the Chocolate
Most couples choose the chocolate first and try to make it match later. Flip that. Start with your wedding colours and let the packaging, labels, and ribbon build around them. The chocolate itself can stay simple and elegant; it's the presentation that carries your palette.
Custom Labels Do More Work Than You'd Think
A custom label turns a beautiful chocolate into a beautiful, on-theme chocolate. We design labels around your colour palette, monogram, or wedding motif, so every favour looks like it was made specifically for your day, because it was.
Ribbon Ties the Whole Look Together
Ribbon is a small detail with an outsized effect. Matching your ribbon to your palette (or to your bridesmaids' dresses, your florals, or your invitation suite) creates a cohesive look across your whole dessert table and favour display.
Think About Where the Favours Will Live
Escort card table. Favours displayed with place cards should be uniform and easy to grab without disrupting the table.
Welcome bags and hotel drops. These often travel, so sturdier packaging and a label with a personal touch (initials, wedding date) go a long way.
Dessert table addition. If favours are doing double duty as part of your dessert spread, presentation matters even more.
Don't Forget Dietary Considerations
We offer both classic and plant-based options, so you can accommodate your full guest list without sacrificing the look or quality of your favours.
A Note on Timing
Custom labels and ribbon take time to design and produce properly. We recommend reaching out at least 2 weeks before you need your favours, ideally earlier if your wedding date is during a busy season.
