Looking for standout guest favours that guests will actually love? Whether you're hosting a hen party, a wedding reception, or any special celebration event, these thoughtful ideas will make your gathering memorable with just the right touch of fun (and flavour!)

Give your guests a sweet and slightly tipsy surprise with miniature cupcakes or cake jars infused with liqueurs like Baileys, limoncello, or Amaretto. Packaged in cute glass jars or single serve boxes, they make perfect party favours for hen parties and weddings.

2. Mini Scented Candles

A beautifully-scented candle in a glass votive adds an elegant touch to any table setting. Choose scrumptious fragrances like vanilla, gingerbread or cinnamon to create a calm, celebratory ambience.


3. Cocktail Miniatures

A splash of your personality for everyone to enjoy. Create your signature cocktail and serve it in a mini glass jar ready for a group cheers. A fun grown up treat perfect for wedding favours.

4. Edible Favour Bags

Assemble mini bags of gourmet popcorn, chocolate-covered pretzels, or candied nuts. Label them with event-specific messages like “Team Bride” or “Happily Ever After” a tasty and easy guest favour idea.

5. Flowers in Mini Bud Vases

A small bud vase with fresh blooms is a beautiful, decorative favour. Wrap it in ribbon matching your event colour scheme. Ideal for wedding favours and classy celebration gifts.

6. Laughter Jar: Mini Quotes & Jokes

Create a “Laughter Jar” filled with handwritten funny quotes or jokes. Guests can take one for a smile later or use them as an ice breaker with other guests. This is a unique celebration favour idea that's heartfelt and truly memorable.

7. Homemade Sugar Scrub Pots

Whip up small jars of luxurious sugar scrub scented with essential oils. These DIY party favours add a pamper element to your event and show off thoughtful, handmade flair.

8. Personalised Bottle Openers

Gift elegant, engraved bottle openers, either in stainless steel or wood as party favour keepsakes. They blend practicality with sentiment and are especially fitting for hen parties.

9. Custom Cookies

Delicately decorated cookies shaped to match your event (e.g. flowers, hearts, champagne flutes). These edible wedding favours or hen party favour boxes are aesthetic, delicious and great for custom messages.

Tips for Choosing & Presenting Guest Favours

  1. Align with your theme & vibe: Match semi-sweet boozy bakes to a fun, relaxed hen vibe or opt for elegant candles for rustic weddings.

  2. Add personal touches: Monograms, dates, or small notes bring personalisation.

  3. Think packaging: Eco craft boxes, ribbon-tied bags, or organza pouches take it to the next level.

  4. Mind your budget: Homemade treats and DIY crafts offer budget-friendly ways to stay thoughtful.
