Bomboniere and guest gifts

A bomboniera is a beautiful little keepsake that is given to your wedding guests as both a "thank you" and a token of remembrance. HSI's bomboniere are customised, designed, decorated and imaginatively presented to suit your wedding theme and style - you may choose the more traditional sugared almonds, or special chocolates, decorated biscuits or candles, all presented in a charming decorative box or pochette.

They can also be given at engagement parties, bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, baby showers, births, christenings, anniversary parties, graduations, birthdays and other special occasions.

Where and when did the tradition of bomboniere originate?

The practice of giving bomboniere started in Italy, during the 14th century, when the families of engaged couples began swapping small packages filled with sweets as a sign of good fortune. Over time, sugar-coated almonds became the preferred choice of sweets and their use spread to occasions other than engagements and weddings. Today, no special celebration is considered complete without a carefully chosen bomboniera.
