One note on ingredients. If the recipient has asked about allergens or dietary detail, point them to the published product information rather than reassuring them yourself. It keeps things honest and accurate.

Choose a chocolate made with care, present it simply, order in good time, and your favours will do exactly what they should. They will say thank you, lilyobriens.co.uk look the part on the table, and quietly make it home in a handful of pockets.

It helps to choose a maker whose product you trust. Lily O'Brien's has handcrafted chocolates in Newbridge, Co. Kildare since 1992, so the favours arrive as something guests recognise and are happy to keep. That recognition does quiet work at the table.

Wedding favours run on two questions that couples always ask and rarely find a straight answer to: how many chocolates per guest, and when to order. Both have practical answers.

Provenance makes any of these feel more deliberate. Lily O'Brien's has handcrafted its chocolates in Newbridge, Co. Kildare since Mary Ann O'Brien founded the brand in 1992, so even a modest box carries a bit of story you can nod to. A gift that comes from somewhere specific always reads as more chosen than one that does not.

Choose a hamper for the occasion or a share bag for the casual version, lean on a maker with real provenance, and keep the presentation simple. The gift will read as considered because it is.
