There’s no better way to thank your wedding guests than with wedding favours. Have you considered surprising your guests with favours that portray your patriotism? That’s right; here you can find our pick of Great British favours.
England
Sensational Scones Topped With Jam and Cream Who doesn’t love a traditional English scone? And when it’s already smothered in jam and cream, well, it saves your guests from getting in a mess! Take a jam jar (or any sort of glass container will do) and cut out a jar-shaped scone so that you can place this in the very bottom of it. Then, using a piping bag, pipe a layer of your favourite jam atop the bottom scone, followed by the finest English cream. Finish with another scone cut-out and you’ll have yourself an extraordinary wedding favour that your guests can enjoy after a few bevvies, or when they need a sugar boost the morning after!
Ireland
Great-tasting Guinness Fudge Ireland is renowned for its Guinness; a trip to Ireland wouldn’t be complete without a pint of the black stuff. So, why not incorporate this tasty drink into a sweet treat? Spoil your guests by providing them with a jar brimming with chunks of glorious Guinness fudge.
Scotland
Seriously Scrumptious Shortbread We all know that the Scots do shortbread the best. It’s a given. If you’re proud to be from Scotland then you’d be silly to miss out on serving up shortbread on your big day. Of course, it’s not dessert-worthy, but for a wedding favour? It’s brilliant. Stack up pieces of shortbread and tie with a blue and white ribbon.

- Bell: weddings, anniversaries or together in harmony
- Birds: love birds
- Knot: eternal love or together forever
- Twisted stem: togetherness
Not only are they beautiful keepsakes, it will remind your guests of the special day they shared with you!
