When are the bonbonnieres handed out?
At the discretion of the youth, bonbonnieres can either be laid out on the tables before the banquet, or at the end of the celebration, when the guests have gone to watch the fireworks or to the dance floor. Another option is to personally present gifts to each guest after the holiday.
How many bonbonnieres do you need?
With a small number of guests, it is advisable to make a mini-gift for each invitee. If there are a lot of guests, then bonbonnieres are given with the expectation of one piece per married couple. An important point - if children are present at your celebration, then it is better to present each little invitee.
Tip: you can attach a small thank you card to each bonbonniere
