We’ve all been there – leaving a wedding with yet anotherscented candle, a mason jar filled with candied almonds, or a tiny succulent that’s destined to wither on a windowsill.
For years, couples have grappled with the challenge of selecting wedding favors that won’t end up in a drawer or, worse, the bin. And the wedding industry has seen it all – from personalized coasters that collect dust (who wants a coaster with anyone’s face on it?) to seed packets that say “let love grow” that you never plant. Couples invest time and money into these tokens of appreciation, only to find that guests are often less than enthused about adding another monogrammed wine stopper to their collection.
But what if there was a way to break this cycle of forgettable favors? What if couples could offer their guests something they’d not only want to take home but would use and cherish? And maybe, just maybe, they wouldn’t end up in the bin.
Enter the collaboration between French patisserie Ladurée and luxury design house Ceci New York. This partnership promises to redefine the concept of wedding favors, offering a solution that’s practical and seriously luxe.
Gone are the days of generic gift bags filled with chocolate-covered almonds or tiny bottles of bubbles, this exclusive line features limited edition macaron gift boxes adorned with hand-painted floral designs by artist Ceci Johnson. And yes, they are filled with Ladurée macarons. You’re welcome.
Why These Wedding Favors Stand Out
Unlike the ubiquitous vanilla candle or picture frame with the betrothed’s initials, these boxes serve a dual purpose. Not only do they house delectable macarons for immediate enjoyment (and undoubtedly eating them on the dancefloor), the box is so beautiful that your guests are sure to want to keep all of their knick-knacks in them!
Ceci Johnson’s timeless watercolor florals adorning the box complement various wedding themes, making these boxes suitable for multiple wedding-related events (yes, bridal showers, bachelorettes, you name it!) and ensuring they’ll fit seamlessly into guests’ homes.
The limited-edition nature of these favors adds an exclusive touch to any wedding celebration, but it also means that you’ll need to order them soon! The collection consists of 2-macaron, 4-macaron and 18-macaron size options—perfect for wedding favors, bridesmaid gifts, and bridal shower prizes.
With nationwide US shipping available, these favors are accessible for destination weddings or couples outside major urban centers.
