Wedding Favour Ideas: Personalised Mints Your Guests Will Actually Use

Anyone who’s been to a wedding has seen it: a table full of favours nobody takes home. Little trinkets, tiny jars, or decorative boxes look lovely in photos but often get left behind at the end of the night. Personalised, individually wrapped mints solve that problem — they’re a favour guests actually want to pick up and use.

Why Mints Make Better Wedding Favours

They get used, not left behind. A mint is something every guest can enjoy there and
then, or slip into a pocket or bag for later — no awkward decision about whether to take
it home. They fit any wedding theme. With full colour printing, wrappers can be designed
to match your colour scheme, include your names and wedding date, or feature a simple monogram.
They’re budget-friendly at scale. For weddings with a large guest list, mints offer a way to give every table a thoughtful, personalised touch without the per-guest cost of more elaborate favours. They work as a table detail too. Beyond a take-home favour, personalised mints look attractive simply set out on tables or in a bowl near the guest book, adding a coordinated design touch to the room.

Design Ideas for Personalised Wedding Mints

Couple’s initials or monogram, paired with the wedding date
A colour palette that matches the bridesmaids’ dresses or table florals
A short thank-you message to guests on the wrapper
A simple illustration style — florals, foliage, or a venue outline — to tie in with invitations and signage

Practical Tips for Ordering Wedding Mints

Order early where possible, but don’t panic if the date has crept up — some suppliers offer an express production option for lastminute additions to the guest list or latefinalised designs.
Match your invitation artwork. If you already have a colour palette or motif from your invitations, reusing it on the mint wrappers creates a more cohesive look across the day.
Think about quantities per table, not just per guest — a small bowl of mints per table often works better than a single wrapped mint per place setting.

Final Thoughts

Wedding favours are meant to be a small thank-you, not an afterthought guests forget on the table. Personalised, individually wrapped mints combine a practical treat with a genuinely customisable design, making them one of the easiest favours to get right — and one of the few that guests reliably take with
them. Browse our personalised wedding mints and wedding Mentos-style mints, or get in touch to
