The giving of bomboniere with sugared almonds is a traditional gesture and a sweet way to thank your guests for all their best wishes and their generous gifts. Most commonly this has been a small tulle package containing 5 sugared almonds attached to a figurine. The five sugared almonds are for each guest to eat to remind us that life is both bitter and sweet.
Five wishes for the new husband and wife – health, wealth, happiness, children and long life.
