A gift from the bride

That’s awfully cute.

But what is it? Not sure what a 'stubby holder' is.

That looks really nice.

The dog looks just like my childhood Labrador retriever. I am unfamiliar with small gifts at weddings, although we have a wedding in April to attend. I will be looking around for my gift

I agree, wedding favors weren’t really a “thing” years ago, or if they were, they were very simple. Now, almost every wedding has its own souvenirs for guests, and most of them are personalized with photos, pets, or little details that make them feel special and meaningful. We’ve also collected quite a few wedding souvenirs at home over the years. Every time we attend a wedding, there’s always something to take home. So far, the most unique one we’ve received was a packet of seeds, which I thought was really nice and different. At least it had meaning and was something you could actually use. But I was unsuccessful growing the seeds lol. It’s nice to see how creative couples have become when it comes to these little details.

What a fun looking stubby holder Judy

That is very interesting and thoughtful.

Bomboniere in Italy are given from the newly weds to their guests and they must contain almonds covered with sugar that are called confetti.

That's cute! Here guests normally get 'wedding favours' but traditionally they were a little bag of sugared almonds - no idea why.

That’s a nice gift. I think it is common nowadays to have small gifts given by the new couple in their wedding.

Interesting that you received a gift.
