Anusri CreationsHow to choose wedding return gifts guests will keep
Return gifts are the last thing a guest takes home from your wedding. The best ones are useful, easy to carry and still around a year later.
Start with what guests will actually use
A gift that sits in a drawer is a gift forgotten. Candles, small jars and trays get used or displayed, and they suit every age group. A reusable jar is a bonus: once the candle is finished, it becomes a planter, pen stand or organiser.
Think about size and travel
Many guests travel by train or car after the event. Pick pieces that are compact and sturdy, and ask for gift-ready packing so nothing needs wrapping on the day.
Match the colours to your wedding
Pastel blush, sage, ivory and sky blue photograph well and feel calm. At Anusri, Anjali makes jars and candles in many colours, and she can mix a custom shade to match your wedding palette. Tell her your colours and she will suggest a combination.
Order early and in one batch
Handmade pieces take time to cast, cure and finish. Plan to place a bulk order at least a few weeks before the date and share the quantity, colours and delivery date clearly. A single batch also keeps colours consistent across all pieces.
A simple checklist
Count your guests and add a few spare pieces. Choose one product and two or three colours. Decide on a fragrance, or choose unscented for mixed guests. Confirm the date you need them by, and ask for a photo before delivery.
