Favour Bags and Boxes

All of Hayfords Favour Boxes, bar the odd exception, are
MANUFACTURED ON SITE

Please Note: All the boxes shown below are available in a wide range of colours and options. Not just as shown

With manufacturing on site, comes the advantage of being able to have the box made in the same material as the rest of your stationery.

Three Options are available to you:

Plain: Boxes are cut and glued as necessary and supplied

Spot Printed: Printed or Foil stamped with the bride and grooms names and the wedding date and sometimes a short message

Personalised: Personalising can be directly on to the box prior to gluing, giving a total professional look to every little detail. Some of the darker colours represent a challenge but in this instance we have a variety of name tags that can be personalised and tied or glued to the boxes. Or the boxes could be personalised by yourself or a Calligrapher, with a thickened ink pen. In some cases a white photography pencil can be used to great effect.

2007 Revamp

We have started the revamp since the introduction of new software and we appreciate your patience while this is carried out. We will place the new and ravamped boxes and bags at the top as we go so the list will be out of order slightly for a while. Do scroll down further for possible other options in smaller sizes.

The revamping will now include prices for the boxes so hopefully that we be of greater assitance to you when making choices.

30mm Flip Lid Cube

One of our smaller boxes, it will hold a Hershey's kiss nicely.

A neat little trick with it – four boxes will fit in the lid of our 60x60x30 Box and lid. Four different colours or two x two in a third coloured lid and you have an effective table decoration and something a little different

Always a winner this box. It holds a couple of mini foil wrapped chocolates or the 5 Almonds. Even Chocolate coated Macadamia nuts (ooooh yummmm!).

Star themed box is an extra cost and available soon will be heart cut outs also.

35x35x100mm Flip Lid Pyramid Box

Teamed with our 100x100x200 Pyramid box, you have a Table Number/Name and matching place cards or favour boxes.

For a Christmas wedding they can be turned them into Christmas Trees and add a festive note to the proceedings. (includes the large box as well)


40x30x28mm Bow Box

Always a winner, this decorative little box is small enough to hold a single chocolate or 5 Almonds but large enough to do justice to the table layout.

Not all that suitable as a place card but the Bride and Grooms names can be foil stamped or printed and become a lovely keepsake from your day.

50x30x100mm Tuxedo Box

Teamed with either our fan box or our mini purse box this box goes down with the men folk a little easier than some of our more frillier type boxes.

Some really dramatic colour combinations can be used both on the box or with the fan or purse box.

50x50x40 Box & Lid

A touch of class.
Nothing says smart like a box and lid.

All that we can do with our other boxes, we can do with this but with a ribbon and name tag or on it's own it's just stunning

At the base of this page, you will see some ideas that we have put up. One of them is the cake of trunks. We suspect this box will look quite effective put to the same use. Will keep you posted.

Name tags or even names printed on to the lids are possible.

Personalised ribbon is also available and is always another option. Just gives that point of difference

65x78x10 Wrap

As with some of our boxes this wrap did not start life as a favour box BUT we have found it will hold a couple of slab chocolates that can be obtained and also there is a very nice macadamia nut bar that will fit perfectly into this wrap.

Tied with ribbon for decoration or a printed or foiled motif on the lid. Even the flaps can have printing on for a small story effect as the favour unfolds.

Of course place card options but anything goes.

67x45x45 Place Card Box

Our Place Card Box. This box has been really popular.

As you can see, it is a perfect combination favour box come place card. Ribbons can be tied to it and all sorts of decorations glued on.

75x75x30 Box & Lid - Triangle

Just something a little different from the square box, these boxes can be laid flat or stood up on their base.

Have yet to come up with a way of tying a ribbon attractively around this box but have drilled two holes in the lid and tied a ribbon through as you can see.

Personalising with your guests names is still an option as is the printing of the Bride and Grooms names and the wedding date with a thank you message

75mm Flip Lid Cube

Starting to get a bit big as a favour box but just the right size for an individual cake box.

120x40x40mm Box & Lid

Our latest addition - this box will hold four truffles (depending on size of course) but that's not to say you have to put truffles in.

Cake again would work as too would some small chocolate logs. (oooooohhh) But we are sure there are some other really fantastic ideas out there as to what else would go in. We will update you as they come.

60x45x80mm Carry Bags

Available only in quartz and anthracite paper but other colours coming soon.

Some nice gooey chocolates or even an Easter egg for an Easter wedding, sat inside a brightly coloured serviette and a bright coloured table trimming is to be had.

Or stand them all together at a separate table for the guests to help themselves and instantly a colourful corner where there was none.

85x45x160 Paper Bags

Available in a few other colours these bags are a nice inexpensive option for a maximum effect.

Trimmed with ribbon or paua or butterflies or whatever thread you may have flowing through your wedding they can be a real scene stealer.

Kete Bag

Becomming very popular with overseas couples, this icon of Kiwiana is being used in a very traditional way.

Options include - Paua or whatever attached to the front and a card with the meaning of the paua and kete tucked inside complete with guests name at the top
