Ordering Bonbonieres

Q: When preparing the place cards at the reception, how does it work if there is a family of 4 or 5 and all names need to go on a place card? Who gets the bonboniere?

A: The general rule of thumb is one bonboniere per invitation sent. Just look back at the list of invitations and make sure that every invitation has a bonboniere. It's always a great idea to have about 10% over-order, so take your total number of invitations, order that many bonbonieres, than add an extra 10% to the bonboniere order. That way, if someone takes two or some get broken, you won't run into any shortage of wedding favours!
