Sweeten Your Celebration with Fudge Kitchen’s New Wedding Favours Looking for a wedding favour that is delicious, personal and easy on the budget? Fudge Kitchen has launched its new Envelope Fudge Favours, offering couples a stylish way to add a little indulgence to their wedding tables. Each elegant envelope contains a generous mini slice of fresh, handcrafted artisan fudge, wrapped and finished with a choice of colourful biodegradable ribbons. Priced at £4.95 per favour, with discounts available for orders of 150 or more, they make an affordable alternative to traditional wedding favours. Available in six tempting flavours – Salted Caramel, Clotted Cream, Dark Chocolate & Sea Salt, White Chocolate, Raspberries & Cream, and Strawberries & Clotted Cream – there is something to suit every sweet tooth. The favours can also be personalised with a message, making them perfect for adding the couple’s names and wedding date, a heartfelt thank-you or even a little message for guests to discover at their place setting. Ribbon colours can be coordinated with the wider wedding palette, from classic white, cream and gold to pretty pinks, rich reds, navy and forest green. Thoughtfully packaged using compostable and biodegradable clear film, FSC-certified recycled board and biodegradable ribbon, the favours combine beautiful presentation with more considered choices. Whether placed at each setting, given as a welcome gift or presented as a thank-you to guests, these little envelopes are designed to look as good as they taste – and are sure to disappear quickly from the wedding table!

A rehearsal removes uncertainty; you’ll know where to walk, where to stand and what happens next, allowing you to focus on each other rather than the logistics. “It’s also the perfect opportunity to make any last-minute adjustments. Whether a family member can no longer attend, the wedding party has changed or you’ve decided to include a special personal element, we can make sure everything flows smoothly and avoid unnecessary stress on the day. “The details matter too. From nervous ring bearers to first-time readers, everyone benefits from knowing what’s expected and feeling prepared. Best of all, rehearsals can be great fun. Follow yours with a family meal, raise a glass together or simply enjoy spending time with your nearest and dearest before the big day. It often becomes a memorable part of the celebrations in its own right. “A rehearsal is more than a practice run, it’s peace of mind and the perfect start to your wedding celebrations, helping to create a ceremony that feels relaxed, personal and uniquely yours – one you’ll remember forever.” Visit yourchoiceceremonies.co.uk AUTUMN ESCAPE AT THE BILDESTON CROWN Fancy a countryside getaway without the hefty price tag?
