You can also use small cellophane bags or cut up pieces of clear cellophane squares (or circles). Just place your gift inside and then tie it with a ribbon. It is easy to co-ordinate your bomboniere with your wedding theme and colours.

Fabrics such as organza or tulle can also be used the same way as cellophane or you can also purchase organza bags from bomboniere suppliers. They come in many different shapes and sizes as well.

 

 

Depending on the type of bomboniere you are using you may even use tissue paper or fancy wrapping paper to wrap your gifts in.

Some items such as lollypops may only need a ribbon around them.

If you love crafts and being creative you may like to make small gift tags with your guest names on them and attach them to the bomboniere with the ribbon or stick the gift cards directly onto bomboniere boxes using double-sided tape.

Here are some other ideas for bomboniere fillings and depending on your theme you can tie your bag or box with a pretty matching ribbon, attach a flower (lavender sprig or rosebud) or some raffia.
