Devon favour ideas

Gift your guests something carefully chosen and locally made with favours that will really share the love



A carefully chosen favour can work wonders in elevating the atmosphere of love at a wedding. Whether you're planning a grand affair and want a little something to say thank you, wish to spoil a small number of guests with a box of mini luxuries, or go all out with a smattering of treats throughout the day, favours are a great way to express your gratitude.

Not only do favours speak volumes about your appreciation levels, they can also be used to infuse extra style and flavour into your day. Use them to extend the theme or colour scheme, increase the bespoke factor, or bring an element of surprise and celebratory fun.

From top tipples and fabulous floristry to heavenly scented goodies, here are a few of our local favourites.

THAT'S THE SPIRIT
Papillon Dartmoor Distillery crafts small batches of its award-winning gin using a copper still, capturing the rural surrounds by fusing fresh spring water from a nearby hill farm with traditional gin botanicals and their own unique 'Dartmoor flavours', including fresh gorse flowers, chamomile, nettles, Devon violets, and rowan and hawthorn berries, for a distinctive flavour that's discernible in every divine drop. 

Named after a species of threatened Dartmoor butterfly, Papillon donates 1% from every bottle sold to a local butterfly conservation project, upping the happiness in every quaff. Pick from any of their tantalising trio of gins ' Papillon (a London dry), The Admiral (Navy strength gin) and the limited edition Carabus (created with Dartmoor naturalist, Nick Baker) for the most delectable addition to your day. They're all available in beautifully boxed gift sets of 5cl miniatures, small 35cl bottles, and large 70cl bottles should you wish to give greater thanks or stock your wedding bar with Devon's loveliest.

NATURAL DELIGHTS
Combining plant-based and ethically sourced ingredients for heavenly scented and nutrient packed products, Moksa's handcrafted artisan range includes skincare, candles, bath salts and body oils. Natural, vegan, and plastic and cruelty-free, each item is handcrafted in small batches in Chloe Osborn's rural Devon studio and packaged with real rose petals. We're particularly smitten with the sustainable soy wax Kama Love Candle, which is created using rose, sandalwood and jasmine pure essential oils infused with rose quartz ' gorgeous for favours or bringing a little extra love to your tabletops.

The Lavender and Mandarin Calming Mist provides an antidote to those pre-wedding nerves, while the Chandra Midnight Oil will hydrate your skin and soothe your senses. Gift either to your guests as an extra token of thanks. We also love the Damask Rose and Vetivert Himalayan Bath Salts ' a heady blend that'll take bathtime to new spa-like heights. Chloe can create personal gift messages, placing your selection in a cotton drawstring bag that can also be personalised with an individually designed stamp.
