Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker*
Looking to shake up the place with some music?
The Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker is a favor with a job to do. Made by hand from a coconut shell set on a bamboo handle, it has the warm, woody rattle of something grown rather than manufactured, and it does what a printed napkin or a paper fan never manages: it gets guests participating. Put one at every place setting and the first toast turns into a shaking, laughing, unmistakably alive moment that your photographer will thank you for.
Because each shaker is handmade, no two coconut shells are exactly alike, so a table of them has the easy, gathered look of something brought back from a trip rather than ordered in a box. That natural character is the whole charm. Set against linen, raffia or a bare wooden table, the coconut and bamboo read instantly as beach, island, tropical or garden, and they stay in a guest's hand rather than being left behind on the chair.
Personalization is included, and this is where the favor becomes a keepsake. Add up to two lines of your own wording, personalized in-house by HansonEllis, in business since 1999, so every shaker carries your names, your date, or the line your guests will still be quoting at breakfast. "Shake It Up" over "Maria & Diego 6.20.26" turns a noisemaker into a save-the-date guests take home. A company name over a tour date turns it into a souvenir that keeps working long after the event ends.
Use them as the send-off in place of bells or sparklers, as the kissing-game cue at the reception, as escort-card weights at a destination dinner, as the party favor at a luau, fiesta or milestone birthday, or as the welcome-bag surprise at a resort or convention. They travel well, they cost nothing extra in shipping weight per guest, and unlike bubbles or confetti nobody has to clean them up.
Add your two lines of personalization above, choose your quantity, and give your guests something to shake.
Please note: Item is sold individually.

Which one should I choose
Favor shopping for a tropical or beach event usually comes down to what you want guests holding during the reception.
| Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker | Choose it when you want the favor to be part of the party itself: a noisemaker for the send-off and the kissing game that doubles as a personalized keepsake. |
|---|---|
| A plain, unpersonalized maraca | Choose it only if you want noise and nothing else; without your names and date it will not survive the drive home. |
| A paper favor such as a fan or printed napkin | Choose it for a purely decorative table; it will not get guests participating and it is usually left on the chair. |
For a tropical or beach celebration, the Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker is the pick, because it earns its place twice: once during the party and once on the shelf at home.
Ordering the Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker for weddings and events
Ordering the Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker for a wedding, a company party or a resort event is simple, because the shaker is sold individually and there is no minimum. Count your guests, order that quantity, and add a few spares for the head table and the photographer. If the wording changes from piece to piece, for example a guest name and table number on each, order the full quantity and email your list to [email protected] after ordering so it can be matched to your order. Company and resort logos are handled as a custom order: send a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected], where a logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be reproduced on a natural shell. Standard production is 5–10 business days, rush 3–5 and expedite 1–3, plus 2–5 days US shipping; for a wedding, order 3–6 months ahead. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
Questions shoppers ask about the Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker
Is the Personalized Coconut Maracas Handmade Bamboo Shaker sold as a pair or singly?
It is sold individually. Order one per guest, or two per guest if you want your guests holding a maraca in each hand.
What is it made of?
It is handmade from a coconut shell with a bamboo handle, so every piece has slightly different natural grain and shell markings.
Is personalization included, or is it an extra?
Personalization is included on this listing. Type your wording into the personalization field before adding the shaker to your cart.
How many lines of wording can I put on it?
Up to two lines. The listing does not set a character cap, but short lines read best on a curved coconut shell, so keep each line to a few words.
How is the wording applied?
Each shaker is personalized in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999. Nothing is sent out to a third party.
Can every shaker have a different name on it?
Yes. Order the full quantity you need, then email your list of names to [email protected] after ordering so it can be matched to your order.
Can I put our company or resort logo on them?
Logos are handled as a custom order. Email a vector file (.eps, .ai, .cdr, .pdf or .svg) or a high-resolution image to [email protected]. A logo setup fee applies and not every logo can be reproduced on a natural shell.
Can I see a proof of the wording first?
Yes. Proofs are optional and available on request for a $35-55 service fee per proof, and a proof adds extra days to production. Changes after a proof has been sent carry a $40 minimum updating fee, so check spelling and dates before ordering. Ask in the order notes or call Customer Support at 310-878-9429.
Is there a minimum order?
No. Order a single shaker or enough for a 250-guest reception. For bulk pricing, please contact [email protected].
How far ahead should I order for a wedding?
Standard production is 5 to 10 business days plus 2 to 5 days US shipping, with rush (3 to 5 days) and expedite (1 to 3 days) available, but for a wedding order 3 to 6 months ahead so the favors are in hand well before the week of the event.
Do you ship coconut maracas internationally?
International shipping is by request. The shopping cart calculates US shipping only and international orders cannot be rushed, so email [email protected] for a quote.
Can I return them if my guest count changes?
Personalized items are made to order and are final sale unless defective, so confirm your count before ordering. Non-personalized items can be returned within 14 days.
