The Perfect Pear Candle Takeout Box*
Leave this wedding favor on each place setting for your guests to take home.

Let your guests know you two are the perfect pair with this unique candle favor. Each clear Chinese takeout box comes with a scented yellow pear and is decorated on the outside with satin ribbon. A twisted rope handle is also attached to the box so your wedding guests can carry it home, which sounds like a small detail until you watch a hundred people leave a reception with both hands full. The handle is the reason this favor actually makes it to the car.
The Perfect Pear Candle Takeout Box works because you can see straight through it. There is no unwrapping, no guessing, no card needed to explain the idea. Guests spot the pear through the clear box, read the pun, and smile at the couple who thought of it. Then the box sits at the place setting looking like a little parcel, ribbon on the outside, handle up, waiting to be picked up at the end of the night.
Add our personalized favor tag for a special touch. The tag is the piece that carries your wording, personalized in-house by HansonEllis, so your two names, the date, or a line of your own rides home with every guest. It turns a clever favor into your favor, and it is the part people keep in a drawer long after the candle has burned down.
These candle pears are perfect for garden inspired weddings or bridal showers. They also suit an engagement party, an anniversary dinner, a baby shower with a soft table, a Valentine's evening for two, or any spring or summer celebration where a scented yellow pear belongs more than a chocolate would. Set one at every place setting, or stack them on a table by the door for guests to take on the way out.
Choose your quantity above, add your tag wording, and give your guests something they can actually carry home.
