What are some wedding favour ideas for a wedding in Scotland or Northern Ireland?

A wedding in Scotland or Northern Ireland is a chance to share local flavours and crafts with your guests. Mini bottles of whisky are a classic Scottish favour, and you can choose a single malt from the region where you're marrying. Pair it with a small piece of shortbread or a tablet, a traditional sweet treat. Wrap them in tartan ribbon or a small piece of tartan fabric for a personal touch. Heather honey is another lovely option, especially if you can source it locally.

For Northern Ireland, think about local produce like Irish soda bread mix in a small jar, or a mini bottle of cider from a local orchard. You could also give out a small tin of butter biscuits or a packet of potato bread mix. A personalised thistle badge or a small shamrock charm makes a keepsake that guests can wear or display.

If you want something less edible, consider a small candle with a scent inspired by the landscape, like heather or sea salt. Or a tiny bottle of Scottish heather ale. Remember to check if your venue allows alcohol as favours, and consider that some guests may not drink. Always have a non-alcoholic alternative, like a small jar of local jam or a packet of tea. The key is to choose something that feels authentic to the place and meaningful to you as a couple.
