Gifting your wedding guests with a bomboniere is a traditional way of thanking your friends and family for being a part of your marital union. While super thoughtful, often these gifts end up being left behind, or thrown out by the guests. Instead of the old fashioned idea of giving everyone yet another candle, why not come up with something thoughtful and unique to show your gratitude? With Marigold & Grey, a Washington, DC based company, you can order pre-designed, or custom curated gift boxes for a stress-free and beautifully executed gift giving experience.

Marigold & Grey started with a wedding focus (though since have expanded into corporate events and client appreciation gifting as well) and can do everything from welcome boxes to wedding party gifts, amenity boxes, and more. All you have to do is fill out an inquiry and questionnaire with your wedding details, and they’ll come up with an initial design for you, that you can then work on together to meet your exact vision!

One of the gift boxes that Marigold & Grey put together which we loved was a welcome bag for guests going to a wedding in the Dominican Republic. The rattan box included itineraries for the weekend, a variety of sunglasses, sunscreen, and a beach wrap, as well as some tasty snacks, all wrapped up in a neat bow with individualized notes.

Marigold & Grey also has pre-designed boxes, such as the “Will You Be My Bridesmaid?” or “Thank You For Being My Bridesmaid” gifts, which range from $75 – $144 USD. The decorative boxes include snacks of gourmet cardamom crisp cookies or organic raspberry cave cookies, champagne gummy bears, luxury candles, floral screen cleansing towelettes and letterpress notepads, all topped off with fresh greenery, floral fill, and a lovely satin ribbon to tie it all together. The larger packages also add a You Are Amazing mug, rose sangria bath bombs, nail polish, and a beautiful robe to wear. After the gift box is put together you can add a personalized hand-written message on stunning stationary.

The success of this business has allowed the founder and CEO to become a public speaker, talking to groups at conferences, retreats, and workshops, as well as on podcasts, and blogs, on how to become a successful female entrepreneur, and we absolutely love to showcase businesses run by amazing women! Her expertise on growing a small business, positive client experiences, authenticity in social media, networking, and mentoring are all admirable achievements, and we think you’ll love working with them to provide your guests or wedding party with a memorable ‘thank you’ for taking part in your big day!
