-Presentation helps the impression. A neutral, well-put-together box needs no wrapping and photographs well if the new owners are the sort to post about the day. It also avoids the guesswork of matching a gift to a colour scheme you have not seen yet, which is the risk with anything decorative for a home.
+Presentation matters less for this recipient than for most, but a clean, uncluttered box still reads better than fussy wrapping he will only bin. The chocolate is the gift; the packaging just needs to get it there in good order.
-Personalised chocolate has quietly become one of the easier ways to give a gift that feels specific to the person receiving it. Two formats do most of the work: the photo box, which prints an image onto the lid or sleeve, and the message box, which carries a short line of text. Knowing how each behaves helps you pick the right one.
+Wedding favours occupy an odd space. They should feel considered without dominating the budget, and ideally they earn a place in a guest's coat pocket rather than the bin. Chocolate manages both, provided you choose it with a little care.
-Timing is easy compared with weddings or corporate orders, but if you want personalisation, a new address or a short message for instance, allow a few extra days rather than ordering the night before.
+For the mid-range milestones, a tenth or a twentieth, the occasion earns a fuller collection. These are the anniversaries people tend to mark with a dinner or a small gathering, and a larger box suits both the moment and the room. Personalisation with the year or a couple's names lifts it from a nice box to a keepsake of a specific date.

Chocolate manages both, provided you choose it with a little care.
+Choose a full hamper for the scale the milestone deserves, lean on a maker with real provenance, and add a personal message from the team. Marked that way, a [[https://www.businessworld.ie/news-from-ireland/Sweet-Tesco-UK-deal-for-Lily-O-Brien-5468.html|Lily O'Brien's chocolate]] hamper gives a career the send-off it warrants and leaves the whole office something to share on the day.
-One honest note that applies everywhere. If the recipient asks about ingredients or dietary detail, point them to the published product information rather than answering yourself.
+Lead time is where bulk orders demand respect. Handmade chocolate and any personalisation both need runway, so treat six to eight weeks before the wedding as the point to place a firm order, and stretch that further for dates near Christmas when production is busiest. Confirm your numbers only after the RSVP deadline has passed, and give yourself a few days of margin for the guest who replies late.
-For staff, share bags do a different job. They spread across a team, they suit a break room, and they let you thank a group without ranking anyone. Ordered in volume, they keep the per-head cost sensible while still feeling like a genuine gesture rather than a token.
+Anniversaries come in a range of sizes, and a gift that fits a first year rarely fits a fortieth. Chocolate scales neatly across all of them, provided you match the collection and its personalisation to the milestone you are actually marking.
