Similar to temporary tattoos, wedding matches and matchboxes are a fun and unique addition to any wedding or hen party. Not like your average matchboxes, wedding matchboxes come in a variety of attractive designs, many of which can be customised for a truly unique wedding favour or even hen party accessory. Think outside the (match)box and fill yours with mini sweets, glitter, confetti or anything else small enough to fit into each individual box. Matchboxes can be bought online or if you have the time they are a relatively easy DIY. We've gathered our favourite places to pick them up* and 4 easy to follow matchbox DIYs...
