Wedding favours run on two questions that couples always ask and rarely find a straight answer to: how many chocolates per guest, and when to order. Both have practical answers.

Think about what the thank you is actually for. A colleague who covered for you, a neighbour who took a delivery, a friend who helped you move: these are favours returned, and the correct scale is warm but light. A mid-size box says thank you clearly without making the other person feel they now owe you something back. It is the everyday workhorse of considered gifting.

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.

Provenance gives the gift a bit of weight. Lily O'Brien's has handcrafted its chocolates in Newbridge, Co. Kildare since 1992, so a large box arrives as something made with care rather than grabbed off a shelf. It is a detail worth mentioning as you hand it over, since a gift that comes from somewhere specific always feels more considered.

Skip the flowers, choose a large mixed collection, and add his name if you want the personal touch. It is a practical gift that suits almost any man and almost any occasion, which is precisely why it works when the usual ideas have run out.
