Macarons have become a wedding staple for a good reason: they look elegant on a dessert table, they travel well as favors, and with custom printing, they can carry a monogram, a date, or even a photo. Here is what to know before you order.
Ways Couples Use Custom Printed Macarons
- Favors: individually boxed macarons printed with initials or the wedding date
- Dessert table centerpieces: a full tiered display in the wedding color palette
- Welcome bags: a small printed box waiting in each guest's hotel room
- Save-the-dates or invitations: a printed macaron sent alongside or instead of a paper card
What You'll Need to Get Started
- Your color palette, ideally with hex codes if you have a wedding design already in progress
- A rough guest count, plus a buffer of 10 to 15% for RSVPs that come in late
- Your wedding date and whether you need delivery, pickup, or on-site setup
Timeline for Wedding Orders
We recommend placing wedding orders at least 4 to 6 weeks ahead, longer during peak wedding season (late spring through early fall), since color-matching and monogram artwork take time to get exactly right.
A Note on Color Matching
Edible ink on a macaron shell will not match a screen color 1:1, especially for very specific palettes. We recommend a test print ahead of the full order for anything color-critical, like a monogram in a precise shade.
