Well I've just learned something new!
"Sugar coated almonds are used as wedding favours for very specific reasons. Almonds come with a bittersweet taste, which is thought to signify life’s up and downs. The sugar coating highlights the wish that the couple’s married life will be sweeter rather than bitter. In Italy, five sugar coated almonds are typically handed out to guests representing health, wealth, cheerfulness, fertility, and long life"

Well, it was not as if we were a young couple starting off in life and we needed a third toaster or a fourth set of coasters. And attending weddings is expensive - particularly if you have to travel, without having to think of a gift. We just wanted our mates there for a proper good knees up. We just pleased that so many of our friends came from such a long way to share it with us. That was all we wanted.
