In Indian weddings, there's a beautiful tradition of gifting sweets, gourmets, dry fruits, and more — a heartfelt token of love and appreciation to the guests for celebrating the special occasion with us.

When it comes to wedding preparations, staying on budget becomes a challenge. Be it clothes, the venue, food, or jewellery — somehow, expenses always exceed expectations. It's something we all experience. But here’s the good news: with Grownex, you can stay within your budget when it comes to sweet box gifting.
Yes, we’re talking about gifting sweet boxes — the very term reminds us of yummy sweets, mouth-watering delicacies, gourmet snacks, and dry fruits. But how do we keep it elegant and affordable?
At Grownex Packaging, we offer simple, practical hacks to create beautiful sweet boxes at home— on a budget! As a packaging manufacturer, we understand what goes into designing a great sweet box. And the first and foremost point is — it should be budget-friendly.
With Grownex, you get a wide variety of sweet boxes at competitive prices, tailored to your needs and budget.
Let’s explore how you can create a beautiful, budget wedding sweet box at home with Grownex Packaging:
Step 1: Select a Theme for Your Sweet Box
At Grownex, we offer a range of elegant themes that instantly elevate your gifting.
Pichwai Theme: Inspired by Lord Krishna, with intricate artwork of cows, lotus flowers, and divine elements. These boxes are aesthetically designed to please the eye and offer a luxurious feel for Krishna lovers.
Rajasthani Theme: Rajasthan — the land of royalty — brings a rich variety of sweets. Our Rajasthani-themed boxes feature dulha-dulhan motifs, traditional monuments, and rich designs, reflecting true regal charm.
Floral Print Theme: Florals never go out of style. Our boxes come with pastel hues, vibrant colours, and golden foil accents that make them timeless and elegant.
Elephant Theme: Elephants are considered auspicious in Indian tradition. We offer various designs featuring elephant prints to make your gift box feel as special as the occasion.
Mandala Theme: This artistic design, inspired by rangoli, adds an ethnic and aesthetic charm to the sweet box — perfect for a traditional yet classy touch.
Customisation is also available — match the box to your wedding theme, and we’ll make it happen!
Step 2: Choose the Contents — Be Smart & Creative
Once the box is finalised, it’s time to fill it up — deliciously, and within budget.
1. Only Sweets
Instead of 1 kg of a single sweet like kaju katli (which can be expensive), add four varieties in smaller quantities. It offers variety, creativity, and stays budget-friendly.
2. Sweets + Namkeen
We offer boxes with partitions where you can mix sweets with namkeen or mathri. A clever combination of sweet and savoury keeps it interesting and affordable.
3. Dry Fruits
For dry fruit gifting, choose our jar boxes — elegant containers where you can add small portions of different dry fruits. It looks luxurious but stays within budget.
4. Chocolates + Sweets + Savouries
Our variation trays are perfect for this combo. Add a little of everything — chocolates, sweets, savouries — to create a luxurious yet budget-friendly hamper.
It’s not about how much you add, but how creatively you present it — and that’s where Grownex helps!

Step 3: Pack It Right
Now that your box is ready:
Place heavier items at the corners
Keep laddoos at the centre
Make sure namkeen is sealed properly
These small tips ensure your box looks neat and travels well.
Step 4: Add a Personal Touch
Add a metal, MDF, or PVC plate with your wedding hashtag or a thank-you message.
At Grownex, we offer custom motifs and tags to make your sweet box more personal and memorable.
