Looking for wedding invites hampers in Delhi NCR? The short answer: a wedding invitation hamper is a box, tray or basket that carries your wedding card along with sweets, dry fruits or freshly baked treats, so the invitation itself becomes a gift. Choose one design for your whole guest list, size it up for close relatives, match it to your card's colours and add the couple's monogram. Order your invitation hampers 6–8 weeks before the wedding, so they're ready when you start distributing cards. Below you'll find 10 invites hamper designs, what to put inside, prices, how many to order and delivery tips across Delhi, Gurgaon (Gurugram) and Noida.

What is a wedding invites hamper?

A wedding invites hamper (also called a wedding invitation hamper or invite box) presents your wedding card with something sweet. Instead of handing over a card alone, families send it in a keepsake box or tray with mithai, dry fruits, chocolates or baked treats. It makes the invitation feel personal, shows care for each guest, and the box often stays in the guest's home long after the wedding.

The very first invitation, carried to the family's elders, is often called the shahi chitthi and is usually a larger showpiece. For ideas on that, read our guide to shahi chitthi hampers in Delhi. This guide focuses on invitation hampers for the rest of your guest list.

Tips for wedding invites hampers

  • Share your card design early so the hamper colours, fonts and monogram match.
  • Protect the card with a sleeve or a slot in the box so it isn't bent.
  • Choose treats that travel well, such as cookies, dry fruits and chocolates, since invites are often carried across the city.
  • Label each hamper with the guest's name for easy distribution.
