Why Handcrafted Return Gifts are the Top Choice for Indian Weddings in 2026
TL;DR: Generic wedding favors are a thing of the past. Discover why sustainable, artist-made gifts like terracotta planters and jewellery boxes are trending for modern Indian celebrations.
Planning a wedding is an art form, and the "Return Gift" or "Sagan" is the final note of that masterpiece. In an era where sustainability is a priority, modern couples are moving away from plastic-wrapped sweets and toward meaningful, long-lasting keepsakes.
1. The Shift Toward Sustainability
Today’s guests value eco-friendly choices. Hand-painted terracotta planters from ATLA are a favorite for Mehendi and Haldi ceremonies. They represent growth and life, providing a "Green" gift that guests can actually nurture in their own homes.
2. Utility Wins Over Novelty
The best gift is one that doesn't end up in a drawer. Jewellery boxes or wooden desk organisers are practical. Every time your guest reaches for their earrings or pens, they are reminded of your special day. At Anant – The Limitless Art, we ensure every piece is durable and water-resistant for daily use.
3. Personalization and Storytelling
When you gift something handcrafted, you aren't just giving an object; you are giving a story. Our pieces are painted by local artisans in Pune, carrying the heritage of Indian craftsmanship. For bulk orders, we offer customization options—allowing you to match the color palette of your wedding or add a personalized thank-you note.
4. Supporting the "Vocal for Local" Movement
By choosing ATLA for your wedding favors, you are directly supporting the artisan community. In a world of mass production, a hand-painted gift stands out as a premium, thoughtful choice that shows you truly care about your guests.
