An imperial addition to royal wedding
Huddersfield company Macbey Metal Packaging made custom tins embossed with the couple’s initials and passed these on to Elland-based Joseph Dobson and Sons Ltd who filled them with Mint Imperials made in their West Yorkshire factory.
The tins were then given to the wedding guests before the service.

“I understand their wedding was plastic-free and it was good to be able to contribute to that.”
