Gifts That Keep On Giving

Gifts That Keep On Giving

Q We're getting married soon, and our guests are asking for some gift ideas; what would you suggest?
A Prashant Patel says: Experiences are great gifts! A gift certificate for a hot air balloon ride, a cooking class, or a weekend getaway is a memorable gift that the couple can enjoy together.

Personalised gifts always go down a treat. A custom-made game with the couple's last name or initials, a framed print of their engagement photo or a set of engraved wine glasses are all thoughtful gifts they can cherish for years to come.

Charitable donations are becoming very popular. If the couple is registered with a charity, consider donating in their honour. This is a great way to give back to a cause they care about.

Outdoor entertaining essentials are great choices. A fire pit for roasting marshmallows under the stars, a hammock for relaxing in the backyard or a set of games for summer barbecues are all perfect gifts for couples who love spending time outdoors.

There are subscription boxes for almost everything, from craft beer to beauty products to gourmet food. Choose a subscription box you think the couple would enjoy, and they'll get a new surprise each month.

If you’re crafty, consider making a handmade gift for the couple, such as a knitted blanket, a painted picture, or a piece of jewellery.
