Sweating it out over the fact you haven’t finished (read: started) the Christmas prep? I hear you! Bridal Editor’s last minute bridal gift guide is made with the last minute folk in mind.
While some may be lounging about drinking vintage champagne on velvet sofas (cos’ they’ve already wrapped the gifts, erected the tree and probably (somehow) prepped the Christmas dinner) others (i.e. me) are still running around trying to tick off the work to-do list, answer emails and forage for gift-appropriate items. If this strikes a chord with you too, you’re in luck. I’ve somehow managed to squeeze out (between all the foraging) a carefully curated bridal gift guide for the festive season. Bursting with bride-worthy gifts (including Lulu Guinness loveliness, a Substack recommendation and a Rattan Bar Drinks Stand) this is the festive gift guide you need in your life bride-to-be.
P.S. And don’t forget to copy, paste and share this URL with your partner-to-be – now THAT’S what we call a hint.
Ready? In no particular order, let’s go…
