Wedding Gifts

For the day itself, and for the anniversary that follows it.

Soap flowers do the job real flowers cannot at a wedding: they go in the post weeks early, they survive a car boot in August, and they are still on the shelf a year later. The white and ivory boxes are the ones people send for the wedding; the reds and the rose quartz are for the anniversary.

The soap flower boxes arrive in their own box with no prices inside, so they can go straight onto the table with the cards. If you are buying for the couple's new home rather than the day, housewarming gifts is the shelf next door, and the boxed sets cover the same ground with less choosing.
