A note from Grace
Gifts to grow old with
A wedding gift is one of the few presents people keep for decades, so I have chosen pieces in natural materials like linen, wood and stone that tend to age well. If you are joining a group gift, the investment pieces at the end are a lovely place to start.
Grace
For the bedroom
Linen bedding for a shared bed
Natural linen softens with every wash. If you do not know their bedroom, I would choose a neutral colour.
For the table
Serving pieces for hosting together
Platters, bowls, jugs and glass sets for the first dinners as a married couple.
Lighting and accents
Lamps and mirrors for a shared home
Warm lighting and a good mirror change a room more than almost anything else.
The big gift
Investment pieces for a group gift
A dining table, sideboard or armchair to build a home around. Ideal if a few of you are clubbing together.
