Daphne Groeneveld Shares Her Go-To Picks
February 2024
From covers of Vogue to closing shows, Daphne Groeneveld is an iconic name in the fashion game. We sat down with the Dutch model to get the inside scoop on all things weddings, from bachelorettes to party favours and, of course, gifting.
WHAT IS THE MOST MEMORABLE WEDDING GIFT YOU RECEIVED?
We got very spoiled after our wedding so it’s hard to choose. Friends of ours took us on a boat trip to Croatia which was absolutely incredible and my best friend took us to Mallorca which were both trips of a lifetime. When it comes to a physical gifts, I loved receiving a Polaroid camera with Polaroids and my best friend got a portrait made of all the bridesmaids.

YOUR BACHELORETTE GIFTS WERE TO-DIE-FOR. WHAT WAS IMPORTANT FOR YOU WHEN CURATING THEM?
I lovepersonalised giftsand gifts that the girls will use in their daily life and be reminded of the wedding. I got them all abook with personalised photos, robes and bathing suits with their names on it and a necklace and shoes with their initials. In the boxes I also included face masks andcandles. I wanted to make sure everyone felt comfortable and confident walking down the aisle so I ahd my bridesmaid dresses custom made by Galia Lahav.
If I were to do it all again from The Go-To, these are what I would gift them:
LET’S TALK WEDDING FAVOURS. WHAT DID YOU GIFT AND WHY?
It was a destination wedding so doing wedding favours was a little difficult with everyone at different hotels. So instead we tried doing personal touches at the wedding, my favourite was custom portraits of all of our guests. Since it was a long table and not everyone knew each other it was a really cute conversation opener.
WE ARE WELL AND TRULY APPROACHING WEDDING SEASON. ANY TIPS FOR BRIDES-TO-BE IN THE RUN UP TO THEIR BIG DAY?
I would say find a wedding planner you love and trust. If you're looking for a wedding planner in Italy I worked with Amber. She was a huge help. What helped me a lot is creating mood boards for decor and flowers, making playlists for the band/DJ so they know the vibe you're looking for and the wedding planner will help you with the rest. So much organisation goes into planning a wedding, every single detail is thought out so with all the planning in mind my biggest advice is to enjoy the actual day. I remember thinking right before walking down the aisle, what’s the worst thing that can happen? I'm about to marry to my best friend and every person I love came together to celebrate us. So my number one tip would be to really soak it in and have the best day with your loved ones.
