LET’S TALK WEDDING GIFT ETIQUETTE. HOW SHOULD A GUEST PICK THE PERFECT WEDDING GIFT?
When selecting a wedding gift, there are no strict rules to follow—it's all about being thoughtful and within your means. Start by considering your relationship with the couple; you'll likely spend more on close family or best friends than on colleagues or acquaintances. Using the wedding registry is a practical way to ensure your gift is something the couple truly wants or needs. However, if you’re close to the couple and know their tastes well, selecting a gift not on the registry can also be an option, adding a personal touch. Group gifts are also a fantastic option, especially for high-ticket items. Just ensure everyone contributing signs the card so the couple knows who to thank.

WE ARE IN THE THICK OF WEDDING SEASON. FROM FLOWERS TO WEDDING FAVOURS, IF YOU COULD GIVE ONE PIECE OF ADVICE TO A BRIDE-TO-BE WHAT WOULD IT BE?
As cliché as it sounds, pause, breathe, and enjoy the moment. Every bride dreams of a perfect wedding, but it's easy to get caught up in continuous improvements and nitpicking every detail. Remember, something might not (and probably will not) go as planned—but those little imperfections are what make your wedding uniquely yours. Cherish the last days of being a fiancée, embrace the nature of your wedding day as it unfolds, and be present in each moment.
