Lilac Blue Weddings
At Lilac Blue Weddings (www.lilacblueweddings.com) we have decided that we love hampers and think that they make great wedding gifts. So we have created some fabulous Wedding Luxury Hampers to add to your gift list, although they can also be bought as a gift, if the couple doesn’t have a wedding gift list with Lilac Blue Weddings.
The large ‘Home Hamper’ to celebrate wedded bliss in the marital home costs £550 and includes a collection of gifts all beautifully presented in a stunning leather trunk. Inside you will find champagne, a pair of crystal flutes, an Agroria scented candle and Aspinal playing cards. There is no better way to enjoy your wedding photos than seeing them in this stunning leather album, which is the perfect present for any newlyweds. Just to add a touch of glamour to the Home Hamper you will find a seriously cosy fake fur blanket …perfect for that relaxing night in!
The ‘Welcome Back Hamper’ (£85) for the return from honeymoon contains the all-important Champagne, Aspinal playing cards and a rose scented candle from Timothy Han. All of these gorgeous gifts are beautifully packed up in a faux leather box perfect for storing your wedding keepsakes after the Champagne has been enjoyed of course!
For the Foodies out there, choose from one of three luxury food hampers that will make wedded bliss even more enjoyable. The largest one at £250, is full of yummy treats, including Mrs Huddlestone’s Rich chocolate rum fruit & nut cake and her famous Strawberry & rose petal jam, shortbread biscuits, and an eclectic array of Rococo ‘Dove’ dinner party chocolates. For the more savoury, taste some vintage Godminster cheddar and Daylesford’s butternut chutney with their Manuka honey oat savoury biscuits, plus a wonderful selection of Tuscany’s finest food producer, Seggiano – rich balsamic vinegar & olive oil plus the most amazing Antipasti and Cantuccini biscuits. Not to forget the drinks, starting with Green tea, but soon followed by Latour Grand Ardeche 2006 and Domaine la Grave de Bertin 1999, some Organic Sloe Gin and to celebrate properly Pol Roger Champagne.
The medium sized Food Hamper is priced at £150 and has a similar selection, but without the champagne and gin and a slightly smaller selection of Italian goodies. The smallest food hamper at £75, has a lovely selection of tea & wine, cake and biscuits, not forgetting the cheese & chutney and the fabulous strawberry & rose petal jam.
Alternative hampers, include ‘The Sportsman‘ for £550 if you both enjoy the shooting season or the top end ‘Romanov’ hamper for £950. If you like all things Russian, you will enjoy this leather trunk filled with Snow Queen Grain Vodka complete with Dartington shot glasses, Cristal Champagne, exclusive playing cards, Ian Fleming’s ‘From Russia with Love’ and a fabulous fake fur throw. Separate Gentlemen’s and Ladies’ hampers are also available.

Gift service Lilac Blue, a sister company of Quintessentially Gifts, is re-launching its wedding list service this autumn – Lilac Blue Weddings (www.lilacblueweddings.com).
Lilac Blue was set up in 2002 as a personal shopping service and Lilac Blue Weddings came to life when a customer requested to have her wedding list with the company a few years later. Lilac Blue Weddings soon established itself as an exclusive service to those in search of unusual gifts and excellent customer service.
Couples can choose from a wide range of products for the kitchen & dining room, bedroom & bathroom and the living room; lots of gorgeous gifts for garden & terrace and an amazing range of travel and lifestyle products. Lilac Blue Weddings works with all the major brands, but is also happy to add products by up to five new suppliers to each wedding list.
As a result couples can have a list that is truly mirroring their lifestyle and they can add some very unusual gifts to their list and personalise it to their hearts’ delight. They can either set up their list online or meet their Account Manager either in their own home (if they are London based) or in the Central London office of Lilac Blue. They can make changes and add to the list at all times and their Account Manger will be in regular contact to help with any questions that may arise. The Account Manager also searches for additional gifts, which may not be online (think antique silver) and makes sure that the wedding list always looks fabulous so that the guests have a wide choice of gifts and price points.
Once the list is ordered, there will be one free delivery to get all the gifts to the couple’s new home – they will all be beautifully wrapped and come with hand-written messages, to make the gift opening as exciting as it should be!
