Thinking outside of the Gift Box
Planning a wedding gives a couple a fantastic opportunity to be creative. But the expression of that creativity doesn’t need to be limited to your choice of flowers, venue décor or wedding dress design – you can think creatively when it comes to your wedding gift registry too.Dreading the thought of trawling through a department store amongst the masses, barcode stick in hand, trying to agree on which household items you both want without breaking into a huge argument? Worried that, once registered, you might just become a ‘number’ and not a ‘name’ to said store? At a dead end because all your friends and family have requested you set up a registry so they know what to buy for you, but you feel you already have everything for the home? Concerned about your overseas guests – how can they easily buy/bring gifts to the wedding?
The answer to all your problems lies in the relatively new and exciting solution of the independent, online registry service, and The Wedding Gift List is fast establishing itself as the most stylish and personal wedding registry specialist in SA.
Register for free and then set up your List online, in the comfort of your own home and in your own time. Take comfort in the fact that you are an important client and will receive, if wanted, expert personal advice and specialist knowledge from an experienced gift consultant. Enjoy the range of available gift options – over 2000 from 40 well known, reputable brands. Plus there’s the pleasant surprise of being able to add different gift options to your List, if you have all those household items already – like a spa experience, a trip to the Bush, a charity donation, classic board games or even make use of our Honeymoon Registry where guests can contribute to the cost of your dream holiday! And it’s a breeze for your guests; all they have to do is access your online List, choose a gift and buy it online (or over the phone for the more IT challenged!). They don’t even need to worry about wrapping or delivery, we take care of all of that, delivering all your gifts directly to your door after the wedding.
It’s the new way forward for gift registries in South Africa – come on now, let’s all start thinking outside of the gift box! For more info please visit www.weddinggiftlist.co.za or call 021 851 1501
