Champagne coupes to toast all the milestones ahead of them, a silver-plated frame with a picture of the happy couple, coordinating robes to unwind in after planning the whole thing – anything that will bring back memories of their special day will be appreciated.

Practical pieces shouldn’t be overlooked for the purely decorative – they’re often so welcome and quite easy to get right. It might be brand-new, matching dinnerware and a recipe book for their first meal in their new place, some home fragrance to make it feel like theirs, or perhaps the cashmere throw they wouldn’t splurge on themselves.

Cosy blankets, soft sleepsuits and baby sleeping bags aren’t just useful, they can be kept as forever reminders of those early days or passed on to siblings and friends. If you can’t decide on just one, our handpicked gift sets offer a selection of newborn essentials in mini keepsake suitcases.

Our gifts for her are special on their own, or even better with a little personal touch added. Think pyjamas paired with a book to read in bed, a travel wellness set plus a guidebook to whatever destination they’ll be visiting next, or a floral fragrance with a bunch of blooms for those who love flowers – but don’t often buy them themselves.

For toddlers who can’t cuddle up in bed without a soft toy (or seven), they don’t come any more huggable than Jellycat’s. A picture book might be just the thing for little ones who never miss a bedtime story, while for playtime, our wooden toys can help spark imaginations for make-believe games.
