We'd just like to start by saying that we really don't expect or need any gifts from you, our much loved family and friends. We want to celebrate our marriage with you, and if you would like to join us that's really present enough. However, lots of people have been asking us about this so we thought we'd better put a few options out there. Mainly you've been asking us with regards to the fact that we're leaving the country for two years about three weeks after we're married, which really does exclude us taking much with us for practical reasons. So, if you would still like to make us a gift, we've put together these options:
- You could get us something really really small we can fit in a suitcase.
- You can wait two years to make your gift - added incentive for us to come home!
- You can buy us gift vouchers from our wedding list we've set up at John Lewis. We'll keep them safe and then re-feather our nest when we get back home. You can start buying them from the 1st of October for eight weeks in three ways: online at johnlewis.com, by calling 0845 600 2202 or by visiting any John Lewis shop. Our gift list number is 476973.
And finally, we know one or two of you are making things for us. Being making sort of folk, we value greatly the time and effort you've put into this. We will make every effort to either find space in our luggage, or store them very carefully till we return.
