Perfect 40th present for the lady of my life.
I have about £500 - £700 to spend on a special present for my wife. If you knew your hubby / boyfriend was spending this amount what would be top of your wish list. The girls at work are telling me jewellery but she is dripping in the stuff. Anyother special idea out there or is it another trip to mapin & webb !! Thank you

Because we have such a large yet close family, we are looking at around 80+ people at the wedding breakfast. I have looked at wedding receptions and they all seem to have their own menu.
