The Best Wedding Gift List

jojoward79

I am getting married in less than 1 month now! My main gift list is so superb that I want to tell as many people about it as possible.

The perfect end to a perfect wedding. Subscribe to this charity list for free and let your guests make donations to important charities, of your choice, as a gift. And the best thing is that they get to chose what their donation pays for.

EXAMPLE: For just 27.00GBP a guest could pay for a small child to have cataracts removed from both eyes and be able to see again!

Better than toasters in my opinion.

That's very selfless and generous of you. Well done :T

I think I'd like pressies though

freebie_junkie

That is, indeed, very generous of you.

I, personally, could do with getting married again to replace all my old tat for new stuff :rotfl:

All joking aside - may there be a place for you on the clouds above.... xx

Thanks everyone...altho trust me, Im no angel! :A

I also have a john lewis list with a few bits and bobs on to remember the day by! Most of our guests think were nuts...but they have decided how much they wanna spend in total and then split it between the 2 lists.

My 'Groom' and I are going to have such a special day anyway....so its nice to be able to help our favorite charities too.

Hopefully more people will add it as an extra...every penny counts.

It is a lovely idea.

I was struggling with the wedding list options to start with because we've lived together for so long and have already got all the essentials. In the end, we decided to set up a list at Debenhems because people did want to give us presents.

Debenhams also give out a £50 giftcard just for setting up the list, so there wouldn't be anything to stop you setting up a list there and offering the charity gift option to your guests as well. Best of both worlds!

Hi Jo B, we were tempted to go for the free 50 quid, but unfortunatly our local branch has the worst customer service in the world I think and I ended up so insulted that I gave up. Im sure they are not all like this though!! Enjoy spending your free 50.00! :beer:
