Yeh i would love debenhams vouchers if i was getting married. Lots of things to pick from. The argos deal right now is £40 giftcards for £30 so even better deal!

i love the towel cake idea but im planning on something similar for when baby is born which is only thing putting me off, - the thing is towels are practical and always are something people use

If you mean a nappy cake, don't do that either.

Just give them a cheque or vouchers so they can buy what they need.

Not read though every post yet but we lived together for 5 years (together 7/8 before we married). One of the first thing we bought as a couple was a 'Mr & Mrs Sweetilemon' door plaque. I do think this would be a lovely gift as a married couple as its nice but useful. Cinema tickets/meal vouchers are also a lovely idea. Bedding etc was a nice gift but you have to know the couples tastes in colour scheme...I would personally avoid gifting this although I did love the bedding we recieved. Check out the wedding & anniversary board for more ideas! Vouchers are always well recieved.

Only if somebody is changing their name!!

I recently got married and we'd been living together for 6/7 years. The best gifts were debenhams and John Lewis vouchers - I bought new pillows and pans with them which were much needed but they're things that are nice to choose for yourself.

I don't like gifting over money or gift cards
I did ask them but I got no response as to what they want
Probably be happy with just a card but wanted to get a minding

Notanewuser what's wrong with nappy cakes?
As for towel cakes it was one of my fave gifts the way it was presented I had never seen it before and white towels are used all time in my house

Sillybilly2001 is that offer in all argos stores or online I never knew they were doing thst

You mean giving.

A lot of people find those fake cake things really tacky and odd, and there are plenty of people who never use white towels, I don't.

Its up to you what you give (gift is a noun!) of course, and the couple should graciously accept, but if you want them to have nice new towels then a voucher for somewhere they can choose their own is ideal.

Argos have pulled this deal now for the shop gift cards. Only the restaurant and cinema cards are included now.
