Wedding Gift Experiences

Why is an experience better than a gift?

Many couples these days will have set up home long before their engagement and so the tradition of buying homewares no longer works for them.

By having an experience as a gift, you are creating memories that will last a lifetime.

If you already have all the basics covered in your home an experience is a great way to keep the wedding excitement going.

Maybe there’s something you’ve always wanted to do? Or a passion or a hobby that you have that you’ve always wanted to explore?

Here are some ideas to get you started!

Gin Making Experience

A gin-making experience will be a dream gift for a gin-loving couple. You will learn all about how gin is made and you get to create your very own bottle of gin to take home.

There are lots of places you can go gin-making, try it in Staffordshire at Nelson’s Gin and Vodka School or combine with a trip to London at the City of London Distillery.

An alternative gift for gin lovers is a gin subscription box which is an exciting monthly delivery containing a bottle of craft gin, savoury treats and ingredients to make gin cocktails.

Spa Day For Two

What better way to relax and release all the stress of planning a wedding than to enjoy a rejuvenating spa experience together?

A spa treatment such as a massage or facial will usually be included and for ultimate luxury you could include dinner and an overnight stay!

Cookery School

If you both love cooking you may choose a cookery school experience.

There are lots to choose from. Including The River Cottage and celebrity chefs such as James Martin, Jamie Oliver and Rick Stein.

Hot Air Balloon Flight

Experience a thrilling flight together in an iconic Virgin Hot Air Balloon, available from Virgin Experience Days.

Wine Club Subscription
