It’s the season of love in Edmonton, and the 2022 wedding season is upon us! Whether you’re attending a wedding or bridal shower this summer, give your congratulations in a unique way that won’t be found at a registry. Weddings and bridal showers...they're stressful. There's so much going on, you might not even know what to give as a gift! That's why gift baskets are the perfect solution for any wedding or bridal shower.

Gift baskets are great for any special occasion. If you’re planning to give someone a gift basket for their wedding or bridal shower, you should know there are many reasons why you should do it.

 

Make it personal.

Whether your gift is for someone who likes salty, sweet, savoury or a little bit of everything, a gift basket is a great option for people who want to give something extra special to their soon-to-be-wed loved ones with added sentimental value. With a variety of options, don’t be afraid to get creative with your basket, and put together a personalized gift to congratulate the newly wedded couple.

 

Great for folks on a budget.

Bridal showers, and just about anything to do with weddings can be expensive, including the items listed on the newlywed’s registry lists. Sometimes that can be intimidating when it comes to gift buying for these events. But it doesn’t have to be! Gift baskets can be tailored to whatever your budget may be. They come in numerous sizes and can contain special items that won't break the bank, yet will still make a wonderfully sentimental gift for your loved ones. You can always combine your budget with another wedding guest to create a collaborative gift!

 

They’re fun to open.

Receiving any gift is always exciting. But gift baskets are always a little more exciting than any other gift. If you’ve ever received a gift basket, you know that despite being beautifully crafted and arranged, they still hold a little bit of mystery to them. Are you receiving something delicious? Or is it something luxurious? What kind of unique items are inside? These are all thoughts that people have when they’re given such a unique gift. So, opening a gift basket and discovering its contents is always a fun and exciting experience for the recipient.

The variety!

Gift baskets are completely customizable! Even if they’re a hard person to buy for, a gift basket is sure to make a unique impression. You can include all kinds of goodies in your gift basket. With contents being anything ranging from edible options like cookies to non-edible options like bubble bath to satisfy the preferences of the newlyweds! 

 

Support local.

Whether you’re building one on your own or purchasing one from a basket-builder, gift baskets are a great option if you want to make a sustainable purchase that supports local businesses in your community. You can create a basket with contents from numerous local sellers, or support your own local basket business by purchasing one from them! As an extra time-saving bonus, most local basket makers will even deliver your basket, too!

 

Whether you're low on money, ideas, or time, or just want to do something extra special and unique for the just-married couple, a gift basket is sure to make a great gift, and become a go-to for any and all future gift-giving occasions!

When it comes to Valentine’s gifts – some partners go big (like massively big), while some choose to go small, and on the other end of the spectrum, some don’t go at all. If you’re in favour of gifts to give to your significant other or someone special, it can sometimes be a  huge challenge to come up with a gift that is unique after just exhausting all of your amazing gift ideas for that special someone back in December.

Here are some tips and samples of what to write in your Greeting cards.

When writing a message in a greeting card, we may know exactly the feelings we want to convey, but coming up with the right words is not always so easy.

Gift Boxes Can Help You Social Distance and Still Celebrate!

Just like with any business, the gifting industry sees highs and lows from time to time. 
After years of remaining static, however, the Gifting Business is once again seeing a boom! 
This has come about during the COVID-19 pandemic as an unexpected outcome.
We understand why! 
People are avoiding personal contact, but that doesn’t mean they don’t want to stay connected or give thanks to others.
This is why gift baskets have become a favourite way to show appreciation.

 

How To Keep Your Distance But Show That Love is Near

For celebratory events in particular, sending gourmet gift boxes has become a new way of entertaining and giving a surprise whether at home or online. 
For example, babies are still being born but they may not be allowed to have many visitors; sending a baby gift basket along with eatables and spa items for parents, or maybe a toy for a sibling is a great way to reach out and congratulate new parents. 
Weddings are still happening but may not be able to have the same sort of celebration with all the guests the new couple wants; sending a personal Congratulations gift to the newlyweds will let them know just how much you wish you could have been there to celebrate with them, and to keep the celebration going in a small and intimate way. 
Sending care packages to loved ones who may have trouble accessing them themselves has also become more frequent during months of quarantine. 

 

How Social Distanced Corporate Thank You Gifts Go A Long Way

It’s not just gifts for personal relationships and loved ones, either. 
Many have chosen to send appreciation packages to those working the front lines in their communities. Additionally, companies and employers are sending concern and care packages to their employees across Canada who have been forced to stay home, as a way to keep the team spirit alive. 
Now might be a great time to go through your contacts and customer list to approach people and see if you can be of service to them, or if you can reach out with a show of appreciation and gratitude. You don’t have to wait until major holidays like Christmas, but can do it at any time!

We send you good wishes and hope you are staying safe and keeping well out there.
