GIFTS All for One 1629 views

Even if you've already set up home together, you'll need to give some thought to a gift list, whether you are thinking about asking guests to contribute to a charity, a honeymoon or your home.

If you can't decide where to place your gift list, one good solution is to register with a company that allows you to spread your list over a number of different places.

The Bottom Drawer was one of the first of its kind to set up an alternative gift list. Garden makeovers were just one of their original ideas: why not get guests contribute to having a new garden designed and created for you? Since then, The Bottom Drawer has added online and department stores, charitable contributions and even honeymoons. If you register with sister company, Top Drawer Holidays, you get to use Bottom Drawer for free at the same time as getting a full service travel agency offering 100% financial protection. Some of the more unusual gifts registered at Bottom Drawer recently include collecting for a horse box and one for a grand piano where the couple made each key a separate virtual gift. With such a wide ranging choice, there is something for everyone and this is the best kind of gift list to have.

As well as choosing the right gift list for your needs, you need to consider your guests too. There need to be a range of gifts to suit every budget - and also a choice that appeals to each and every guest. Guests generally want to give something that marks your marriage and that they will be remembered by. Some guests will want to give an individual present, such as a vase or a toaster, while others are happy contributing to your holiday of a lifetime or to a charity that you hold dear to your heart.
