The Wedding Shop's Stylish Gift Edit

The Wedding Shop has been helping matrimony-bound couples with their wedding gift lists since 1990. From their showrooms in Chelsea, Selfridges and beyond to their elegant website, their team understand how to curate a selection of gifts that couples love and their guests will love to give.

We asked them for their edit of the top 10 most stylish gifts for 2018. As they say, "a wedding list is the perfect opportunity to update and upgrade your home essentials. So it’s time to retire the leaking kettle, swap out those Ikea plates you’ve had since university, and invest in quality items that were built to last."

Kahler Ceramic Pink Vase, £44.50
Kahler is a Danish brand with roots in traditional craftsmanship with modern design – and we are in love with their pastel pink vase. As baby pink is this season’s hottest colour, objects and vases are a fab way to update your home interior with the latest trend without investing big.

Fun, quirky, colourful cushions can transform a tired old sofa and give it a new lease of life. (Also much cheaper than buying a new sofa!) We are currently loving this Andrew Martin plume cushion because it's so versatile and works with so many different colourways.
