It would be terribly unfair of you to come to the beautiful island of Bermuda and not bring something uniquely Bermudian for someone special back home. So many one-of-a-kind gifts are available, and the following vendors can steer you in the right direction.

So you have spent all this time shopping for the dress, rings, shoes etc. Choosing the fragrance you will wear on your BIG day is an important accessory, which will need to be chosen with style and careful attention.

The point is you owe your bridesmaids and your groomsmen. They are your friends, brothers, sisters, and siblings-in-law, and you couldn’t have done this whole wedding thing without them. You can thank your attendants with a golf outing, a day at the spa, or with classes at a local yoga studio. Or, if you want to go the more tangible route, give them gifts they can use again and for years to come. Bermuda has plenty to offer in this department!

Gifts and Jewelry are at the cornerstone of the wedding industry. As if the gift of love is not enough, we as guests give gifts to the couple getting married, or as the marrying couple, give gifts to the attendants who have stood by us as we took our vows or to one another as a token in memory of the wedding day. But despite this time honored tradition, the recession has caused many gift givers to become more prudent about giving.

Every woman can remember the first wedding she attended as a guest during her childhood. Filled with excitement and awe, I remember seeing the beautiful bride and the flowers that she carried, as she seemed to float up the cathedral aisle past me in the wooden pew.

Gifts and jewelry – they are central ceremonial pieces for the wedding participant or guest. Whether it is a groom looking for a small token of remembrance for their groomsmen, a mother and father of the bride giving a gift that their daughter will remember fondly for her lifetime, or simply the guest of the wedding, appreciative for the invitation to come and celebrate the couple’s special day, bearing gifts and good wishes.
