Wedding gift ideas

I always find it very difficult to think of presents to buy the newlyweds that are both useful and beautiful (I went very wrong with a dustbin once!). So I have done some research and came up with a selection of ideas that bride and groom will fall in love with.

1. Dinnerware set - it is a must-have on any newlyweds list. Urbane and eclectic, this Villeroy & Boch collection is ultra-modern, with groovy yet elegant lines. Prices start from £11.95 at John Lewis.

2. Cutlery - it might seem an obvious choice, but this minimalist cutlery designed by Arne Jacobsen for Georg Jensen (originally designed for the SAS Royal Hotel in Copenhagen) is the ultimate wedding gift.

£169 at georgjensenstore.co.uk.

4. Silver cake stand - this stylish silver heart shaped, two-tired cake stand will be perfect for a fun tea party. Get it for £69.95 at Cocoa Bean.

5. Set of three Heart Trugs - this handy set of stylish chickenwire trugs with heart shape rims and tall rounded handles baskets will have endless uses in newlyweds home. £17 at Dibor.

6. Set of ''Grand Office'' cheese knives - this stylish and professional stainless steel kitchen utensils with beautiful detailing are the ultimate wedding gift. £33.50 at Lavender & Sage.
