Every year, I surprise my STP brides and grooms with a Christmas present. In the past they have received gifts like blankets to cuddle up in, cookbooks to create delicious meals together, and monogram coffee mugs complete with my favorite hot cocoa. This year, I let my couples guide me in creating something that would fit their lifestyle. I have every couple fill out a “Getting to Know You” Survey and under the “What do you like to do as a couple?” question, the first answer usually is travel. They know I absolutely adore traveling and I’m thrilled that they love exploring too!

To celebrate their adventurous spirit, I created the perfect little travel-inspired gift box for each couple. I mailed out and delivered over 30 of these sweet little boxes and I’m thrilled they brought my couples so much joy!

My favorite piece in the box was the book “The Bucket List: 1000 Adventures Big & Small.” It’s full of beautiful images and descriptions of different places to explore. Now they can find any adventure that’s perfect for them!

They also received an adorable little Carry On Cocktail Kit (drink choices included Old Fashioned, Gin and Tonic, Bloody Mary, Moscow Mule, and The Champagne Cocktail.) With each cocktail kit was an adorable engraved luggage tag that said either “Ditch the Map, “Enjoy the Journey,” or “Embrace the Detours.”

To complete this gift, each couple received a custom-made Christmas card!

While my 2017 couples received these presents, my favorite vendor friends were gifted champagne and wine. The perfect treat to ring in the new year. I cannot wait to start planning the gifts for my 2018 couples!
