The rituals associated with weddings are as old as the Pyramids, let's take a look at this life-giving gift that makes our world go around.
The middle ages are famous for the barganing of land, animals & metals in exchange for strategic marriages between kingdoms and clans, but did you know that these rituals go as far back as the Code of Hammurabi in 1780 B.C.E.?
The payment of a bride price or dowry remained strong in many cultures but by the late 1800's a new trend had emerged. It had become customary for gifts to be provided by guests who were deemed worthy of an invite to the auspicious celebration.
The tradition of the wedding registry (wedding list) originated in 1924 when the famed US Macy's department store introduced it as a savvy marketing strategy, one which was swiftly adopted worldwide.
Curated gift lists meant couples could receive gifts they actually desired or needed. This was particularly useful when couples had not previously lived together and were about to set up a home.
In modern times, despite the growing trend of gifting money, choosing the perfect wedding gift is an important consideration symbolising the special occasion of marriage.
Timeless and elegant wedding gifts are a token of respect to families and recognise the importance of the givers relations with the bride or groom.
With this in mind, I present my own Wedding List to help you choose the perfect timeless and elegant gift, one that will provide colour and inspiration throughout the lives of the happy couple and keep your relations with them in high esteem.

My work has been presented in New York as part of St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, has been displayed on county Post Office and has been show-cased on National TV. Read more about my art journey here.
