A WORLD OF SURPRISE
www.bellerbyandco.com
A well-travelled couple can be tricky
to shop for – so why not just give
them the world?
Bellerby Globemakers
, established
in 2008, use both traditional and
modern techniques and materials
to produce hand-made, hand-
painted globes with precisely
designed maps and elegant stands.
The most recent addition to their
range, the Desk Globe (pictured), is
a special edition which is limited to
250 globes only. Packaged in its
own flight case and sitting on a
hardwood base, the globe would
not only make a memorable
souvenir of the wedding day, but
would also be a stylish addition to
the decor of any room.
THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX

Founded by Giselle Hulme 24 years
ago,
The Empty Box Company
offer
a unique gift idea for storing all
those cherished wedding
memories. From boxes to store
precious wedding outfits and
accessories, to ones that can be
taken along abroad on honeymoon,
they have your storage needs
covered. The boxes are made from a
special pH neutral board to protect
the contents from dust, light and
fabric discolouration, and are
finished in the design of your
choice using lace, ribbon and acid
free tissue. Their largest box, The
Hollywood Extreme (pictured), is
even big enough to fit a willing
bride or groom, should you want to
present yourself as a gift to your
future intended!
THE HEART OF ART

For the cultured couple who already
have everything, the
Zimmer
Stewart Gallery
offers a gift registry
with a difference. Run by James
Stewart and John Zimmer, who
married in 2007, the gallery gives
couples the opportunity to build up
an art fund through donations from
friends and family, fromwhich they
can then select their favourite piece
from one of the gallery’s artists,
commission a new piece, or request
something which the gallery will
then source for the couple.
Damn This Place
..., a series by
Richard Denne, would be the
perfect gift for the newlyweds who
love the country theme. ‘I always
wanted to be a cowboy’ says the
artist, whose brightly coloured
work is based in mixed media,
digital images and screen print.
PROTECT EACH OTHER
www.eandl.co.uk
The best gift you can give your
other half is, of course, peace of
mind – it might not be at the top of
your to-do list, but insurance is just
as important as your venue or
catering.
E&L Civil Partnership
Insurance
will provide protection for
things like illness of an immediate
member of the party, a double-
booked or damaged venue, ruined
wedding outfits, supplier failure,
lost deposits paid due to financial
failure, or if you or your partner are
made redundant. Hopefully your
wedding day will be a fairytale –
but it’s always best to be prepared.
