For many couples, the idea of creating a wedding gift list probably feels a bit awkward... like you're expecting your guests to buy you something. Believe me, I know the feeling.

Not that that's really a problem mind, it smells freaking amazing.Read more...

When my sister got engaged, and she and her now-husband started considering gift lists, I immediately told her to check out Prezola. Like many soon-to-be-married couples, they not only already lived together and so had many of the traditional wedding gifts already covered, but because they wanted flexibility with what they could add to their registry. Today I sat down with Rachel to talk to her about how she found the wedding planning and Prezola experience.Read more...

My husband and I like to play the 'what if' game on a regular basis. What if money was no object, where would we like to go on holiday/ where would we like to live/ what would be our biggest dream?
