If you are looking for a romantic wedding gift for the bride and groom nothing could be better than either of these attractive, well designed picnic baskets designed for the bride and groom to take on a 'date' after they get married. The items can be purchased at http://www.cooking-entertaining-gifts.com/. The top basket is meant for a special wine and cheese picnic so it comes complete with 2 handblown wine glasses (8 oz.), 1 nickel-plated bottle stopper with real cork, 1 stainless steel waiter-style corkscrew, 1 hardwood cutting board (6 x 6"), 1 stainless steel cheese knife with wooden handle, and 2 napkins.
The 2nd basket called the Piccadilly Picnic Basket is reminiscent of simpler times, when picnics were grand affairs and life was slower so you had the time to enjoy them to the fullest. This red and white plaid willow basket measures 16" long and has a picnic service for two. Included are 2 plates (melamine, 8", white), 2 wine glasses, 2 sets of cutlery, and 1 waiter-style corkscrew. It features a matching roll-up flatware pouch.
Both of these baskets offer the bride and groom a chance to slow down and take the time to enjoy each other.
Picnicworld has lots of great baskets too! Some similar in color to the top one.
ReplyDeletePetra is right about Picnicworld, nice selection! These are good too though!
ReplyDeleteLuv the green basket at the top, interesting shape.
ReplyDeleteDitto w/CYang, the green one rules!
ReplyDeleteLove baskets for wedding or shower gifts depending on how elablorate they are, but I like to make them myself for friends.
ReplyDeletemy sister got four picnic baskets for her shower! be sure to check a registry before you pick one up! no one needs four.
ReplyDeleteI wish I had a bigger one, mine is a set for two, which is romantic, but not as practical as a larger set. I guess I'd better get them for friends so mine works for my fiance and I and they all have their own!
ReplyDeleteCareful buying these, they are either a real hit or a major miss, all depends on the bride and groom.
ReplyDeleteThere are lots of other places that sell these too, PicnicWorld etc.
ReplyDeleteluv romantic picnics for two!

ReplyDeleteI like the ones that are like knapsacks better, they're easier to take if you're going somewhere you have to hike in.
ReplyDeleteI love baskets that have a wine cooler in them as well, love cold drinks w/picnics in the summertime.
ReplyDeleteJust be sure and check and see if they already have some! I have three!!!
ReplyDeleteLike both, but the green is more unusual, and I'm known for preferring the unusual!
ReplyDeleteNice baskets! Good idea for a gift!
ReplyDeleteThese are pretty but a backpack is more practical depending on what you are carrying and where you're picnicing.
ReplyDeleteLove picnics! And these baskets are so nice! I found some more good ones along the ads on the side.
