Pippa Middleton's Gift Registry?

The fairy tale wedding of Pippa Middleton and James Matthews appeared picture perfect in the photos that upstaged the Preakness among other things this past weekend.  She looked ravishing and I am sincerely hoping that she'll influence brides to be for years to come in making a "traditional" wedding all the rage once again.  She looked astonishing in her bespoke Giles Deacon gown. 


What would you buy this young couple for a wedding gift?  Is Pippa as traditional as she appears to be? For the couple who probably "has everything" what in the world would you bring to the wedding?  Here are some of my picks.  I believe she's a traditional bride who likely selected china, silver, linens, and household items that will fit in nicely with her lovely home in London.

This Alpaca Throw would fit in nicely nestled around her animals while lounging on a couch.



I don't think anyone minds getting a piece of Herend.  A bunny is always a good choice because who doesn't love rabbits?
Is Pippa into Chinoiserie?  Even if she's not, who would not love a piece of this hand-painted glassware?


For those photos of that lovely dress, she could certainly use one of these.


I would love to receive this.  James looks like a Bourbon and Water kind of guy.


You can never go wrong with crystal and I love the crystal bowls that I received as wedding presents years ago, the kind of thing you'd never buy for yourself but you love using.



This English Staghorn Flatware makes a fabulous gift.

This picnic basket for two is a great gift for a young couple (and I have this in mind for someone).


And then there's china.  I wonder what patterns she would have picked out?  I have no idea but here are a few that I am loving.....and you can never have too much china, that's for sure!





Happy Tuesday!
