It’s officially December, brides! The season of Christmas gift guides, sequin jumpsuits and fancy tree-adorning is finally upon us! And, to go with it, we’ve pulled together a Team Hen gift guide that’ll knock your cosy slipper booties off in a second! 

It’s that time of year again (the month where we spend copies amounts of time scrolling for the perfect gift, hours untangling the Christmas tree lights (every single year) and days panicking over the pickier people on the gift list. Luckily for you, if its your last Christmas as a miss or you’re a stressed fiancé struggling to find the ideal gift, our carefully curated Christmas gift guide is not only tailored to the bride-to-be, but bursting with fabulously festive and stylish items that’ll gain the gift giver (even if it is you to...well, you bride - no judgement here) some serious brownie points come the 25th December!
