Present your gal pals with something they can cherish on W-day and beyond with Studio Lowen’s range of gifts, which are guaranteed to prompt a resounding ‘yes’. Handmade in Cornwall by Lisa Stewart, whether you want to treat your bridesmaids to the finishing touches of their ensemble or offer an engagement keepsake, you’ll find something spectacular to suit amongst the range. Blending function with Lisa’s signature aesthetic, each item is lovingly crafted to serve a decorative and practical purpose, from her recycled leather clutch purses and jewellery pouches to her collection of earrings and original printed cards. Go glam with a gold clutch, evoke the beauty of nature with a botanical design or opt for an on-trend palette of soft pink, champagne, neutral tones or sea blues for a coastal wedding. Throw in a pair of metallic drop, sunrise hoop, seapool or painted floral earrings for a fabulous final flourish.

Stackers
Combining brilliantly practical products with a soft palette of colours from pebble grey to blush pink, Stackers’ bridesmaid collection is bursting with ideas to present and pop the question with. Pick from jewellery boxes, champagne bottle bags, jewellery stands, washbags and the very handy cosmetic and jewellery bag (ideal for a pre-hen weekend gift!) – and add wedding day essentials such as earrings, lip gloss, bracelets and perfume for a personalised proposal gift. Hand-stamped monograms seal the deal.
Milly Maunder 
Devon jeweller Milly Maunder’s Bridesmaid Gift Box can be customised as you go and includes an item of jewellery, mini bouquet of dried flowers, duo of fudge and a plantable seeded illustrated card. From enamel disc pendants and pearl drop earrings to silver granulation hoops, gold plated cuffs and bubble studs, every item is lovingly handmade by Milly and her small team, using recycled materials whenever possible for timelessly stylish jewellery you’ll want to wear every day.
Trevethan Gin
Your bridesmaids-to-be will be thrilled to receive a bottle of gin, and Cornish craft distillery Trevethan’s range will pack the most delectable punch. Its original, multi-award-winning spirit tastes divine and promises to spoil the senses with its handcrafted family recipe that dates back to 1929. Combining citrus notes with a floral flavour and using botanicals from across the globe – including Cornwall – we especially love the silken oak and honey-infused gin with lifting notes of orange citrus softened with vanilla. The grapefruit and lychee gin is both sweet and zesty (and a taste sensation when served with tonic, fresh mint and a slice of grapefruit) – perfect for a summer’s engagement soirée. Add a miniature to a proposal box, send a full-sized bottle of their 1920s Classic Cornish Dry Gin with a handwritten note or toast your forthcoming nuptials with a cocktail party and pop the question as you sink a G&T with a memorable difference.
Wanderlust Life 
Devon-based Wanderlust Life is home to an assortment of jewellery to suit a variety of styles and budgets, which will be worn time and again. The signature Fine Cord Necklaces are made using the most loved semi-precious stones in a design to suit all. You might fall for the timeless beauty of the pearl necklace or something with a birthstone or symbolic meaning such as the rose quartz, rainbow moonstone, opal or sea glass chalcedony. What’s more, you can add extra personalisation with a made-to-order 14k gold fill, hand-stamped monogram tag. Alternatively – or as an addition to the necklace – the Engravable Insignia Disc Gold and Silk Bracelet is an eye-catching choice, with a disc that can be engraved with a motto, mini love note or symbol of your choosing. Order online or pay a visit to the Braunton shop and studio to peruse the trove of treasures. You might even take your girl tribe with you and pop the question by asking them to choose their favourite piece.
