Share
As the weather starts warming up and your calendar starts filling with backyard BBQs, birthday parties, and long weekend celebrations, trying to figure out the perfect host or hostess gift can feel a bit overwhelming. But no need to stress, we’ve put together a list of simple, thoughtful gift ideas that are easy to grab and sure to impress.
1. A Bottle of Sparkling Wine
We love Schramsberg Sparkling Wine and this is often our grab and go item for the host/hostess. It’s festive, refreshing, and perfect for any type of summer celebration.
Tip: Bring it chilled and ready to drink!
2. Red Wine and a Gourmet Chocolate Bar
Pair a bottle of Trefethen Cabernet with a K+M Chocolate Bar for a gift that feels indulgent and elevated.
Tip: Put both into a festive wine or cellophane bag with a bright bow. We’ve got everything you need at the store and will even wrap it for you!
3. Cutting Board Paired with Charcuterie Items
Create a delicious spread with salami, cheese wedge, Rustic Bakery crackers, and a chocolate bar, all beautifully arranged on a cutting board. Giving a gift that the host/hostess can enjoy over and over again is sure to impress and adds a thoughtful touch.
Tip: Give us a call and we’ll have one ready for you to grab on your way to the party!
4. A Beautifully Packaged Candle
A candle is always a crowd-pleaser, especially when it smells amazing and is packaged beautifully. It’s a small luxury your host is sure to love and enjoy.
5. Wine Tumblers and a Bottle of White Wine
Wine tumblers are a fun and great gift for any summer gathering. They are functional and the perfect bring-along item for any event, plus they keep your wine cool during the warmer months.
Tip: Add a chilled bottle of white wine to elevate the gift! We love Frank Family Chardonnay.
6. Kid-Friendly Treat Bag
If little ones are on the guest list, bring along a fun surprise just for them! A bag of popcorn, a bottle of sparkling cider, and some gummy bears make for a sweet and thoughtful gesture.
Tip: Package everything in a cute gift bag or small basket, the kids will be thrilled and their parents will thank you!
Whether you’re heading to a casual family BBQ or a more elegant kid free dinner party, all these gifts are easy to pull together and full of thoughtful touches. Need help putting something together? Give us a call or swing by the store, we are happy to help you put together the perfect gift!
