Hi Wedding girl, I’m looking for a gift list where I can have a normal list with all the usual gifts but I also want an option where our guests can donate to a charity, is this possible or will we need two separate gift lists?
Tara – Brighton

Hi Tara, I think letting your guests donate to a charity is lovely but of course you wouldn’t mind the wide screen TV if one of your guests insisted! Well John Lewis gift list service now let you have both! When brides and grooms to-be compile their wedding list at John Lewis they can ask guests to donate to a CAF Charity Account. CAF is a registered charity so it claims back the Gift Aid from gifts given by UK taxpayers boosting donations to the couples’ account. The money is then distributed by the couple to any charities of their choice.
