I think gift giving does happen, but some guests have notices saying they can't accept any (with reasons of travel usually given) x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She loved it. But like @Broo say it depends from guest to guest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 You can, chocolate is a good one as they can eat it at the event if they want, it's stuff that people give for them to take away that's the big issue as they often don't take most/any of it as they can't carry it.

R4wly97 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 @Broo @Chris1970 @Raylenth Ok thanks. I was just thinking if it’s considered weird I won’t do it but if people give gifts all the time then I will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris1970 Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 (edited) Well, think size too. Mine was like 5cm x 5cm so it was not big, she even remembered me giving it to her when I met her in November so it can make an impact.

I dunno if you know what they look like but if you are curious just have a look. They are hand painted not so far from me and I ordered one and added the Tyrell rose on it. More personal then was my idea. Horse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering bringing him a present from Italy too, like either a souvenir or some local food specialties which he might appreciate since he has Italian roots but it’d be really impractical to bring any foods on the plane while traveling with a carry-on bag only, and they might get spoiled if bought a few days in advance... So I don’t know what to do, it seemed a nice idea but I can’t just give him a bag of pasta 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
