Visit gift ideas
A good visit gift is a box of chocolate or sweets for the coffee table or a vase of flowers for the majlis, and for an engagement visit, flowers with chocolate or a large vase for the bride's family. You can send it ahead so it reaches the house before you do. Not sure of their taste? Let them choose from 2 to 8 gifts within one budget and set the time that suits them in Riyadh and Jeddah.
A home visit gift for family and friends
Nobody here visits a family empty-handed, and the easiest gift is a box of chocolate or an assortment of baklava and petit fours opened with the coffee and dates. Choose the size by how many will be sitting, and a large box covers the whole majlis. See chocolate and sweets.
A vase of flowers for the majlis
A vase arrives arranged with its water and goes straight into the majlis, and it stays for days after you leave as a reminder of your visit. Calm colours suit any majlis and any decor. See flower vases.
A family visit gift for the grandparents' house
The Friday visit to the grandparents or the family house brings everyone together, and a cake cut with the coffee is enough for all and pleases the children first. Order it in the morning or the day before, and the host sets the slot from the link. See cakes, or flowers and chocolate for a gift that brings looks and taste together.
An engagement visit gift for the bride's family
The engagement visit is the first time you enter the bride's family home, and the gift goes to her mother and the household rather than to the bride alone. Flowers with chocolate in a neat arrangement or a large vase in soft colours such as white and baby pink suits it. See flowers and chocolate for congratulations and congratulations baskets, and for the bride herself engagement gift ideas.
Visiting a new home, a new mother or a patient
When the visit has an occasion the gift follows it, and for a new home a large vase for the entrance works, with more in new home gift ideas. For a visit after a birth see new baby gift ideas, and if you are the husband a gift for your wife after birth. For a patient see get well gift ideas.
Before you send
- Not sure of the household's taste? Line up a few gifts on one budget and they keep the one they like without seeing any price.
- To have it arrive before you, order the day before the visit, and the host sets from the link a slot when they are home.
- Write your name and your family's name on the card so they know who it is from if it arrives first.
- Match the size to the gathering. A short visit needs a medium box, and a big family visit calls for a larger box or a cake.
