Love Christmas Shopping at Gretna Green

Five reasons to shop at Gretna Green this Christmas 

What better place to begin your Christmas prep, than the Home of Romance itself? At Gretna Green, we pride ourselves on bringing people together, and what better time to do so than Christmas? Here are five reasons you should shop with us this Christmas -

1. We make gifting and Christmas easy; to achieve this, we have worked hard behind the scenes to pull together categories for each gifting section. Whether you’re looking for niche Scottish gifting or big brands, from our Gretna Green range to big brands such as Barbour and Joules, we have you covered. Personalise your order with your delivery note, or order one of our bespoke hampers, which are ready to go. If you are hosting this year, look no further than our stunning homeware range, from Christmas decorations to new bedding for that guest room… we have you Christmas-ready. 

2. Bespoke hampers are ideal for that person who has everything. With our range of cashmere, and alcohol, our Christmas hampers also make hosting a little bit easier; shop our range of food and drink hampers to start your festivity prep. We have also made the process of thanking your colleagues or customer easy with our carefully selected corporate hamper range. 

3. We are a proud family business. You are supporting a fifth-generation family business when you shop at Gretna Green. With this, our profits go towards supporting and building the Gretna Green community, and in return, we can gift you bespoke, handpicked gifting sent with love. 

4. Bringing you sustainable gifting, we want to bring the best quality gifting to you this Christmas; however, we also want to give back some love to the planet. To do so, we have opted for paper bubble wrap when we can, and we also recycle all unwanted boxes from our suppliers, using them as paper shreds for your parcel. Shopping with us is a sustainable option as we try to use as many local and sustainable brands as possible. This Christmas, we are proud to announce various sustainable brands perfect for gifting, including Scottish Fine Soaps, another family-owned business that takes pride in its sustainable gifting products. 

5. Bringing people together since 1754, when you shop at Gretna Green, you know you are buying from a historic, romantic location. Therefore, with every gift we give, we add a touch of love and romance. Our range of Gretna Green own brand products makes for the most special gift for a loved one. From our candles and defusers, perfect for those winter nights, our new glassware, perfect for hosting the festivities, to our stunning range of Gretna Green jewellery, ideal for those Christmas party nights or gifting options.  We want to bring everyone together this year, and make Christmas as easy as possible.

Love Gifts For Her at Gretna Green

Buying for that special woman in your life, whether your mum, sister, girlfriend or wife, can be difficult! Especially if that person already has everything. However, we have come up with unique categorising to make the shopping experience for gifting the women in your life, easy. 

Jewellery

Dazzle her with some of our stunning jewellery. Gift ‘her’ with our newly designed Gretna Green jewellery, brownie points straight from the Home of Romance itself! We have a gorgeous range of earrings and necklaces.  Our gorgeous range of Joma jewellery makes for the perfect gifting opportunities. With all-new Christmas styles and our traditional options, you will surely find the perfect bracelet or necklace. With gifting options available for mum, grandmother and sister, Joma is the perfect personal touch to add to your gifting. Maybe your loved one prefers gold over silver, then look no further than our stunning Tutti and Co range. Make it a set by gifting a bracelet, necklace and rings. If you’re looking to add a little Scottish touch, then our gorgeous range of Heathergems makes for a unique and personal gift handmade in Scotland. 

Fashion

One of the easiest ways to have a more sustainable Christmas is to invest in your presents, and you cannot go wrong with a good quality handbag. Our new stunning Radley range, with matching bags and purses, makes the gifting process easy, all available from Gretna Green. Or treat your loved one to one of our new range of Barbour jackets, perfect for those winter strolls. With a variety of colours, including a stunning burnt-out orange, she is sure to love. Barbour has you covered from big to small. If you are opting for a more ‘stocking filler gift’, our Barbour range includes hats, scarves and additional pieces such as our travel cups - ideal for those on-the-go coffee drinkers! 

Drink

This year we love all things local and supporting communities close to us. Our alcohol range is no exception to this. Inspired by the beautiful surroundings of Gretna Green and distilled in the Scottish Borders, our Gretna Green gin is the perfect gift for gin lovers. However… a study carried out in 2020 found that there had been a 15% increase in female whisky drinkers! Women now account for around 35% of whisky drinkers (Master of Malt). Worry not; we were also excited to release our new Gretna Green Blended Scotch Whisky this year! Blended in our local Annandale Distillery, this Single Malt is the ideal gift for those new to whisky or those who are looking to try something new. 

 

Sustainability at Gretna Green

How we put the Green, in Gretna Green

As well as producing the best customer experience, for our brides and shoppers, we at Gretna Green care passionately for our planet. We have therefore taken small, but important steps in ensuring we are doing everything we can to be a sustainable brand. After all, how can we be the Home of Romance without giving a little love back to our planet? 

Paper Bubble Wrap

To ensure your product is safely packaged but also environmentally friendly we have opted for paper bubble wrap when we can, meaning that our bubble wrap can be recycled and or composted. Plastic bubble wrap takes up huge amounts of space in landfills, and can take hundreds of years to disintegrate! So we try to limit this wherever we can. This is especially important to us over the Christmas period when we see a massive increase in gifting products.

Recycling From our Suppliers

Using paper bubble wrap is not the only step we take to ensure we are delivering parcels in the most environmentally friendly way. We also shred all unwanted boxes from our suppliers and shred all cardboard in our own warehouse to fill our parcels. This way we can reuse our own cardboard as well as take advantage of the additional boxes we get from our suppliers. This makes sure that your product is delivered in the best way possible as well as being kind to our planet. 

Local Suppliers

We take pride in our geography, and as a result, try to take advantage of our amazing local suppliers from both sides of the borders. Not only does this limit our carbon footprint but it also helps us support local communities around us. 

Our Green space

Here at Gretna Green, we are blessed to have a vast amount of fields surrounding our attractions. This means we have plenty of space for our wildlife to flourish and create our own little ecosystem supporting bees and pollination across Gretna Green village. This also means we have plenty of walks so our customers and colleagues can fill their lungs with fresh air. 

Biomass Boilers

Over at our Famous Blacksmith Shop, Smiths Hotel and Old Toll Bar cafe we also use biomass boilers. These are extremely beneficial in limiting our carbon footprint, as biomass is classed as carbon-neutral and is a 100% renewable energy source. We also use solar panelling at our Famous Blacksmith Shop, again decreasing our overall carbon footprint and doing our bit to provide sustainable, quality customer service.  

Biodegradable Confetti 

Of course, we cannot forget to make our weddings as eco-friendly as possible. That’s why we only sell and allow the use of biodegradable confetti in our wedding venues.

All New Gretna Green Products

We are excited to release our new range of Gretna Green gifts, homeware, food, drink, and jewellery. 

Fill your home with scents from the Home of Romance itself, with our new Gretna Green Candles. We have crafted three original scents, including, ‘The Unbreakable Bond’, ‘The Anvil’, and ‘Famous Blacksmith Shop’.
