The world has become a much smaller place thanks to fast and easy travel options. You can be in another country within an hour or two and back home before dinner. For those who have to say goodbye to their friends and loved ones for extended periods of time, welcome home gifts and celebrations are just what they need to celebrate a much-anticipated homecoming.

Pop the cork on that bubbly

When your friend or loved one comes home after several months or years away, it is always reason to celebrate. Champagne or sparkling wine are perfect for this occasion so get ready to pop that cork! Champagne hampers and sparkling wine gifts come in all shapes and sizes. You can choose a luxurious bottle in a fine case or a larger hamper that includes various delicious treats. It all comes down to the recipient’s preferences and your budget of course.

Pamper gifts

Spending a long time away from home can be exhausting. Not to mention the trip back home. When they arrive, the only thing they might want and need is a break from it all. Pamper hampers are excellent welcome home gifts because they allow the recipient to treat themselves to a soothing bath or invigorating shower. The products included in these gifts are designed to make the recipient feel great and this is exactly what you want to do too.

A taste of home

Being away from home means that you miss out on all of your favourite delicious treats. Welcome your loved one home with a box or basket full of the flavours of home. Our sense of smell is the most powerful of all. It can trigger memories from years ago. Similarly, various flavours also trigger memories and, when you treat their taste buds to the taste of home, it will make their arrival that much sweeter.

Finally, don’t forget to make a big deal out of it. That’s right! Hang balloons, raise a banner and get everyone together for a memorable welcome home party! Getting everyone in one place will make it that much more overwhelming.
