EMPLOYEE WELLBEING: DWD GREAT OUTDOORS GIFT

A gift was required toΒ replace the shared experience of the annual walking and spa tripΒ the team would usually take. We sourced and supplied a premium gift hamper which included a range of items to encourage recipients to get outside and take some time for themselves with treats to enjoy once home.Β  The pieces where possible, were British sourced and made.

EVENT ENGAGEMENT: CHRISTMAS INCENTIVE TRIP TEASER CAMPAIGN

Crown BC tasked us with creating a premium ceramic Christmas bauble for Virgin Media Business’s incentive trip to Finland. With a tight two-week deadline, we designed a white bone china bauble featuring a hand-drawn reindeer, event branding on the reverse, and a 24ct gold top with red grosgrain ribbon. The baubles were wrapped in black tissue and placed in a natural kraft box to reflect the Nordic theme. The client and recipient feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with many praising the design and quality.

CLIENT APPRECIATION: WILLS & TRUST CHRISTMAS GIFT

Gilded Bee was asked to create personal yet professional Christmas gifts for Wills & Trusts' family clients. The gifts needed to embody the company’s family values without corporate branding.

We designed a bespoke baking set featuring a personalised recipe book with favourites from the Wills & Trusts team, complete with custom illustrations. The set included a bread bag and dough scraper, all elegantly wrapped in black and gold. Each gift was finished with a gold ribbon and a custom gift card.

MEET EMILY, FOUNDER OF GILDED BEE

β€œI started Gilded Bee because I believed gifting should be more meaningful.

Too often, corporate gifts are generic, forgettable and disconnected from the people receiving them.

Today, we help organisations create thoughtful gifting experiences that strengthen relationships, celebrate achievements and leave a lasting impression.

Every project is approached with creativity, care and a focus on delivering genuine value for both the sender and recipient.”
