The Go-to Guide for Wedding Gift Ideas – From Bridesmaids Gifts to Vendor Gifts

Celebrating Our Feature in The Heart of NC Weddings’ Gift Guide

We recently had the wonderful opportunity to meet Jenna Parks of The Heart of NC Weddings during her visit to New Bern as she prepared for a photoshoot promoting our charming town as a top wedding destination. From the moment we connected, we were thrilled by Jenna’s passion for showcasing the best of North Carolina weddings and the incredible network of wedding and event planning partners she works with. Just days later, we were honored to discover that Small Batch Gallery + Goods was featured in her thoughtful wedding gift guide blog post—and we couldn’t be more excited to be included among so many fantastic ideas!

Jenna’s blog beautifully captures the spirit of Southern hospitality and the meaningful tradition of gift giving in weddings. From welcome bags filled with local treats for out-of-town guests to luxurious self-care gifts for bridesmaids, her insights provide practical and heartfelt inspiration for couples planning their big day. We love how she emphasizes thoughtful touches that express gratitude—not only for family and wedding parties but also for the vendors who help bring the celebration to life.

If you’re looking for creative and personal wedding gift ideas, The Heart of NC Weddings blog is a fantastic resource. We’re especially proud to be mentioned as a go-to source for adding that special local flair to welcome bags and gifts. Thank you, Jenna, for including us in your post—we look forward to many more collaborations and helping couples celebrate unforgettable weddings here in New Bern and beyond!
