You did an absolutely beautiful job! Really great tips I never thought of, like covering the filler with cloth, or even thinking about colors! That is smart with the food bag, I can't tell you how many people leave their wedding and never even have taken a bite of anything other than the cake. That is so thoughtful of you. Your daughter-in-law is very lucky to have a thoughtful mother in law (and your sons lucky too) like you looking out for them!
+Candace Brady (Conversations With Candi) Hubby and I only had a fork full of the wild grain rice and nothing else but the cake like you mentioned lol. That night we said, wonder how the food turned out. So I agree, what a great idea with the food bag . . . .
I like to give baskets as gifts. I loved yours! You gave me good ideas. Maybe a small scissor would have been useful for them together with the lighter? To open the cheeses, etc.
Love the idea of packing up wedding food for the bride & groom. I wasn't able to have dinner at our wedding & ended up with a headache since all I had was that bite of wedding cake. What a beautiful idea!
That looks so beautiful for my brother-in-law and my new sister-in-law they recently got married but not a full wedding that they would love the time in basket at this time of day because we have the Coronavirus that is going around in this will be the greatest gift in their house and thank you
Beautiful! I once made my sister a 'basket' of home cleaning products when she moved into her first apartment...except I used a mop bucket instead of a basket.
Have seen some good basket ideas but this is soo beautiful and elegant. Such a thoughtful idea making sure they eat and to give some pieces to keep as memories in their home. Will keep this in mind for my very close friends weddings. Great tips! 😄
Nikki, u have knocked it out of the park w/ the insulated bag with reception goodies. WOW!!!! Eggcellent idea, thought I wud throw in a lil Easter lingo😀
What a great idea! You did such a good job on this gift basket, much better than any I've seen in stores. Congratulations and blessings to the bride and groom. What a joy!
Beautiful gift basket! What a great idea to get some of the wedding meal packed for the bride and groom - many of my friends told me that they never ate at their reception, and were hungry later!
I'm a believer that the beauty is in the detail and my goodness not only was the finished basket amazing but the sentiment, love and care behind the basket was beautiful too. xx
I love that idea I'm going to do that too for my brother-in-law he's getting married to so that is a great idea a honeymoon basket I love that idea and had a great Easter
What a blessing to see such a beautiful sistah, with such beautiful God given talent. We need more women like you in our communities to teach the younger and older unlearned women, about how to care for family and the home. Elegance is always in style. Class is something that is never outdated. Being warm and welcoming is something that a lot of women have not been taught to do. Thank God for TH-cam in this aspect. Please continue to educate us all, on how to be good keepers of the home. Blessings to all of God's children.
Absolutely in awe right now!! I am saving this for my friends future nuptials and especially the caterers tip for food. Perfect!! Congratulations to your son and future daughter, I wish them so much happiness.
always wondered how to achieve this beautiful bow. so thank you very much! this is an amazing gift! I'm sure, your son and daughter in law loved it!!! xo
Hi Nikki, this is absolutely beautiful and very thoughtful. I am in love with the cheeseboard and the the napkin rings. The insulated bag with the food from the caterers is an excellent idea and so you for paying attention to every detail and caring so much. Hope you enjoy your son's wedding to the fullest. God Bless. Hugs Alli
I've been doing baskets for years but have never tried the shrink wrap. It looks so easy. I will certainly be giving it a try the next time. Thank you so much for sharing.
What a fabulous idea for the couple!! I am helping my little brother with his wedding in a month and I am going to make sure he has a beautiful basket for their honeymoon! And what a thoughtful thing to do, planning on saving food for them! Thank you so much for sharing how you make life beautiful and thoughtful. I have so enjoyed your thoughts and ideas. You have inspired me!!!
You are so thoughtful! I love your videos. You don't forget a single detail. Once I think the video is almost over you pop up with another thing. That insulated tote was such a clever idea! And you even had the dishes to go with it. Congratulations to your son!
Wow! Nikki this is just a beautiful informative video. My life is better because you are in it! Love your videos you are simply a creative, lifestyle genius and I adore you!
Well done Nikki😊. I just love your style but more than that, the love you poured into this gift is so heartwarming. I would have loved to receive something like this on my wedding day and I'm sure your son and daughter in law will be so blessed by your thoughtful care of them. This is what family should do for one another and it's an art that has been forgotten about... Being generous with love, especially when there is a wedding or baby shower or life events that should be celebrated has become somewhat of a forgotten thing. You inspire me to do this type of giving with my own family and friends and thank you for showing us how to do that. Some things we just don't learn or know about unless we have a mentor😊 who will show us. Thank you for showing us the good stuff that matters (and I don't mean the material things, but rather the love you share). Happy life to your son and daughter in law... May they be blessed in their new life together💗💗💞
Absolutely Beautiful , Nikki! You really debunked the magic of putting together a basket like this! I never thought it could look this good to DIY! Wow ! Thank you so much! You have a true giving spirit!
Girl, you never cease to amaze me! You are so talented in many, many ways! I thoroughly enjoy your channel, and thank you for sharing your life with us!!
Just gorgeous!! How exciting for them and you!! Thank you for sharing and helping everyone live a better and prettier life!! P.S. That rug is beautiful too and it looks very cozy 😊
Nikki i can listen to you all day.i think you are a wonderful classy woman,you think about everything,I love the basket.You have given me alot of great ideas.You will be a wonderful,mother -in-law,you are so thoughtful,you are a rare woman
Hi Nikki, this is one the most useful tutorials I have ever seen on TH-cam! Baskets are very fun and thoughtful gifts, and I love them too. However, just watching you put this together and sharing ideas that I had never thought of made me so excited for the next time I do a basket. Thank you for another inspirational video. Congratulations to your son!
Congratulations on getting a new daughter! I know they will feel so blessed to have such a thoughtful and meaningful gift for their honeymoon. I'm sure your new daughter is going to LOVE being a part of your family and always feeling so special... especially due to all the lovely gestures you make and thoughtful details you include for all of your loved ones. (I'm still trying to figure out a way to become part of your family!!!) Wonderful video and beautiful gift basket!! Oh, and the reception-to-go-bag is genius! Well done, Nikki!
I think getting the honeymoon suite at a nearby hotel, spa or the site of the reception is a great idea. Often travelling to an exotic location is just exhausting on top of an already stressful event. Save the big trip for the 1st anniversary! That bag for food is a great idea. Between being so busy and not wanting to get anything dirty before pictures most of us end up buy the most expensive meal we never eat! I got my pen today and it is beautiful!!!! I think I will get one for my niece who is graduating from Villanova!!
You're the best mother in law every girl would love to have! xoxo!
Congrats! I must say that she is getting a great mother-in-law!

+Lindsay Ashton A great tip I will be using at my son's wedding next year.
You're a genius!! It's time for me to do a Nikki video marathon!!
My my, this was beyond thoughtful! 😍🤗
I love the lunch bag idea. After my wedding, I was so hungry. I didn't realize that I had ate so little until we were in the hotel room.
Lucky son and daughter in law must say!!!
You are a wonderful mommy.... reflects in each details.
That looks so beautiful for my brother-in-law and my new sister-in-law they recently got married but not a full wedding that they would love the time in basket at this time of day because we have the Coronavirus that is going around in this will be the greatest gift in their house and thank you
I'm getting married in May and would love a basket like this! I might even make one for myself and my husband!
I was thinking the same thing in regard to making one for ourselves. Not getting married but just to have a special weekend.
Omg, I would've never thought of that...a sample menu! You are so thoughtful. I know this video is older, but the info is PRICELESS!!!
first word that comes to mind - Beautiful.
What a gorgeous basket Nikki! Congratulations to your son & his wife!

Nikki you are such a thoughtful person , what a blessing you are to your family x
What a great idea! It's the 1st time I see such a thing. Really great!
Lovely! Congrats to your son & dtr-in-law!
I have seen dozens and this is the number 1 best gift basket and best video!
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!! Thanks so much Nikki!!
such a great idea! I have never thought about doing the filler in the bottom with silk on top..Genius!! :) Thanks for sharing you talented woman you!
I think getting the honeymoon suite at a nearby hotel, spa or the site of the reception is a great idea. Often travelling to an exotic location is just exhausting on top of an already stressful event. Save the big trip for the 1st anniversary!
That bag for food is a great idea. Between being so busy and not wanting to get anything dirty before pictures most of us end up buy the most expensive meal we never eat!
I got my pen today and it is beautiful!!!! I think I will get one for my niece who is graduating from Villanova!!
Nikki the basket is absolutely gorgeous.
all I can say is "Absolutely Gorgeous "......love,love,love it!!
Yes, you are amazing and thoughtful. Wonderful ideas!!!!

Where were you when we got married? That is absolutely elegant and professional looking! You keep raising the bar. Great job!!!
Mrs. Nikki, You are the best. I learn so much from you. You are such a blessing! Thanks for sharing!
The cooler idea was genius!
Your family is so lucky to have you 💕
