Oh My Gift Ltd
2039 4th Ave W, Vancouver, BC V6J 1N3Oh My Gift in Kitsilano carries some of the most unique, beautiful and special gifts in the city. Designer and owner Lynne Jacobs hunts down one-of-a-kind pieces so that you don’t have to! With home decor items from Kate Spade, cozy blankets and throws from Avoca, adorable tea sets, and hand-picked bath and body sets, this shop is a great place to find something to suit the bride-to-be in your life.
Fine Finds Boutique
1014 Mainland St, Vancouver, BC V6B 2T4Located on Mainland Street in Yaletown, Fine Finds is a well-priced spot to pick up a new wardrobe – and a thoughtful gift for a trendsetting pal. To ensure every piece is extra special, the store only stocks a limited number of each item; so if you like something, you better snatch it up immediately! The focus is mainly on fashion, but you can also shop here for home decor accessories, lifestyle items and locally made cards to accompany your bridal shower gift. I suggest picking up a pair of honeymoon luggage tags and “Just Married” flip flops to give to the newlyweds.
