A monthly date box hamper for couples

At the centre of the hamper is the 12 Monthly Dates Box: twelve sealed date ideas in a personalised box, to open one each month or whenever you have time. Around it you add the treats, chosen by you.

What’s in the date box

  • 12 sealed date ideas, each in a colourful envelope
  • 2 blank cards with envelopes, for date ideas of your own
  • A black box personalised in white with a name or short message, surrounded with hearts in shades of red

Building the hamper

Open each section above the Add to basket button to see what is available: chocolates and biscuits, candles, spa at home, hot drinks and little somethings. Each item is priced individually, so add as much or as little as you like. The running total updates as you go, and everything is packed together in one box sized to fit what you choose.

How the dates work

Each card holds one date idea, written to be interpreted to suit your lifestyle, your budget and the time you have. Some are an evening, some are a whole day together. Many can be done at home, which is where a hot chocolate or a candle from the hamper comes in.

The two blank cards are for the dates only the two of you know about. Write one each, seal it, and mix it in with the rest so it turns up as a surprise.

A Christmas present that lasts the year

The treats are for Christmas. The dates will last all year, and help create memories to last a lifetime. Buy it for your other half, as a present for the two of you, or for another couple.

12 dates or 52?

If the two of you would like more date ideas, the Date Box Hamper is built the same way around A Year of Dates, with 52 sealed date ideas.

Personalising the box

The box is always black, with your text printed in white and surrounded with hearts in shades of red. Add a name, or a short message such as the couple’s names, a date or an in-joke. We print exactly what you type and there is no proof, so check the spelling before you order. Personalised boxes are made to order and cannot be returned for a change of mind.

Sending it as a Christmas gift

To send the hamper straight to the recipient, add their address in the shipping details at checkout. Add a gift note and we will print it and include it with the order. Every order ships in plain packaging, so nothing on the outside gives away what is inside. Hampers are sent to UK addresses only.

    *Personalised boxes are made to order, so please check the spelling and any dates before you order. We print exactly what you type.

Choose items from as many categories as you want and we will package them in a gift box to make a present that keeps the recipient smiling all year. Hampers can be sent anywhere in the UK.

We will do our best to package this carefully so it arrives looking perfect, but please be aware the contents can move in transit.

Because the hampers contain food, they cannot be sent internationally.

Environment

We aim to produce gifts that are 100% recyclable, and we encourage all those enjoying opening envelopes to recycle them after they’ve completed their activities.

Our boxes are 100% recyclable, and are constructed from ‘greyboard’ which is made from a mix of recycled and waste paper. The outer wrap paper is also recyclable.

Where possible, the paper we use for our card and envelopes is sourced from FSC-certified suppliers.

Shipping Information

We wish we could hand deliver every order placed with us. Unfortunately, this isn’t possible – so we have to rely on the postman.

Most items ship for free in the UK. Where free delivery applies, it is clearly shown in the product information, so you will know before you order.

Free UK delivery is sent via Royal Mail Tracked 48 to mainland UK addresses. These are usually delivered within 2-3 working days, but this is not guaranteed.

We offer an upgrade to Tracked 24 (next working day) or express, which is sent via Royal Mail Special Delivery.

You can choose to have your order delivered to your own address, sent directly to the recipient, or delivered to a Royal Mail parcel locker or collection point convenient for you. Please note the lockers will hold the order for 3 days, and returned orders will be subject to an additional charge to resend.

We also offer free international shipping on orders over £60 to most countries. Our international orders are sent via Royal Mail International, and tracked depending on the destination.

Tracking is provided on all orders once dispatched and will be shown in your dispatch email.

We aim to send your order within 1 working day of receiving your payment. Orders received before 12pm UK time will be shipped the same day (excluding weekends and bank holidays).

*Shipping will be calculated at checkout, and any delivery costs required will be added at this point.

Contact us as soon as you spot it. If your order has not yet been printed, we will correct the details before it is made.
