Gin brand makes lovely gesture to those who have postponed their wedding due to coronavirus outbreak
This story is part of our Good News series – bringing you positive headlines every day to spread positivity during difficult times.
Bloom Gin has made a lovely gesture towards anyone who has had to postpone their wedding due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The London dry gin brand announced that they would be offering free miniature bottles of their popular gin for brides and grooms to give away as wedding favours to all of their guests when they are finally able to have their big day.
Anybody who was supposed to have their wedding day from 16th March (just over two weeks ago) but has had to cancel or postpone because of the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic can claim the lovely gesture via the brand’s website.
Broadcasting the sweet move on their Instagram page in order to get the move to as many affected couples as possible, the brand wrote, ‘We know that lots of you have had to postpone your big day due to COVID-19.
‘And while it's no consolation for all the hard work, planning and saving that's gone into arranging your dream wedding, we're offering FREE 5cl BLOOM Gin miniatures as wedding favours for those who have had to move weddings due to take place from 16th March.
‘You might notice that our website states from 30th April,’ they went on to clarify, ‘but we've taken on board the feedback from disappointed brides due to marry earlier than 30th April and our website will be updated to reflect this today’.

The company added that, naturally, only those over the age of 18 can apply and that amazingly they are holding the generous offer all the way until 30th November this year.
We think these gorgeous mint green miniatures would look amazing in any wedding setting - so it's a great deal to claim!
