Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are soon to open their wedding gifts after the Royal Wedding.
The couple asked guests and well-wishers to simply make charitable donations with the money they would have spent on presents, according to a report by The Mirror. However, their closest friends and family received a short list of gifts that the newlyweds were interested in.

The newly minted Duke and Duchess of Sussex registered at the exclusive private members’s club Soho House. The list, obtained by The Sunday Times, had a charming mix of high-class luxuries and every day items for around the house.
First opened in 1995, the London Soho House caters specifically to affluent people like celebrities, socialites and royalty. It is an international chain consisting of stores, clubs, restaurants and even spas. Prince Harry and Markle are members, as are many of their closest friends.
The place holds a sentimental value for the newlyweds, who reportedly went there on their first date in July of 2016. Markle herself even worked as a brand ambassador for Soho House, and she spent plenty of time in their Toronto location. She spent much of last summer at Soho Farmhouse along with Millie Mackintosh and her friend Markus Anderson, who is the global membership director.
More recently, Markle and Prince Harry have been spotted eating at a location called Little House in Mayfair, one of Soho House’s smaller locations.
Now, the young couple is reportedly on the hunt for a second home in addition to their Nottingham Cottage on the grounds of Kensington Palace. The items on their gift list might be a glimpse into their furnishing taste, as well as the things they like to keep stocked around the house. It includes everything from small accessories to furniture, and everything in between.
Here’s a look at the happy couple’s gift list.
Cashmere Throw
