Attending a wedding and have no clue what to gift the couple-to-be? Sick and tired of the same old home decor and home appliances? Oh please not another oven toaster, vacuum cleaner or blender. Though money would be highly appreciated, it would appear very impersonal.
Gifting something to the wedding couple is a part of the ceremonious tradition. Your gift will symbolize your good wishes for the newly weds. It will represent your prayers for their happy married life.
Your first thought while buying a wedding gift is its durability. You would obviously want to buy something that would last them a long time. But certainly, you would want something that reflects your personality with a tinge of individuality. The couple will always remember your gift only if it is unique in its own way. This implies that your gift must make a very lasting impression of you on the couple.
Listed below are a couple of wedding gift suggestions that are bound to make you unforgettable to the newly wed couple.
Jewelry
Jewelry is a very safe and unique wedding gift that the bride will definitely appreciate. Everyone knows that women have always loved jewelry and obviously the bride would be overjoyed to see you gift her jewelry. She is bound to be surprised and fascinated on opening your gift. Choose something that is simple and elegant like a hairpin, pendant, necklace, bracelet, a brooch pin, earrings or chains. If you have enough funds and the bride is a close relative like your sister or best friend, you could gift her diamonds. How about including a pretty jewelry box together with the gift?
Bags
Once again, the bride is sure to love it. After jewelry, bags and shoes are bound to delight women. You could gift her an elegant and expensive hand bag or evening bag. If you are looking for something smaller, go for a clutch bag. You may also drop a basic make up kit into it.
Gifts for the groom
Can't forget about the groom, can we? They say it's easier to buy a gift for a man, and maybe it is true. Some appropriate gifts include ties and tiepins, wrist and pocket watches, cufflinks in gold, silver or with diamond studs. Formals shirts and suits also make very good wedding gifts. If you know the groom's favorite hobby, you could give him a related gift. If he is into music, you could give him drums or a guitar, or if he is more of a sportsperson, you could give him a basketball, a baseball or golf clubs.
Naughty items
There are some naughty gifts that you find in novelty shops like naughty hats, caps, t-shirts, underwear and wedding night kits that most couples love. But, make sure you know they groom and bride well before gifting something of that sort. Such naughty items may seem offensive and impolite to some people.
Artwork
Sculptures and paintings are ideal wedding gifts. It is also very practical because it will be useful in beautifying their new house. Just make sure you know what the couple's taste and art preference is like so that they put your gift to good use, otherwise it will just gather dust in the attic or garage.
Personalized items
You could gift the newly weds some personal item like a pillow, a pillow case, photo album, photo frame or wedding plates. There are plenty of companies that provide such personalized services so you need not worry about having a hard time searching.
