In search of the perfect wedding gift for a special someone in your life? While you can settle for candles and chocolates, it’s likely the bride and groom will get a lot of these types of gifts. By opting for something a little more creative, you can ensure that your gift will be appreciated. Below are just 7 wedding gift ideas worth considering.
Sparkling wine and personalized glasses
Encourage the bride and groom to continue celebrating their marriage after the wedding day by buying them a bottle of bubbly. Better still, go one step further by buying some personalized flute glasses to go with it. These could be printed or engraved with the couple’s names and the date of their wedding. Such a gift could serve as a reminder of the special day for years to come.
Personalized mugs
‘Mr’ and ‘Mrs’ mugs are a popular gift for newlywed couples. Another option could be to look into personalized mugs that contain the wedding date and the name of the bride and groom. Whenever they have their morning cup of tea or coffee, they can be reminded of the wedding day (there’s also no excuse to forget the anniversary date!)
Matching couples’ pajamas
Matching pajamas for couples make a cute wedding gift. These could contain text on them such as ‘bride’ and ‘groom’ or ‘Mr’ and ‘Mrs’. You could even look into personalized options. They’re the perfect gift for wearing while lounging around on a lazy day.
Matching couples’ cushions
Help the bride and groom settle comfortably into married life by buying some matching couples’ cushions. These could similarly contain ‘Mr’ and ‘Mrs’ on them and could be used to signify each other’s spot on the couch. Matching couples pillows could be another similar option.
Spa hamper
A spa hamper could be a great gift for helping the bride and groom unwind after the stress and excitement of the wedding. This could contain all kinds of relaxing gifts such as bath bombs, soaps, scented candles, and wine. You could buy a basket and make your own hamper or you could look for companies online that sell pre-packed hampers.
Couples’ ring holder
Make sure that the couple never loses their rings by buying them a ring holder to place their wedding rings in at night. This could be a small ornate box with ‘Mr’ and ‘Mrs’ printed on it. You could even look into personalized ring holder boxes with the wedding date on.
Couples’ experience voucher
Soon after the wedding, many couples experience the post-wedding blues. This is particularly the case if there was no honeymoon scheduled. By buying an experience voucher, you could give the couple something to look forward to. This could be something relaxing such as a wine tasting event, a meal at a restaurant or a spa break. Alternatively, it could be something active like a salsa dancing class, a cooking class or a supercar experience. You can cater it to the couple’s interest. Such a gift can be expensive, so it’s probably better aimed at couples containing close friends or relatives.
