8 wedding gifts to wow any bride and groom
Love is in the air and the wedding bells are ringing! Wedding season is here and its time to celebrate all of the brides and grooms that are getting ready to tie the knot this spring and summer. As the invitations roll in we not only have to plan what we will wear or where we will stay but we can’t forget about showering the newlyweds with thoughtful gifts.
A wedding gift is a wonderful opportunity to congratulate the newlywed couple as they begin their new life together. And while selecting an item off of their registry is always a nice gesture, it is often that the off-the-registry gifts are the ones that end up being the most thoughtful. We like to think of items that would be more personal to the bride and groom, rather than a generic toaster. We suggest showering the couple with gifts that they wouldn’t normally buy for themselves but that they would surely appreciate.
Here are a few thoughtful gift ideas that will wow any bride and groom as they start their lives together:
Glassware: Select a unique set of drinking glasses that compliments both the bride and the grooms taste. If they love drinking wine, find a set of gorgeous wine glasses that will look just as good in their new home as they will filled with vino.
Vases: Every bride loves receiving fresh flowers from her groom, so why not give the happy couple a beautiful vase to hold a floral arrangement? You can give a stand alone vase or a set of three small vases that hold a flower each.
Pitcher: Many people overlook giving pitchers as gifts but they are super useful when it comes to entertaining. You can make a batch of your favorite margaritas to serve or simply use it to fill your guests water glasses at your next dinner party. It is something that comes in handy in every household and is many times forgotten about.
Blankets: Cozy blankets are something that every couple needs and you can literally never have enough of them! These blankets are perfect for the warmer months and are so versatile that they will go with almost any decor.
Ice Buckets: If the newlywed couple loves entertaining, then make sure to give them something that they will be able to utilize during their next party. Well designed ice buckets make a wonderful gift that is both useful and gorgeous to look at.
Serving Trays and Servers: Every bride loves breakfast in bed, so why not give a tray that would be perfect for helping to indulge in a little morning of relaxation. They are also great for housing drinks and hors d’oeuvres for parties as well. Servers come in handy when serving up salads for dinner at home or when entertaining guests as well.
Decor & Lamps: You know the happy couple better than most, so pick out something that they will use everyday and remember you for. Find a unique lamp that will go with their current decor or find something that strikes a chord with them. They will appreciate it so much more if there is thought and meaning behind it.
Picture Frames: The bride and groom will need to frame their beloved wedding photos after the wedding, so why not select a few beautiful frames that will house some of their most cherished wedding moments. Choose frames that compliment their style and that you know will look good in their home.
