If your couple has a registry, you don’t have to wreck your brain too much. But if they decided to leave out this helpful gift-buying guide, don’t worry. Here are a few amazing wedding present ideas that every couple will love and cherish. Take a look.
Lux bedding
Bedding is not only crucial to comfort and look of any bedroom, but it’s also surprisingly expensive, so many couples choose to use their old set until it’s horribly worn out. A gift of new bedding can really be lifesaving! Choose something soft and durable, but stylish in design. If you don’t know their bedroom style and color scheme, something neutral is a safe choice.
Matching bathrobes
If they love to be pampered, your newlyweds will love a set of matching bathrobes, especially if you get them monogrammed. This way, they’ll match perfectly and be able to cozy up together every night. If you know they don’t use robes, you can do the same with towels or even pajamas. Everyone uses towels and pajamas, so you can’t go wrong with that.
Class coupons
If you know your couple prefers experiences over material things, why not surprise them with a nice class that will allow them to learn about anything in this world from real experts? Artistic couples will love a few pottery classes or writing lessons, while more practical people will enjoy a cooking class. Those who love to have fun will enjoy their dance lessons or couple’s massage classes. If you don’t know the couple very well, feel free to call their friends and family and ask around about their hobbies and passions.
Practical kitchenware
No matter if they just moved in together or if they’ve been sharing a home for some time now, your happy couple probably needs some new pots and pans. Make sure to choose something durable and high-quality like Scanpan cookware—any one of their products from sauté pans to steamers and casserole pots provide the user with superior heat distribution and easy cleaning. A few of their models in different sizes are all your newlyweds will need for easy breakfasts, light lunches, and hearty dinners.
Top-shelf drink
Everyone loves having a well-equipped home bar full that will allow you to mix cocktails for parties or relax with a glass of your fave liquor. Plus, the fact that you have a bar stocked with expensive alcohol means you’re very grownup and responsible—just how newlyweds love to feel. Pick a high-end beverage for their bar (whiskey and wine are always popular). If that’s not enough for you, throw in a set of monogrammed glasses with their initials or their family name and these will make every drink taste better.
Fancy luggage
Luggage is a splurge and not something many couples think about until they need to start packing for their honeymoon. So, if you assume your newlyweds will be facing a broken zipper or overstuffed suitcases, gift them with some chic and sturdy luggage pieces that will allow them to travel in style and comfort. And you’ll get extra points if you throw in some monogrammed luggage tags and passport guards in the mix!
Furniture pieces
If you and the couple are very close friends or family members, don’t hesitate to give them something really useful and valuable. Of course, you won’t be buying them their king-sized bed or big living room sofa, but something smaller like a dining room table or a statement chair might be a great gift idea. If you don’t know them that well but still want to go big with your present, a gift card to a nice furniture store will be a great idea.
Good old money
In this economy, no one is going to be mad at you if you give them some cold, hard cash. If you want to make this gift a little more thoughtful and interesting, turn to tradition. For instance, in Hebrew, multiplies of the number 18 are considered lucky, while Hindus and Buddhists prefer numbers ending in one. In Chinese culture, giving money as a wedding gift is very common, but make sure to choose a combination of numbers six and eight in a red envelope.
There’s no going wrong with these wedding presents. They are the perfect combination of something pretty, thoughtful and useful, so your newlyweds will love and cherish your gifts forever.
