It’s time to get creative with wedding gifts for your best friends who are about to tie the knot. Instead of being one of those boring people who bring kitchen appliances, make the newlyweds smile with any one of these creative wedding gift ideas. Let yourself be inspired by them to think outside the box and create your own. Here are 12 ideas that may strike a chord in you.
- Glassware
Nothing spells elegance and everlasting happiness than a set of personalized glassware with the newlyweds’ names on them. This includes sophisticated wine glasses, shot glasses, cooking ware such as plates and dishes, and anything that will have long-lasting sentimental value.
TIP: Consider a Wedding Keepsake Box to keep your prized possessions safe.
- Framed Art
A perfect wedding gift for everybody, having framed art with their vows printed on canvas is sure to please both the happy bride and groom. This idea is exciting, because both vows represent how they feel for each other, which will be on proud display for everyone especially if this luxurious piece of art is hung in the living room.
- Branded Robes
Robes make anybody feel like they’re living a luxurious lifestyle. They’re comfy, they’re cozy and they feel like you’re being hugged by pillows. So, obviously, giving the newlyweds robes with their names stitched into the back in silver or gold calligraphy is the way to go.
- Street Signs
Do you know where the bride and groom to be met for the first time? Perfect! There are plenty of places online (or at your home department store) that can help you. If you know the intersecting streets of where they met, you can buy both of them and attach them. This proves to be a long-lasting memory that will surely endear you to them.
- Engraved Box
Some couples like wearing their engagement rings. Others prefer keeping them in a safe box at home, so they don’t get lost. For the former, there’s nothing you can do about it. For the latter, however, you can give the happy couple a custom-made jewelry box engraved with their names on it.
- Engraved Jewelry
Engraved jewelry is almost as romantic and cherished as an engraved box to keep them in. Whether this includes rings, earrings, necklaces or the popular Shamballa bracelets, there is no reason not to go all out and splurge on the highest-quality jewelry you can afford. (As long as you have it engraved with names of the newlyweds.)
- Infused Bath Salt
Did you know you can DIY your own bath salt right at home? These are a personalized gift because you can infuse them with any selection of essential oils that you choose. You need Himalayan salt, Bokek Dead sea salt, glass jars, a funnel, wooden scoops, ribbon and beautiful labels (so that you can differentiate the emotion you are going for with each beach salt).
Here is what you need to do:
- Measure your salt by pouring it into the jar and fill it to the top
- Pour the salt out into a small mixing bowl
- Add one, two or any pleasing combination of essential oils to the small mixing bowl (with a spoon)
- Put the funnel in the jar and pour the infused salt back into the jar
- Add the label to the jar, and label it to your heart’s content
