Shopping for a wedding gift isn’t always easy. While most couples have a wedding registry to help with gift picking, sometimes you want to branch outside the box—or most of the good stuff on the list is already taken. There’s also the issue of budget and finding the right line between giving too much and too little. But the right wedding gift doesn’t have to be extravagant. It just needs to be special, like customized Visa gift cards.
Sure, there are practical gifts such as a new vacuum or a serving platter. Home items are always a no-fail option, especially when you can personalize them with a monogram. But there’s also something to be said for more meaningful gifts that help the newlyweds create memories together, like a cookbook for at-home date nights or a journal with date ideas.
“Many couples already live together and have most everyday items, and traditional registries are now uncommon,” says Kristin Sullivan, master wedding director of The Bridal Retreat. She suggests gifting a unique experience for the couple, such as a picnic in the park or a day visit to local botanical gardens. Etiquette Design Company founder, Victoria Della Torre, recommends thinking about the couple’s habits and interests. She also loves to gift monogrammed items if the couple appreciates personalized touches in their home.
