Special Ideas for the Bride and Groom

Sure, it’s nice to pick from the registry, but sometimes it’s more fun to choose your own gift! If you have friends or family that are getting ready to tie the knot, here are some creative and different unique gifts to select from. These gifts will be special (and perhaps unforgettable) to the happy couple!

A Fire Extinguisher

Price: Low

This is probably the only gift that you hope they never use! But, hey, it’s something all households need. And, if they ever reach get in a situation where they do put it to good use, they will be very grateful for your thoughtfulness. This would be perfect combined with another gift, perhaps something small off their registry like dish towels. You can purchase a fire extinguisher at stores such as Target. If you look online, you can buy them for as low as $13 or as high as $30. This will be a “hot” gift!

Christmas Decoration Box / Basket

Price: Medium to High

If the couple is getting married in November/December, or even if they’re not, an assortment of Christmas supplies would be a fantastic gift. Just buy a nice storage container or basket, and fill it up with necessary Christmas decorations – perhaps a personalized ornament (you can order one online at Ornament Shop or Russell Rhodes.) Some other ideas might be tinsel, lights, figurines, a Christmas music CD and more. This is definitely not a common gift, but is something they will use every year.

A Personalized Cake Topper

Price: Very High

If you know that the couple still needs a cake topper, while not get them a customized one that is a replica of the special couple? If you look on the Thumb Print Kids, Clay Figurines or Right Brain Creations web-site , you will learn that you can order tiny figurines that look just like the bride and groom. This is a gift they can display long after the wedding cake is gone. It is definitely a one-of-a-kind present!

Tree

Price: High to Very High

Is the couple moving to a new home that needs some landscaping help? Then a tree would be an outstanding and unique gift. You could just a get a gift certificate to a nursery, or just show up at the shower with the little tree! (It’s probably not best to bring it to the wedding reception!) Be sure to get one that will thrive in the area. It is something that will last a long time, and is a very thoughtful gift.

Personalized Plate or Platter

Price: Medium

Want to give them a creative dish to use when they entertain house guests, or something that will give their kitchen a personalized touch? How about a customized plate or platter? Most cities and large towns now offer a paint-your-own pottery studio where you can decorate a gift for them. To find one, search at this site. (Not all studios are listed, though, if you can’t find one, google your cities name and “pottery studio.”) Not creative or artistic? Don’t fret, you can purchase one that’s personalized for you online right here and here.

Massage Gift Certificate

Price: High

Okay, this is just for the bride, but hey, a lot of gifts (like kitchen supplies, unless the groom is a cook) are only just for the bride. She will enjoy getting pampered and feel more relaxed for her wedding day. Ask around for a reputable massage therapist, or check online at this site. A massage is a very thoughtful gift.
