A wedding is an important and solemn event that symbolizes the long-awaited, legal union, the emergence of a new family. And a young family, just starting a life together and a common life, needs, as you know, a lot.
Gifts for home
The simplest and most correct decision in favor of what exactly to give the newlyweds for the wedding will be made if you can ask them themselves. However, most couples in such cases pragmatically and predictably respond that they need money now. But as experience shows, donated for a wedding, the money most often goes to pay off debts that a young family got into, organizing their solemn event and holiday. But close friends and relatives want something to be remembered and useful in the household.
There are a lot of options for useful gifts. For example, you can give young people a certificate for a certain amount from a hardware store, in which they can pick up what they need and is more important. Choosing a gift on your own in such cases is dangerous, since you can give what the couple already have if they lived together before the wedding, or you can fit into a series of relatives with similar gifts.
Despite the prevalence of presentations, pillows and bedding are always relevant gifts. These seemingly simple little things are always lacking when guests arrive or a big wash is started.
In addition, they wear out quickly, so the newlyweds will not lie on the shelves for a long time.
If you know for sure which of the guests will give certain gifts, you can choose something that none of the relatives bought. This applies to household appliances such as a multicooker, microwave oven, pressure cooker, juicer, food processor, coffee maker, steamer, coffee grinder, etc. But such things can be given only if you know for sure that the newlyweds do not yet have this or that device.
Of course, in case of a match, they will be able to transfer it to someone else, but you probably would like the gift to become a memory.
Gifts for the soul
As a rule, after the wedding, young people plunge headlong into the arrangement of their life and forget about the simple and so necessary romance that they had during the period of meetings and dates. As a caring guest, you can prepare a romantic gift for a young couple. For example, a photo book with photographs collected during their acquaintance before the wedding - from joint parties, birthdays, etc. If you get some more memorable and expensive things from the bride and groom (notes, letters, movie tickets), you can paste them into your photo album as well. They will review such a thing with pleasure and nostalgia for long evenings.
You can also give a couple tickets for a concert (touring groups schedule their schedule several months in advance, so tickets can be purchased in advance), a certificate for cosmetic services (for example, massage) for two, or an invitation to a horse ride. The young couple will definitely thank you for such original gifts and their fun weekend and bright emotions.
