Choose a fancy new set of copper or brightly colored cookware. If it feels like youâd like to have the same set for your own kitchen, then you know that it will also be a perfect wedding gift.
Designer Soft Furnishings.
Itâs highly likely that the newlyweds have already furnished their home. To complement it, try soft furnishings or woolen items. These can range from cushions and beddings to pillows and duvets. They are all well-made and are guaranteed to last a lifetime.
Nice Luggage.
Chic and sturdy luggage is perfect for a couple who loves to travel and is about to embark on their honeymoon. Itâs practical, timeless, and can even last a lifetime. Now, some suitcase comes with USB ports which make them more than just a carrying case for your clothes. The price is not a bad one either. To spice it up further, you can add personalized luggage tags and passport holders bearing their new initials as a couple.
Elegant Picture Frames.
Youâll never go wrong when you give the newlyweds a way to display the beautiful photos from their wedding. Besides, they must have tons of these photos and may need to organize them in the most creative way possible. To add a personal touch, have their wedding date or anything that is significantly engraved in the frame.
Crisp and Cool Linens.
Nothing can compare to the cool and luxurious feeling of slipping in between soft and silky sheets. For a newlywed couple, itâs a gift that theyâd surely feel excited to try for the first time especially when they now have a wedding bed to share.
Handy Appliances.
Although appliances may not be a sexy gift, you would be surprised how most couples would appreciate a high-tech vacuum, a modern blender, or any latest model of the appliance when theyâre still trying to settle their bill for the wedding. Generally, cooking appliances are still considered as the most popular wedding gifts for newlyweds.
Beautiful China.
Thereâs no doubt that superb-looking china is one classic gift and something that will make the newlyweds smile with glee. It can be a simple tea set or an elegant dinnerware collection. Find a way to discover the coupleâs taste in chinaware by taking a quick and sneaky peek in their kitchen cupboard on one of your visits. You want to know what to choose from a huge selection of chinaware available in the market.
Wine and Liquor Accessories.
Wine and liquor accessories can be a brilliant gift idea. There are a plethora of items you can invest in, ranging from the traditional bottle stoppers and corkscrews to customized decanter sets. Try to go shopping in antique shops where the most classic items are a delightful find. A nice bottle of wine is also worth an effort and a smart alternative, especially if itâs the type that you have shared with the couple in the past.
Classic Furniture.
For a couple whoâs just starting out in their new home, a piece of furniture for placing all those dishes, china, and wine glasses can be very essential. A china cabinet or a dining room set may be great but may need some caution before you give them away as a wedding gift, particularly if youâre not super close to the couple or you have no idea what their dining room looks like. The solution? Give them a gift card to a furniture shop that specializes in that type of storage.
