It is not easy choosing the right wedding gifts for a couple given that they may have everything you consider giving them. However, some couples don’t mind, while others still preferred to be ‘wowed’. When you want to gift a new couple, bear in mind that the gift must be useful to them. It boils down to having a plan.
The following serves as a guide on how to pick the perfect gift for the couple. These include:
1. Work with a budget
The first step that should be taken when choosing a gift is having a budget. You do not want to set your budget too low or too high, and you do not want to be indebted in order to please the engaged couple. So develop a fair budget comfortable enough for you to buy a decent gift for the couple.
2. Personalise your gift
A good way to ‘wow’ the couple is to print their names or hashtags on the gift. This means the gift was specially made for them and would make you come off as thoughtful. It also shows that you cared enough to take the time to make the gift a memorable one. You can even opt for a more creative way to personalize their gift.
3. Kitchenwares
You can never go wrong with kitchen wares be it plates and cutlery. Try something new like non-stick pans and cookware, coffee makers, sandwich makers, water filters, kitchen napkins, wine, and knife racks. There are many other options in this category to give as gifts.
4. Cash
The couple would not turn their backs on cash. Every new couple needs extra cash after the wedding. However, most people do not give cash because they want to give a gift that will outlive cash when the money eventually finishes. When you give the couple cash, you may be helping them clear off their debts thereby registering your kind gesture in their hearts for a long time.
5. Combined gifts
How about partnering with others to purchase the couple one of their more expensive items? Ask around to see if any of the other guests would be interested in partnering to get the couple an expensive good-quality dinnerware set or any other worthy gift that would normally be too expensive for you.
