Some Tips About Wedding Gift

With the advent of the wedding season, we inevitably have to attend some of our friends' wedding. Then, in order to express our wishes for the newlyweds, a meaningful wedding gift becomes necessary. Let's talk about some things about choosing a wedding present.

1.How much should I spend on the ideal wedding gift?

The old guideline used to be that you should at least cover the approximate cost of the bridal dinner but these days things are more flexible and it’s a matter of personal taste and budget. It also depends on how close you are to the couple.

2.Do I have to choose from the wedding registry?

If you’re not keen on choosing from the wedding registry, I’d suggest having a look at it anyway to get an idea of their personal taste. Ask their family or close friends for pointers, to ensure that you choose thoughtful wedding gifts that both of the couples like. The new trend for asking for cash instead of presents makes some guests feel awkward, so don't feel like you have to go along with it. Instead, consider giving them a personalized item like a needlepoint embroidery of their wedding invitation card or a personalized Jeroboam of champagne, and pairing it with a small item from the gift registry, such as napkin rings.

3.How can I contribute to a more expensive gift on the list?

Consider clubbing together with other friends or family to contribute to luxury wedding gifts such as a tableware set. Alternatively, you can just buy part of the item such as cups and saucers rather than the whole set.

4.What if the couples have requested no gifts?

They might appreciate a charity donation on their behalf or you offering your time to help them prepare the wedding. An alternative would be an album filled with photos and mementos of the wedding, or arrange a picnic for them and drink to their good health!

5.When should I send the gift?

It’s usual to give the gift beforehand or on the day. If you’re bringing your gift to the ceremony, do check whether there will be a secure place to leave it – I know of one occasion where cash donations were stolen! If sending the gift after the wedding, try to do so immediately afterward.

Maybe these tips will help you pick the right wedding gift. Of course, the most important thing is the wedding itself. With the most sincere wishes and carefully prepared gifts to witness the happiest moment of friends! Finally, if you need wholesale Gifts& Crafts, you can look at our website.
