Gift Ideas for Newlyweds

If someone special in your life is getting married, then it is important to get the newlyweds the perfect gift to commemorate the start of their new life together. The first step to choosing the best present that both the bride and groom can enjoy is to check the registry made available to all wedding guests before the big day. The registry is a wishlist of items, hand-selected by the couple, where guests can easily choose gifts within their price range and order directly. By purchasing a gift from the registry, it will give you peace of mind that your present is something they want.

However, if there isn’t a registry, or you’re gifting something after the wedding date, then here are some ideas that are perfect for all newlyweds.

Jewelry

There are a lot of significant events surrounding the day of a wedding. The couple is expected to have a bridal shower, bachelorette and bachelor party, and rehearsal dinner before the special day. The perfect way to celebrate their union in love is by gifting them shiny accessories that they can show off together to their friends and family at every party.

A classic timepiece, for example, is a perfect gift for the groom and his best man. Shop for certified luxury watches from a range of the best watchmakers in the business like Rolex, Patex Philippe, Cartier, and more. Browse a wide selection of the Rolex watch brands such as the bestselling Rolex Datejust in silver, gold, white gold, or rose gold. Your watch will also come with a warranty, guaranteed to stay in excellent condition for up to two years after purchase. And for the bride, gift her the perfect pair of earrings, bracelet, or necklace that will compliment any outfit she wears as the center of attention.

Home Goods

Another great gift idea is home decor for the couple’s new shared living space. Right after the honeymoon, newlyweds return, eager to decorate their home with things they can share. Surprise the new couple by getting their engagement photos framed to dot their house with reminders of their love story. You can also celebrate the housewarming by gifting them things which they can use to entertain guests as a couple in their new home, like a silver serving tray or set of small dishes. A beautiful designer lamp, throw blanket, or piece of artwork can also be a useful addition to their new home. Try finding items that match both the bride and groom’s unique sense of style and taste.

Something Personalized

Buying the newlyweds something customized, is a great way to add a personal touch to your gift. Try a thank-you note box they can use after the wedding day to send to their guests. Try replicating a similar style as the wedding invitations along with the couple’s names printed on each one. Gift the couple a bottle of champagne along with engraved champagne flutes they can use to entertain guests and host parties.

A small wine collection personalized with the couple’s favorite types of wines can also be a great gift. If the couple isn’t using a wedding planner, the wedding planning process can be stressful, and the best gift you can give is that of your time to help the couple navigate all the details. Get a copy of the wedding planning checklist, and offer to take something off their plate by contributing to one of the to-dos on the list. Whether it’s finding a band or a caterer, they’ll be more than happy to accept help from friends and family.
