Buying A Unique Wedding Gift
By Samuel Murray
Your best friend’s wedding is coming up and you have
to buy a gift. You don’st really want to get them a blender
or a vacuum cleaner or a set of dishes. You could just give
them money, but that seems so impersonal, albeit useful. What
do you do to find a truly unique wedding gift that will stand
out from the throngs of average and mundane gifts that seem
to populate weddings? A wedding gift should be something that
is useful to the new couple as well as thoughtful. The first
step to buying any wedding gift should be to check the store
where the couple is registered, if they are at all. This will
tell you what has already been purchased and what they still
need. To be truly unique, however, your gift will be something
that no one else will even consider getting them. Food processors
and sets of towels are out of the question. Your unique wedding
gift will be something astounding, amazing, and thoughtful.
But what will it be? Here are some things that are perfectly
appropriate as wedding gifts but are not often given. Any of
them will be sure to speak to the couple and say that you cared
enough to give something very different.
Artwork
A very unique wedding gift, artwork is something for the couple’ss
new home together but can also be very personal. This is an
option that should be seriously considered before being purchased,
because art is very subjective. Something that you love could
be something they hate. This is also the type of gift that
you need to be prepared to spend some money on. An oil painting
from the local gallery blowout for ten bucks is not going to
cut it. Artwork as a wedding gift should be an artist’ss
original and that will cost a few hundred dollars at the very
least. If the couple has a favorite classical artist, however,
a lower cost option could be a framed print of one of that
artist’ss works.
Gift Certificates
A gift certificate can be a very thoughtful and unique wedding
gift, as long as what the certificate is for is something thoughtful
and unique. You don’st want a simple department store
gift certificate here. Find a gift that can be something tailored
to suit the personalities of the couple. Are they the active,
outdoors type? Try a gift certificate good for a camping trip
in a national park. Maybe they are extreme sports freaks? If
so a gift certificate for skydiving lessons or parasailing
may be the perfect thing.
These are just a couple of examples of the special and unique
wedding gifts you can come up with if you just put your mind
to it. With a little bit of creativity and thoughtfulness,
you can give a wedding gift that will stand out from all the
others and put all the blender buyers and gravy boat givers
to shame.
