For everyone in this world, a wedding is a major affair. You see, people marry, each with their own set of rituals and traditions. To begin with, the world is fascinating. There are different people, cultures, and perspectives on life. Yet, they give marriage the designation of being legally together.
Marriage, of course, is about the tie between two families as well as, the bond between two different cultures and lifestyles. Both the bride and groom will be starting a new life after the marriage. It’s a memory they’ll never forget, and we make it even more memorable by giving them gifts/blessings.
These gifts, of course, should be meaningful and useful. If you are in looking for what you should give at a wedding, then, here are a few wedding gift ideas that I think are cool to give in.
Flowers and Sweets

Having something sweet during ceremonies like marriage is normal. I prefer to give sweets to people even when they are sad or happy. So, a bouquet and packs of chocolates seem the perfect gift to me. You feel good when you give something sweet to others. Their happy face of them makes your day.
And, a wedding is such an occasion where we prefer to eat something sweet. Thus, you can gift them sweets and flowers. If you are looking for suggestions like which flower should you give then, orchids and Daniella are some of the best options. The orchid symbolizes love, beauty, refinement, many children, thoughtfulness, and mature charm. Kind of a perfect blessing for a wedding.

Customized toys today are well-made and look so cute. If you could manage to replicate the couple on toys, then it would be just the best gift ever given at a wedding. You can simply commission to make cute couples of rubber, wood, or clay nearby studio. If not, you could try giving a felted toy, a couple, if possible. But, when you plan to give such toys, prepare a bouquet too.
Gift Vouchers

Another thing that you could give to the married couple is gift hampers or vouchers. You could simply book a trip for them. Or, you could book a table at a good restaurant for lunch or dinner. You could give them some shopping vouchers. All these gift hampers are unexpected but optimistic surprises.
However, you must mention what you are giving to them while handing it to them. And, if possible, make the dates of vouchers flexible, so that they can use them whenever they want to. You could give these vouchers to the couple before or after their marriage. It’s all upon you.
Home Decor

Home decor could be another option for you to give at the wedding. You do not need to bring them to the wedding venue though if they are something huge in size like a couch or other furniture items. You can give these kinds of gifts after the marriage ceremony like two or three days later.
Moreover, if you are planning to gift, gifts like plants, pets, or something customized, just send them to the couples’ homes as aforementioned gifts. Otherwise, you can hand over the gifts like customized photo frames, personalized cups, moonlight lamps, statues, or paintings at the wedding.
A keepsake box

Well, this gift suits the female more. Keepsake box, I prefer giving a wooden keepsake box at the wedding. It can be used for storing jewelry, or photographs (wedding photographs or some old ones). And, it looks so attractive that it could also be used as decoration in the room.
Kitchen Appliances

We sometimes consider presenting kitchen appliances as wedding gifts. Not sure, if they use it or not. Yet, we believe they will utilize them at some point and gift them some kitchen appliances too. If you are considering presenting kitchen appliances, you should consider giving them some of the most recent models.
However, if you have a group of friends going to the same wedding, you may buy something expensive and exclusive kitchen appliance to give as a gift from your group. Well, it might be a group of colleagues, siblings, close friends, or just friends.
Cash

Cash would most likely be the most practical gift to give at a wedding. Nowadays, most of us would rather donate cash than think about and bring gifts. It is handier, and the pair can use them for what they want. It is not necessary to bring gifts to the wedding until and unless you feel like you should give one. So, if you feel like giving things is better, then you can choose one from the mentioned gifts. Or else, money would work though.
