Even residents of one of the most expensive countries in the world believe that the best gift is attention and care. But what if you want to manifest it in a material form?
If earlier the newlyweds gave mostly sweets and photos, today they approach the choice of gifts with great creativity. But the main rule remains the same – it should be a symbolic welcome thing of small size and not pretentious and expensive stuff that will make guests blush.
- Something edible
The most popular option is a sweet present that guests can eat right during the holiday. These can be bonbonnieres, fortune cookies, or cupcakes. If the wedding is taking place in the summer, complement the gift with a beautifully decorated soft drink.
Also from sweets, multi-colored marshmallows, macaroons with the initials of the newlyweds, Kinders, sweet figurines depicting guests, chocolate champagne bottles, truffles are awesome options.
- Personalized gifts
Finding individual gifts for all guests is not an easy task. Especially if there are a lot of them. Therefore, it’s better to abandon this idea so as not to offend the rest of the guests. It is better to collect the same gifts. For example, boxes of SOS cure (mineral water, snacks, and face mask) for everyone to freshen the nip after the party.
- Something as a keepsake
Any souvenirs that will remind guests of the wedding can become a gift. For example, a polaroid framed photo, mugs, caps, cute interior pillows, reusable engraved wine corks, and more.
- Seasonal
Think about the time of year. There are many options for original gifts in any season. In winter, all guests will be happy to receive Christmas decorations, candles with your photo, or cool socks in the colors of the wedding.
At an autumn wedding, a plant, a beautiful jar with homemade jam, and mulled wine in a decorated bottle will be a pleasant surprise. And in summer it can be a small basket with fruits and berries.
- For fun
If the budget allows you to go to the expense and you want to present something quite unusual, hand over lottery tickets or gift certificates to each guest.
Here are some more unusual souvenirs that your guests will definitely appreciate:
- Painting
- LEGO set with figures of the bride and groom
- Fragrant sachet
- Pocket board game
- Useful gifts
The best gift for guests at a wedding from the newlyweds is the one that will then be used at any time of the year. Make a wedding-style piggy bank, give a small jar of honey or luxury tea, shopping bags, or handmade soap.
Final words
The most important thing when choosing a gift is not how much money you spent, but whether you put your heart into it. Your attention is the most important thing for wedding guests. And souvenirs are another reason to say “thank you” to your loved ones for sharing this day with you. Therefore, approach the choice of gifts with care, and then no one will remain indifferent.
