Ideas For Wedding Presents

By Owen Jones


The occasion of a wedding is a very special day for everyone. Just being asked to one can bring about real exhilaration. It is always a pleasure to see someone walk down the aisle with the promise of true love and life long happiness. Picking out a wedding gift can be a lot of fun too. There are thousands of presents that you can purchase online or in retail stores.

Personalized gifts is a common fashion in weddings presents. Bespoke gifts bring out your originality because you can determine the style, design and message you want to be printed on them. Items range from photo frames, mugs and clocks, among many others.

When buying gifts, always keep in mind your resources but be certain to get the look you want on the goods you buy. Here are some gift ideas that would definitely be a hit:

Tapestry - It is lovely to remember the wedding day, but how best to do this? Personalize everyday belongings by printing the couple's picture on them. You can have it printed on pillows, blankets or bags.

Have them printed on a tapestry wall hanging and they can be kept as heirlooms. Different coloured cotton threads can make your pictures come to life just like the photo itself.

Photo Frames - Keep your best pictures in exclusive photo frames. You can add romantic messages like 'lovers forever" or "ideal couple". Romantic lines from songs or poems are recommended too. You can pick from the various frames obtainable like natural wood, quality resin, or metal steel.

Private messages are mostly engraved by laser or cut out of wood. The couple would love putting there favorite wedding photos in such frames to remind them of the happiness of their special day.

T-shirts - Show your own personality and feelings by having them printed on comfortable tees. Many couples would love to demonstrate their love for each other on cute shirts. The most widespread of the slogans on these shirts is the letter "I" followed by a big red heart and then name of the groom or bride.

You could tell the world how you feel towards a person with such a bespoke tee. If you want to be more intimate, you could even print romantic messages on lingerie or underwear.

Accessories - Women love accessories. Bracelets are ideal items for personalization. You could choose sterling silver or even 9 carat - 22 carat gold. This depends on your budget, of course. But remember, it is the thought that counts.

Common themes that are put on bracelets are the date of your wedding or your anniversary or the couple's name. You can personalize rings and necklaces in the same way too.

Tankards - Tankards are very useful. If you are giving a gift to the groom, customizing his beer mug or wine glass would definitely be appreciated. Choose a beer mug that is not embarrassing. Pewter or glass look nice and the personal message would stand out clearly.

Clocks - You could buy a wall clock or personal watches. Either way, you can be assured that the recipient would find them very useful. Engraving one's name on a metal steel sports watch is an eye catcher too. A pocket watch would be equally valued.

Looking for wedding gifts can be very enjoyable. Personalizing your gifts would add a special touch to each present. No matter the value of the gift, remember that it is always the thought that matters most.
