How To Properly Choose And Give Newlywed Romantic Gifts

By Christopher Richardson


There are two ways gift giving during a wedding can go. This can either be the give away trinkets that newly weds give the attendees or this may be the gift an attendee can give the couple. The matter can either be depending on budget or practicality.

This article will focus on what the newly weds are meant to receive. Newlywed romantic gifts may not be hard to come by, but thinking of a good one can definitely be the challenge. While there is an endless list of what you can give them on their special day, there is not much said about what you should not.

How wonderful it would be if for every wedding invitation there was also a list of things that people should avoid giving newly wed couples. If you can come up with something that is both romantic and practical for them then you have solved a problem that has plagued wedding goers for centuries. The closest and most appropriate gift that can fit both romantic and practical would be cash.

It would be a stretch too far to say that a single item given by friends or family can affect the marriage in the long run. But initially these things are meant to boost their building of a family to the right direction. The first thing that you should avoid giving are pets. They do not need another liability in their lives, when one, they may be planning to have kids, or two, have spent a fortune on the wedding.

Things that have embossed letters, especially monograms should only be acquired by the bride and groom or anyone who helps with organizing the ceremony. Towels, jewelry or anything really that are monogrammed can be disastrous. And they would also have a hard time returning the gift. The worst thing that could happen is that you might get the wrong initials.

Self help books that advice them on any aspect of their marriage or having kids can be a 50 50 matter. But best to lean on the 50 that says do not do it. The things is that this gesture can be misconstrued. While this may be given with the best intentions, it just tells the newly weds that they are less than qualified to have tied the knot.

The thing with furniture is that it has to be perfectly planned out before buying them. This is a big no no, unless of course they ask a specific one in the registry. One it has to fit their technical needs, and two it has to fit the space they plan on setting it up in. These couples probably do not need 10 more sets of cutlery so spare them the hassle of having to find a place to store all of these.

Re gifting is just so much rudeness, that if you do this it just shows that the matter was not given enough thought. That in itself should already go without saying. You may also think that it would be a good idea to book them a special activity on their honeymoon venue or somewhere supposedly fun. These honeymooners are already likely to have something planned out for their days off.

Engaged couples preparing for their union have a hard time asking for cash, even when that is probably what they need the most. The matter really is just an issue of etiquette. As an attendee, if you still are unsure about what to give, then best to just go with money, a gift card or a special perk of a service you know they can use in the future.
