Creative Wedding Gift Ideas For The Happy Couple

By Krystal Branch


You are attempting to come up with creative wedding gift ideas for an upcoming ceremony. Something different and unique is what is on your list, something that no other guest will even think of. Elegant presents are easy to purchase for a bride and groom but it is the authentic, straight-from-the-heart ones that will be remembered and talked about for years.

Give a gift that keeps on giving. If this couple seems to already have everything they could possibly want or desire, give to a favorite charity in their names. Perhaps they have a parent who suffers from cancer or heart disease. Maybe as a child one of them had been exposed to a long-term illness. World poverty or the plight of children seems to be something they may wish to contribute funds to. Whatever the case, choose one that they would choose for themselves if they had the money.

Another present that will last a lifetime is a tree for their backyard. This tree could symbolize their lives as they grow together - pictures next to the tree can be taken every anniversary. Their children's photos can be taken under its leaves as it gets larger. If the couple owns their own home with a large yard, this can be a very thoughtful choice. If they still live in a condo or apartment and have plans to purchase a home, buy them a small tree in a pot that they can take with them and plant when they choose their new place of residence.

You can also bring their engagement photo to a local artist and have him re-do it in oils, chalk or watercolors. This will give them a wonderful and unique focal point for their living room or even their entrance. This gift will provide many memories of the road to their very special day.

Think of what they really need. As a newly married couple, they probably don't have a lot of time or money to pay for certain luxuries. Pay for lawn care for a summer. Give them a certificate for pet sitting or dog walking. Offer to house sit their home while they travel on their honeymoon or go on a long vacation.

Taking past photos of the couple when they were just beginning to date and others all the way up to the wedding and having them blown up on canvas will give them wall art for their new home. Choose pictures that they may not have seen before so they can be a real surprise - the more spontaneous, the better.

Dining out is special and giving a gift card to their favorite restaurant will delight them. It might be where he first met her, had his first date with her or proposed to her. Whatever the case, choose a location that is close to their hearts for a huge impact.

Creative wedding gift ideas do not have to be extravagant or expensive. They just need to come from the heart. The better you know the bride and groom, the easier it will be to select the absolutely unique and most creative gift for them.
