Wedding Gifts to Remember
Why do you think a wedding gifts was made? Do you have an answer to this? Well, if not, you can very well find the answer here.
There's a saying about gifts and that is, 'It's better to give than it is to receive.' Now if you ask couples who have had weddings, they'll probably tell you that on their special day, they received some of the nicest gifts ever, so these people might not agree with this saying.
But whether it's for better or for worse, gifts given by the bride-and groom-to-be are certainly part of the wedding tradition.
So who makes up the group fortunate enough to receive a gift from the bride and groom? Members of the wedding party top that list.
That includes everybody: best man, maid (matron) of honor, bridesmaids, ushers, groomsmen, junior bridesmaids, flower girls, and ring bearers. It's also a nice gesture for the bride to give a gift to the groom and vice versa, although this is not mandatory.
Nowadays, the bride and groom also include each set of parents on the gift giving list. And finally, it's definitely a nice gesture to give a gift to any other person who did something special during the occasion.
Sometimes someone will be asked to do a special reading at the ceremony, or to step in for the bride's father and walk the bride down the aisle and these individuals should be acknowledged.
The purpose of these wedding gifts is to show your appreciation, not break your wedding budget. A gift that has been specially picked out shows you put thought and consideration into the gift. Including a personalized note with the gift thanks the person for whatever role he or she played and it is certainly a nice touch when having the gift engraved with the wedding date and couple's names or initials.
Make sure you have the gifts purchased about 4 weeks prior to the wedding date. That gives you enough time to have them engraved and to create your personalized messages. To help the gifts make an even greater impression on the recipient, take special care in wrapping them.
Use fancy wrapping paper and elaborate bows using colors that complement the wedding colors. The best time to give your gifts is during the rehearsal dinner, as it's intimate, and the people to whom you're giving the gifts should all be present.
Need some gift ideas? Well first check your wedding budget to see how much you have allocated to this category. You've likely spent quite a bit of your money by this stage, so it's important to take a realistic look. Brides typically give each member of the bridal party a piece of jewelry or a hair clip that the bride would like her to wear on the wedding day.
* Other gift ideas include bud vases, picture frames, bath oils, a collectible item or a gift basket.
* The men in the wedding party like to receive engraved pens, pocket watches, cigars, business card holders, a clock for their desk, or key chains.
* For the parents, a professional wedding photo in an engraved frame is perfect as is a personalized letter detailing your appreciation.
* For each other, anything that conveys your love and devotion is ideal.
