Thoughtful Wedding Gifts for Creating Lasting Memories
The wedding season rings in a joyous note, as exuberant young brides and grooms brim with confidence, eagerly awaiting their new journey together. While we enjoy celebrating this special day with them, there’s also the gnawing question mark of what to gift them. The more weddings we are invited to in a season, the bigger and bolder the question marks get! After all, wedding gifts are meant to be personalised and unique. Zeroing in on the perfect gift that brings a “WOW” – can be quite a challenge.
Allow us to help you enjoy wedding gift shopping, so that you can make the most of the season. Let’s begin with some valuable tips that will facilitate the right choices and make your heart swell with pride, as you present your gift to the bridal couple.
The short checklist that follows, will set the tone for the perfect wedding gift shopping.
Define Your Budget
You definitely need to cap your wedding gift/s budget, more so if there are many weddings you are invited to. After all, you don’t want to be left cutting corners before the month ends. How much you spend on each wedding gift will be defined by how close you are to the couple. A close friend or family member’s wedding gift will definitely have a much bigger share in the pie, than a rather distant associate’s gift. It's important to keep in mind though, that everything is not about how much you spend, but on how well your gift matches up with the couple’s tastes and needs… Which leads us to the next important checklist point.
Understand the Couple’s Persona
Knowing the couple’s persona – tastes, style, likes, and dislikes, makes it easier to figure out what will truly delight them. If the bride or groom is well known to you, this will be child’s play. If not, the person who invited you can definitely throw light. A gift that is bought exclusively with the couple or the bride or the groom in mind – will be remembered well into their wedded life.
Knowing the Couple’s Future Plans
If the couple is slated to settle abroad or away from the wedding city after marriage, they would probably have to leave behind bulky gifts, however useful or expensive they may be. Hence choose your gift judiciously. If the couple is having a destination wedding, appropriate large sized gifts are fine, but should ideally be delivered directly to their residence.
With the ground well-laid, your mind and heart will be in a much better position to filter out what’s right and what’s not, as you set to shop. You’ll be able to narrow down the options and save valuable time – more confident with your final choices.
Let’s make the process easier for you. Presenting some great wedding gift ideas that are endearing as well as enduring, elegant as well as exceptional, fascinating as well as functional… and definitely value for money. The icing on the cake is that you can sit in the comfortable confines of your home, at the hour that best suits you, and shop from our online portal, to circumvent the unpalatable weather, and truly enjoy your wedding gift shopping. What’s more is that we can even deliver the gift to the destination of your choice in India!
