Tips to Buy Custom Wedding Gifts

The custom of registering gifts has changed over the years. It is not just about buying fine china anymore. The couple can also list items that they need in their new homes or something that will help them build their new lives. You can choose casual dining items if you want to give them something they can use in their everyday lives. Even though classic white towels and dishes seem like boring gifts, they are actually of more use to them than buying something expensive that they will never use. 

You can partner with other guests and give the new couple something more expensive and meaningful. Rather than going with what is left in the registry, ask the other wedding guests if they would like to pool in to buy a gorgeous dinner set that the couple will truly appreciate. 

There are so many customization options these days. You can buy custom chocolates with the couple’s initials on them or personalized wedding gift such as wine glasses or towels embossed with their initials. Customized gifts are very thoughtful and shows how much you care. 

The safest bet is obviously to stick with the registry. However, when you need to be quick about it as you wouldn’t want to lose out on all the good items and get stuck with the ones that are at the bottom of the list. Understand one thing, if the couple put it on the registry, it means they really want that item, ergo, they will treasure your gift more. 

Do not ever give anyone anything related to home décor. Buying something you thing will make a great centerpiece for someone else’s living room is like imposing your choice on to someone else. You never know how the space is decorated and your choice of art may not fit in well. In this case, it will either be re-gifted or gather dust in the back of the closet.
