There’s nothing we love more than a wedding. Let’s be real: is there anything better than celebrating the true love of a sweet couple? You get the chance to dress to the nines, and who doesn’t love dancing the night away with your happy friends? But when it comes to picking a present, we find ourselves a little stressed and pretty bored of the usual registry fare. Has anyone ever actually used a silver pitcher? While it may take a little more effort, the good news is this is the perfect opportunity to show the bride and groom how much you care and how well you know them by giving them something they’ll cherish for years to come. Take a deep breath, relax, and find a little inspiration in this list of wedding gifts we put together. Just don’t say you had any help!
KitchenAid Stand Mixer
Nothing takes the grunt work out of baking like a good mixer, plus they’ll think of you every time they whip up something sweet.
Le Creuset Dutch Oven
There’s no greater satisfaction than hosting a dinner party and having the guests rave about your food. Give a kitchen classic that makes perfect stews and casseroles.
Decorative Tea Towel
Nobody really wants boring old dish towels. We love this gift for adding a touch of unexpected flare to the kitchen.
Welcome Mat
For the couple eyeing a new home, give them something chic to put right in the entryway. We adore this doormat because it’s super cute, yet durable enough to last for years.
Decorative Pillows
With so many shades to choose from, these throw pillows give you plenty of options. This is a great gift if you already have a sense of their design aesthetic and are looking for that perfect complement.
Chalkboard
Starting a life together means keeping track of all sorts of new shared responsibilities. A chalkboard is a great way to jot down notes for spouses, and the wood frame on this one is très chic.
