Creative and Unique Wedding Gift Ideas

While no newlywed couple is going to turn down cold hard cash, most couples do appreciate receiving a memorable, creative and unique wedding gift. Finding a perfect wedding gift can seem like a daunting task, but it needn't be. I have compiled a list of unique wedding gift ideas that are creative and thoughtful at the same time.

Creative and unique wedding gift idea - Margarita fixings

Does the couple soon to be joined in wedded bliss have a soft spot for alcohol? Alcohol, especially the top shelf variety can be very expensive. For many, the first year of marriage is a lean one. The couple is just starting out and doesn't have a lot of extra money to spend on frivolities. Gifting the Margarita-loving couple with a gift basket of everything they will need to fix Margaritas will show them that you put some thought into their wedding gift. It is a creative way to let them know that you are tuned into their tastes, with the added benefit of knowing without a shadow of a doubt that they will love the gift. Go ahead and splurge on top shelf liquor by buying the couple some Cointreau and Centanario Silver. Be sure to include the coarse salt and limes. Margarita glasses are very inexpensive to purchase and will finish off your gift basket perfectly.

Creative and unique wedding gift idea - Engraved Brass Door Knocker

A decorative brass door knocker is a unique gift idea, since getting one does take some forethought and planning. Many on line retailers, such as Knobs and Things, offer these creative gifts with the engraving option, and ship them within 5-7 days. Newly married couples enjoy monogrammed gifts that they receive because they are not ordinary with personalization. A decorative brass door knocker will personalize the newlyweds' new home and will last for years. Expect to pay between $25-$50 for this gift.

Creative and unique wedding gift idea - Personalized Platter

Personal Creations offers a cute, personalized platter depicting bride, groom and wedding party. The platter can be personalized with names and even has different characters to choose from based on gender, hair color, skin color, hair styles and dress colors. This unique and creative gift is both fun and personal. It would make an excellent gift for an attendant to give to the bride and groom as a wedding present, as well as for anyone who knows the wedding party well. Personal Creations also offers the same personalization on other gifts such as wedding glass flutes and Christmas ornaments, both unique gift ideas as well.

These wedding gift ideas are easily adaptable to suit your intended gift recipients' needs and your budget, as well as being creative wedding gifts that are unique and thoughtful. While it is nice to get a toaster for a wedding gift, it is also nice to get a fun and memorable gift that you will remember fondly over the years to come.
