Warm, sunny days bring more than lush greenery and relaxing outdoor activities. They also set the perfect stage for weddings. Weddings are an exciting, life-changing event for the couple and their friends and family. If you’re looking for the perfect, unique gift for your favorite couple, a handmade gift is a great option. Whether they’re newlyweds, or they’re celebrating their 10-year anniversary, we have some ideas for gifts that they will cherish for a lifetime.
Give them the gift of a fun date night! If the couple is outgoing and adventurous, a gift certificate for dance or cooking classes can give them some entertaining nights out as a married couple. For low-key couples, try giving them a gift basket with everything they need for a lovely night at home. Include ingredients for a homemade dinner, a bottle of wine, and a copy of your favorite date night movie.
Help them remember their big day for years to come by framing some wedding keepsakes. Frame a wedding invitation or ceremony program with some photos of the couple. It will remind them of their wedding day every time they look at it. A shadowbox is a great option if you’re including other mementos, which won’t fit in a standard frame.
Another custom option is to make map art that’s as unique as the bride and groom. Cut out a map of each of their hometowns and frame them together. You can also create map art that celebrates their journey as a couple by including the locations where they first met, where they got engaged, and where they got married. Map art makes for an affordable gift that is also sweet and sentimental.
You can also draw your inspiration from the couple’s wedding song. Frame a photo of the couple’s first dance as husband and wife along with the lyrics to their wedding song. It’s an interesting twist on a traditional gift. If you or someone you know is talented at calligraphy, an elegant, handwritten version of the song lyrics can add a nice personal touch.
