What do you get the bride that has everything?

tkddddddddd

I'm in a wedding this June and the bride has gotten everything. Like, everything. Her shower was a good 40 gifts or so (I am SO happy for her - she deserves each and every gift!) and the registry is cleared out (except for the expensive items). I want to get her something amazing buuuutttt with planning our own wedding...we don't have a lot of money.

What do you get the bride whose gotten everything already? I don't want to get her a gift card because we're only able to get a $20 - $30 gift it I would love ideas! Thanks!

What about a nice picture frame or something for the home like a Vase or a nice throw for their bed.

I'd probably second the picture frame.  Or you could get them a voucher for one of those photo book things that you can have printed with digital photos in them - I think those usually start around $25.

Well I typically give physical gifts at showers and checks at the actual wedding. So if it were me, I'd write her a check; everyone appreciates money! Even $20 or 30 is fine!

One of the best gifts I got at my shower was a piece of natural slate with my grandmother's Irish Soda Bread recipe on it with Celtic knots surrounding it.  It's definitely unique and was inexpensive (I had one made for my mom for Christmas).

Is there a family recipe you could do this with?  Or a verse of the couple's wedding song?  Perhaps a line from a favorite movie of the couple? 

When someone has everything, you have the ability to be more creative.  Have fun!

A frame with a picture of the two of you is a great idea!  I got a two sided frame for my MOH when we graduated high school:  One side had a picture of us in our cap & gowns, the other side had a picture of us playing dress up in gowns and my mother's heels when we were 7 years old.  She cried.  It cost $11.

A gift card to a store she is registered at is also a great option.  That way she can put your gift towards a more costly item off her registry.  That and a nice card can feel a little more personal that a check or a $20 bill.

Did you consider a nice bottle of champagne for their first anniversary?  Or you could go more sentimental.  There's a lot you can do to preserve the invite in a beautiful way.

PPs gave awesome ideas. The only other suggestion I had was to go in with some other poeple on a more expensive item.

Why don't you check out Etsy for something made with their wedding date that matches their decor?

My Mom and her wife got us a really cool thing piece of slate that is a wall hanger. It's all handpainted with a sunset, tree, and horse (very fitting for me) and says THE "ourlastname" Est. June 23, 2012

I LOVE IT and can't wait to have a real home to hang it in!

I love everyones ideas - - but what I dislike the most - -  are knick knacks.
