I know the bridal party isn't always expected to get the couple a wedding gift, but since all the moolah we've spent has been for her specifically, I'd like to get a little something that includes the groom as well.
But I'm also kinda broke after all this wedding stuff, so I'd like to keep it in the $25 range. Maybe frame their wedding invitation? Any ideas?
Preferably nothing handmade, since the last time I attempted a craft project I super-glued myself to the floor...
Re: Suggestions for an inexpensive gift for bride & groom?
A foil-wrapped houseplant, wrapped in foil and ribbon by the florist
A breakfast basket or mixing bowl $5 (you could make your own, with a basket or bowl from Michael's Crafts or a dollar store or Marshalls). Add pancake or blueberry muffin mix $5, a wisk or spoon $5, a bag of coffee $5, a small maple syrup or jam $5. Wrap it all in seran wrap and add a bow.
A vase and bouquet of flowers (if you know they don't have allergies to flowers)
A restaurant giftcard for a nearby romantic but affordable restaurant like Olive Garden or Red Lobster or Thai or Japanese (nearby to their home....you could goggle the choices)
A "his" and "hers" pair of slippers (try walmart for affordable ones) - wrap in one packet with a blue bow and a pink bow and tag..."his" "hers")
Hope this helps
So my parents recently got a bottle of really nice champagne through their wine club. But bubbly drinks give my mom migraines, so she gave it to me to give the couple as a wedding gift. Gift problem solved!
Unless that would be an inappropriate gift... thoughts?
Although a bride should never expect a gift, it is still etiquette to bring a gift, even if you are part of the bridal party.
I would still buy a gift, even if it is something tiny from the registry
