Hi guys,
I just want to gather an idea from you what is the best gift for a good friend of mine. She will be getting married this coming April and I am so very happy with her. I witnessed how she love her boyfriend so much because they were college sweethearts. I am honored to be there in her big day but I do not have any idea yet what should be the best gift I'll give with her and her fiance that will they totally appreciate. Would you give me some best gift for a wedding couple please? Thank you

It is really hard to choose which is the best gift for your good friend for her important day.but I think whatever you give her as her wedding gift,she will love it and be very happy,so don't be so worried.She will feel your blessing in that day.Finally,I wish your friend has a happy marriage.

hi there kokomo..
I think for me the best wedding gift are those that can be useful in their house because they're still starting to put up a new home. A set of cooking utensils will work. =)
Good day.

Hello kokomo this is checkmail and if you want to present them with your warm wishes, better choose something of great importance to you and also have use to both of them.That way you and your friend both parties would be satisfied with each other emotions.The gift can be anything, modern accessories, money, retro, anything.

I would suggest two gifts, one a monetary one and another one is a personalised one.
Perhaps you may buy a hotel/travel voucher for them, or a romantic dining voucher.
Another gift could be a set collage of their college life together. Anything that you
know that brought them together in the first place as a reminiscent for them. I believe you know the gift better than us since you know the bride so well. All the best and so happy for your friend.

I always want to give gifts that has a personal touch. Why not buy an inexpensive comforter and then scan pictures of them from the time they started until this day and have it printed on a cloth and sew each of the pictures all over the comforter? I am sure both of them will be delighted with it.

I think,you should give her something that she wants to have,but does not have till now for some reasons.Or something that's of her choice.You must be knowing what her choices are.If you have no idea about it,better ask her.Don't let her know that you are going to buy something for her and talk to her in such a way that she tells you what she wants to purchase,but is unable to for some reasons.Then buy that thing for her.It would really be a nice surprise gift for her.

Give a gift that would be useful for both of them and arrange a surprise party for them with your college buddies we did it out with one of our friends and it worked out quite well

For me the best gift for them is a vacation or a trip in any beaches.

generally money is the best gift for weddings.
but how about the custom in your country? in turkey we give gold and money to the wedding couple.
so here its the best gift.so i dont know your country's custom.
but i think even you give money or gold,it would be great i think.
i wish you can decide it easy.
peace

Well, if they are registered anywhere for gifts then that is really a good place to start.
For me, however, I'm not one of the people that will typically give gifts to a person that is off of the registry that they have. Instead, if I really know the couple that is going to get married very well, I will think of something that I would be able to make to give to them.
One of my favorite gifts to make for a couple that is getting ready to get married is an afghan in colors that will match the newlywed couple's living room decor.

A nice set of frames to put their wedding pictures in. Check and see if they have a register to see what they have put on their lists for wants.

My top idea is a handmade scrapbook with your shared memories (I mean the memories that the couple and you share, not only your friend and you). That is really personal, and I'm pretty sure they would cherish it more than any prepackaged store.bought gift.
You could also give them vouchers for wellness weekends, theatre, or some kind of quirkier kitchen appliance - something which is useful but not boring or average, like a fondue set or an ice cream maker.

I would like to suggest to give them a Spa gift certificate where they can use it after the wedding. Wedding preparation is very stressful and tiring events in very couple, they need to relax and pampered themselves after the wedding were spa is the perfect place release all the stress.

Please think to give something that she will appreciate, not necessarily her fiance ... lol ... after all love is conservative in nature. Whatever you give, it should reflect your taste of life. I had presented someone a pot with a money plant, some other with a curtain to place in their house and even a pack of contraceptive in closed glass bottle to another friend, which can be used by breaking tht bottle, i mean in emergency. Think different, you are the best judge in fact.
