| So they finally went and did it. They decided to make it official and declare their love for each other in public, in front of all their friends and family, with the dress, the cake, the flowers, bridesmaids and even a best man. Everyone is doing it, getting married, having the wedding breakfast and the honeymoon, just like their parents and grandparents before them. The time honoured tradition is back in fashion. It's even happening to the most unconventional of all of your friends. You just knew that they were the ones who would never get married, ever, just to flout convention. They may end up living on a barge or a gypsy caravan but no way, no how, would they go for this. Mind you, their vows will probably be taken as they hover precariously from a rocky overhang, 60 metres up a mountain, or astride a glacier next to some hungry looking polar bears in the frozen northern wastes. Nevertheless, they are actually getting married. And you will be there to witness the whole amazing event.
So you need to mark the occasion with really special wedding gifts. It must be real true love if they are tying the knot at last, so make it a romantic gesture when you chose wedding gifts">wedding gifts for them. You do hear of people taking their mothers-in-law on honeymoon with them, but I think that is extending the hand of friendship just that bit too far. Seeing they have surprised everyone with their big announcement, it is fair to assume that they will not want any interruptions once their long awaited honeymoon begins and your wedding gifts will reflect this. Amusing but useful wedding gifts are the reversible Just Married and Do Not Disturb door hanger, a cute heart shaped leather gift that will protect them from intrusions from the outside world, for those moments when they want to share exclusively in each other's company.
When the excitement has died down, the honeymooners return home to find that their wedding photos have been delivered and they start to think about how they will display them. A really considerate wedding gift is a beautiful picture frame, made especially for holding wedding photos. It is lovingly finished with a chain of charms draped across the top of the frame. A Just Married Charm Frame is the ideal wedding gift and will be given a good home straight away, and is exactly what the happy couple will need once the celebrations are over.
You have known the bride and groom for some time now, and are well aware of their ability to enjoy a party with a drink or two. So when it is time to turn the lights out after the wedding party, or at any other time for that matter, a great way of ensuring that they get a great night's beauty sleep and an extended lie in, is to give them the essential wedding gifts a pair of matching bride and groom satin eye masks. They will soothe the stress of the day away with their soft sheen and will be wedding gifts that will be used repeatedly, particularly during the continuing celebrations of the honeymoon.
If you are still stuck for ideas, why not think of giving wedding gifts that will lift their spirits after the celebrations and honeymoon are a dim and distant memory. This is the time when the happy couples start to feel a bit deflated. After all, they have probably spent best part of a few months preparing and planning so that their big day will be utterly perfect. Once it is all over, they are left feeling a little lost. Your wedding gift to them could have them back on top of the world with a thrilling experience day for two that is unlike any other. Harness Sphereing is all the rage, and is so exhilarating that it will take their breath away and make their knees knock. This extreme wedding gift experience finds them harnessed into a kind of giant balloon type structure and rolling down a hill wondering which way is up. The happy couple will experience this adrenalin rush together, and squeal as they might; it ain't over till it's over.
If you think that they have had enough excitement for one lifetime just by getting married, perhaps a slightly more subdued experience day would be a more suitable wedding gift. What could be more romantic than a balloon ride for two, taking in the sights and peace and quiet as the bride and groom drift across the blue sky together and float hand in hand into the horizon. Let them imagine themselves to be the stars of their own Oscar winning movie with this wonderful wedding gift. Who said the age of romance is dead. A revival is beginning and your wedding gift proves that it's true. |
