Most couples now a day already live together and feel that they already have everything, including the household items they need. If you are one of those couples who are an “Already have it all couple” then make a wedding gift list that is apart from the traditional?
Asking for an Adrenalin Rush
If you are individuals who make their own rules than go ahead and make your own off-the-beaten-track Wedding Gift lists too! Make it as adventurous, romantic, and relaxing or down right untraditional as you want.
For a newly wed couple wedding gifts like balloon rides, paragliding, lessons on honeymoon for scuba diving or a relaxing weekend in a health spa all seem like exciting and unconventional wedding gifts. Although such gifts are usually expensive, but encouraging guests to club together or contribute towards something in vouchers is a great way to make these dream gifts become a reality.
Money or vouchers
Requesting money or vouchers is no longer a novelty these days as wedding gifts, but some elderly or more traditional guests might fine it a bit rude. However the advantages of being able to spend your wedding gift money on what you really want without going on a guilt trip, simply out weighs the possibility of it being rude.
Charity gifts
It is also becoming popular, yet is still considered unconventional to ask guests to donate money to your favorite charity instead of spending it on you.
Bathroom accessories
When two people come together under one roof a lot of taste, styles and values get intermingled. This is especially the case in bathrooms, where odd towels get mixed up with modern fittings and old-fashioned accessories. Demote your old and odd towels to beach use and ask your guests to treat you to a new set of luxury towels or beautiful matching his and hers bathroom accessories.
Outdoor living
If you are one of those couples who are lucky enough to have a garden, then tree sampling, plants, garden furniture and garden accessories will make a wonderful wedding gift for you. How about putting a set of lanterns or a table-top chrome-plated barbecue on the wedding gift list. Outdoor heaters are yet another great option for couples who love to entertain out-doors.
Food and wine
If you are a wine lover than go ahead create your own personalized wine list. Compile a list of affordable wines from Champagne or spirits, and ask guests if they would prefer to buy a bottle for you. This will help you set up an impressive wine cellar in your home.
