Shopping - Wedding Gifts - Inexpensive & Practical Wedding Gift Ideas

You don't have to spend heaps of money on the wedding gift - they will after all be getting presents from many other people and you do have to consider other expenses like clothing and travel. There are plenty of gifts you can buy that are inexpensive without looking cheap.

  • Photo albums, photo frames, and scrapbooks - They'll definitely need somewhere to put all of those memories, so these make great practical gifts. You could also give the couple a frame containing a photo of themselves or if you're crafty, a scrapbook or photo album of memories and poetry.
     
  • Homewares - Chances are they've already lived together and even if they haven't they've probably been living on their own a while. Which means they'll more than likely have many homewares already. But if you can talk to those in know (parents, siblings, friends), you can find out what they might be missing and what might need updating.
     
  • Wine - Practical, sure, but it also makes an inexpensive, meaningful present. Buy a really nice bottle of wine and attach a note to it saying: "To be opened in 10 years time".
     
  • Decor - Candles will be needed for all those romantic dinners at home the newlyweds will be having. If you have an artistic bent, paint a picture or make a collage and get it framed.
     
  • Help them out - This one you have to be careful with because they might already have this sorted out. But you can offer to help out during the wedding by taking the wedding photos, doing the wedding video, playing chauffeur, cooking the food, etc. Be graceful if they say no and know that there are plenty of other personal gifts you can give them.
