Whether you are the maid of honour, the best man or an
invited guest - in fact anyone except the bride and
groom-it can be a minefield to buy the right present for the
happy couple. Thankfully gift lists are becoming increasingly common
which allows the guests to select items from a list that the couple have
already approved and this ensures that you are not wasting your time or
money choosing the wrong gift. However, many couples still do not opt for
this choice, and so a decision still needs to be made. To buy or not to buy?
Buying a wedding present can be difficult but chances are that if you have
been invited to celebrate their marriage, you must know the couple quite
well. Why not consider a hobby or pastime that they both enjoy together
and buy them something related to that? Maybe there is a gift you could
give which has some connection with how they got together? Maybe a film
they saw on a date? Or a place they went on holiday? Whatever it is
though, remember that it doesn’t need to cost a small fortune. Often
something which is personal and clearly shows that a lot of thought has
been put into deciding it, is worth more to the couple than an extravagant
and expensive gift.
Another factor to consider
is the stage in their life together
that the couple are at. Are the newly-weds about to
move into their first home together? If so then maybe some-
thing that could be useful in the home would be a thoughtful
present. It doesn’t have to be the old cliché of a toaster or

kettle either. Why not try to think of a gift which is practical

If the newly-weds already have children, you could consider
buying a present which is not only useful to the couple them-
selves but can also be enjoyed by the children too. If you
