BLOG 4: TOP 10 GIFT IDEAS FOR A NEW BRIDE

BLOG 4: TOP 10 GIFT IDEAS FOR A NEW BRIDE:

 Hi there! We're excited to bring you yet another one of our interesting bi-monthly gift blog where we spill all of our best gift ideas for occasions, special moments & thoughtful gifts even for 'non-occasions'. 

This time we are talking about Brides! Weddings are such happy, fun and memorable occasions & we are glad to be talking about suggestions for gifting a girl friend, bestie and gal pals on such occasion. Just in case you are out of ideas, well... you are just on the right track!

1. Cash: 

Our number one on the list is cash gifts. Cash is never a bad idea. Your girl friend is going to be paying for a lot of services, paying wedding vendors, buying lots of things that'll she need for the occasion, saving for honeymoon, saving for after the occasion, buying new things for her new home and so much more. Cash gifting is one way you'll never go wrong! Giving gifts of cash can go a long way in giving her practical, moral and financial support.

2. Giftcards & Tickets + Greeting cards:

For us, we'll say giftcards & tickets are the next best thing. You may give the bride tickets to the movie, or giftcards to the spa, facials, or to any treatment or relaxation spot.  A bride really needs this due to the stress from preparing for the wedding. Helping her unwind and de-stress is both practical and emotional support for your friend which she will appreciate very much. You may give giftcards to restaurants for the couple to use after the wedding, or just gift cards to stores that she'll love to shop decor, home, food and groceries from after the wedding. 

Giftcards go well with nice handwritten, generic or custom greeting cards.

3. Girls Day Out / Spa Day! :

Very similar to our no.2 is the Girls Outing / Spa Day idea. Your friend and bride-to-be will appreciate your just being there. Just talking, someone to hug when having a hard time, manicure/pedicure time at the nail salon, not just giving the tickets to the movie- but actually going with her, are all ways to help a bride-to-be destress. She may also be more open to tell you other ways she will need you to help with the planning of the event. 

4. Team bride souvenirs & gifts:

You may also support your friend by volunteering to make fun souvenirs for the wedding or bridal shower. Making branded shirts with phrases such as "Bridal Squad" or "Team Bride" can add so much fun & glamor to her day. This may also help with the photo props for the wedding photoshoot and bridesmaids photo session. Branded wine glasses, mugs, eye mask/cover etc are other examples.

Other gift ideas she may love and appreciate include:

5. Scents and candles.

6. Wine + wine glasses

7. Beautiful fabric / Whites : 

Some brides may want to appear in white outfits for their rehearsal dinner, bridal shower...etc

On the other hand, beautiful fabric for making statement custom dresses are popular in many customs for a bride in whatever gorgeous colors you may think of.

Other ideas may include white outifts or fabric or whites of everything else that a bride may appreciate as she will be needing a lot of these for the mini-events up to the wedding and little appearances after the event. Examples include white dresses, white skirts, white blouse, white robes, Outfit sets etc

8. Jewelry: Earrings set, Watches, Necklace or Neckwear sets, Beading, Tiaras etc may be other things a bride will appreciate.

9. Accessories : shoes, bags, jewelry are all going to be great wardrobe updates for your girl turned bride if you ask us.

10. Wall Art / Home Decor: 

Your girl turned new bride will be decorating her new home, so very lovely interior decoration pieces may be appreciated.
