With your wedding fast approaching, have you remembered to come up with a wedding gift idea for the groom to celebrate the occasion? The act of giving and receiving wedding gifts is a long tradition that goes back ages! While giving a gift is an optional tradition, reminding your partner that you have been thinking about them throughout the crazy process of getting all of the smallest wedding details planned will be much appreciated. Here at Lucky Little Chapel, we love to see creative takes on old traditions, so we’ve put together a small list of fun and easy wedding gifts!
Giving Your Significant-Other a Gift in Time for the Honeymoon
There is so much attention around wedding planning that goes into creating a wonderful experience for all of the guests that it can be very important to stop for a moment and remind each other that the wedding is for you both. It’s a longstanding tradition that the Bride and Groom exchange gifts for their wedding. The gift exchange can be big or small and it can happen before, during, or after the wedding ceremony. The point is only that you give something meaningful to the other person to celebrate your union.
So what should you give your groom-to-be?
Give Something Engraved
Coming up with ideas for a gift can be hard, especially if you’re dealing with somebody who seems to have everything they want. If you’re having a hard time coming up with gift ideas for your wedding, a classic gift idea is something (anything) engraved. Engraved pens, jewelry, keychains, containers, and even dog tags make wonderful gifts for the Groom.
A Watch
Another fun and easy wedding gift idea is gifting your groom a watch is a timeless gift whether it is engraved or not! No pun intended. Giving a watch as a wedding gift, whether it is a wristwatch or a pocket watch, is a great way to make sure that your hubby has a way to accessorize when they dress in formal attire on the day of your wedding or whenever they have an important business meeting down the road.
A Monogrammed Glass Set
It may seem cliche, but every man wishes that they had a fancy glass set to keep next to the wet bar. Like something out of Mad Men, a monogrammed glass set that bears your initials can be the perfect wedding gift to give.
Book a Bridal Boudoir Session
If you’re looking for a wedding gift that is sure to spice things up as you head into your honeymoon then you may want to consider booking a bridal boudoir photography session. A boudoir photo shoot is an intimate gift that your partner can look back on for many years to come. Not only is a bridal boudoir photography session perfect for a gift for the groom, but it can also be a wonderful gift for yourself that makes you feel sexy and empowered. Personally, we recommend visiting a studio that specializes in boudoir photograph.
