The sun is shining and summer is nearly here in full swing. For many people, this will mean the start of their social circle’s wedding season. Thousands of excited couples will be getting wed up and down the land this summer in front of their nearest and dearest loved ones. There are generally two main problems for guests to consider before a wedding. Firstly, it is important to choose the right dress or suit to wear. Anything too flashy will threaten to take attention away from the bride and groom which is a definite faux pas to avoid.
Secondly, one has to consider the tricky question of what to buy the bride and groom as a wedding present. The fact is that many couples cohabit before they get married nowadays, which means that they often have many of the traditional wedding gifts such as a dinnerware set already. Many couples set up wedding gift lists which offers suggestions to guests regarding the types of presents that they would like to receive. However, this does take away a certain element of surprise. As such, here are some suggestions for guests who want to provide the wow factor with their gifts this year.
Jewellery
Okay, we’re not talking some naff old his and her jewellery out of a high street retail listings store catalogue! Instead we’re talking about something that will last forever and be sure to put a smile on the bride and groom’s faces. Diamond jewellery is a timeless gift that can be passed down throughout the generations. We know that a lot of men may not want to wear a diamond ring or necklace, but a smart diamond encrusted watch or diamond cufflinks will simply ooze a sense a class and prestige.
Ladies will be delighted with almost any type of diamond jewellery. From sparkling earrings to stunning bracelets, show off your love and respect for the newly married couple by buying them a gift they’ll never forget. If you have any doubts about your budget, simply talk to a diamonds professional who will be able to go through the range of different products on offer. There is no need to break the bank when buying quality jewellery. Set out your budget and see what types of beautiful gifts are available to buy.
Holidays Abroad
If for some reason you feel that jewellery isn’t the answer, you could always book a holiday abroad for the couple instead. From short city breaks to week long beach vacations, a holiday will be a present that will live long in the memory of the recipients. Search online for some excellent deals. Of course, it may be wise to check with the couple when they are available to go away before you book the tickets. Alternatively, there are many companies that allow you to buy holiday vouchers which the couple can then use at a time of their choice. Whatever gift you choose, make sure you enjoy the big day.
