Wedding Wednesday: Unexpected Gifts For The Bride & Groom

( Via Inslee )

Registries are a helpful tool for both the newlyweds and the guests. They take the guesswork out of gifting. Even if you want to go off the grid with your gift, it is good to check their list to see the couple's taste and color scheme. I tend to give the unexpected for the wedding, then use the registry for the showers. If you are looking for inspiration, this edit is for you with something for all budgets.

Ten Totally Unique Gifts
