Wedding Wednesday: Off Registry Gifting

I recently attended a family wedding, and perhaps was a bit late in selecting a gift for the lovely couple. There was only one gift left from their registry that I would consider gifting. Normally I enjoy being creative with my gifts, and do go off registry. If you know the bride and groom well, it is perfectly fine to think off registry. Here's inspiration for your next wedding gift, no matter what your budget.
