There had been a recent trend of buying unusual wedding gifts and there are many reasons for it. More and more people are living together before they get married which means that they already have a lot of the traditional gift. Also, guests want to out do the other guest and buying unusual wedding gifts is a way to do it.

I was invited to a wedding recently, a medieval wedding theme. I didn’t go because I had other commitments. The couple there had an interesting way of guest buying gifts. We didn’t have to buy normal gifts, the couple thought it would be nice to request money for the honeymoon but in a slightly different way.

They thought about the individual things they wanted rather than saying ‘give us money for the honeymoon’. After they decided what they wanted to do on their honeymoon they then found out how much each one cost. As an example, they knew they wanted to easy out at a certain restaurant so they work out the price and presented it as an option. They did this for a range of activities.

As a guest you then had the chance to go and decide what you wanted to ‘buy’. You could buy a brunch at the local cafe or if you were feeling generous you could pay for a scuba diving lesson. In return they would take a picture of them doing it and would send that picture to you.

As you can see from above it isn’t solely down to the guest to find unusual wedding gifts. The couple getting married can provide a list which should help.
