A young couple I know is getting married soon. They already live together and have most of the household items such as dished, glasses, kitchen Gadets, etc. What are some sort of fun luxery items that a poorer couple might not think to buy themselves becuase of money constraints? Just about every item on their registry has already been purchased. They don't need or want cooking items, cleaning items, or other traditional wedding gifts.
I don't want to give them money because the groom will just use it to add some stupid accessory to his car.
Silk or satin sheets or some really nice ones maybe embroidered.
A month paid at the Fitness Gym/tanning bed.
Somtimes you can get those artists in the mall to scetch a portrait of them (from a photo) then you could frame it. Personalize a cheaper frame to make it look expensive.

A Bose stereo. It is expensive, but worth all the money. The sound is incredible.
1200 thread count sheets. Yes, they do exist. They are amazingly comfortable (I have them in my bed!).
Maybe you could buy them a His and Her spa day…..now that’s luxury.

A book on how to budget their money. Young married couples need to know how to budget their expenses, save money, and how to make their money work for them. So they can have a college fund for their children, enjoy vacations, etc.

A gift card to a nice restaurant just because they’re married doesn’t mean they can’t date or if you know where they are going on their honeymoon call the hotel and see if they have gift baskets for the room or a gift certificate for something they can do while they are away.

Some of the best wedding gifts are the ones that match the couple’s personality or interests. At my wedding (since it was a second for both of us) many friends gave us Karaoke items (new mics, etc) and beautiful Items to hang on the wall. (a set of three crosses as we are active church members)
If the couple loves to go hiking, buy them a weekend at a B&B near a state park. Ask the Mother of the Bride or the Maid of Honor if you are unsure of the interests. They will remember your gift for many years to come.

A TOASTER..! lol im kidding, of course, how old school is that?
i would say something personal, like peronalized bath robes/towels. i know its household, but its a little more creative than regular items.
or even like, a months subscription to a movie store. that way they can use it to spend time together

Reservations to a nice resort, including dancing, massages, a nice dinner with wine or champagne, that should be a change of pace.

You could buy them vouchers for plane tickets worth a certain amount of money. My fiance and I love to travel, but don’t to save more money for our house. That is a perfect gift for a young couple…a chance to get away together!

You could buy them like a day at the spa with each other. That would be so cute. Like a couples massage or something. You could buy like a gift certificate and put it in a basket filled with bath and relaxation stuff with a bottle of wine to add more of a special touch than just a gift certificate. They would love it especially if they planned the wedding themselves and aren’t going on a honeymoon. Good Luck!
