12 Creative Gift Basket Ideas for Weddings and Showers


Beautiful, creative Gift basket ideas for the newlyweds!

Romantic Breakfast Kit

Give the newlyweds everything they need for a romantic breakfast. Start with cooking utensils like spatulas or spoons from the bridal registry. A waffle maker would also make an excellent centerpiece for this gift.

Add pancake mix, store-bought or homemade, a jar of artisan jam and some real maple syrup. If your gift is going to be consumed relatively soon, include some high-end local bacon or sausage. Wrap it all up with a tray for breakfast in bed.


Picnic Basket

A picnic offers an intimate experience where a newly married couple can enjoy each other's company in nature. Start with a large picnic basket and fill it with items they can use for the perfect meal outdoors. Buy linens like a tablecloth and napkins from the gift registry. You can also include some stemware or tableware and items like a wine bottle opener.

Include a bottle of wine, some high-end cheese, a box of crackers and some Italian style meats.


Relaxation Gift Basket

Build this gift around any bath products the couple has placed on their registry. If they've asked for body scrubbers, bath pillows or even a shower caddy, that would be a great start.

Get some warm fuzzy slippers for each person and buy robes if your budget will allow it. Fill these with luxurious body washes, bath bombs or even bubbles. Wrap it all up with towels and washcloths that the couple requested.  Better still take a look at these indulgent bath and body gift baskets. She will love a relaxing pamper bath basket!


Gift Baskets for Life

Household tools make a great wedding gift, and the couple might have requested them on their registries. Buy a large toolbox and fill it with all kinds of useful tools. Include a hammer, screwdrivers, wrenches and other hand tools. Include picture hanging supplies and nails in a variety of sizes. You can also buy more expensive electric tools like a saw, drill or electric screwdriver.



Grilling Gift Basket and Supplies

If you're going to splurge on a big item like a grill, jazz up the gift with some grilling supplies. If a grill isn't on the registry or is out of your price range, consider a smaller portable style grill. Get a variety of grilling accessories like baskets, forks, and sticks for kebobs. Add some excellent barbecue sauce, dry rubs and a book of grilling recipes. Top it off with matching grilling aprons.


Gardening Gift Set

Help the newlyweds make their home prettier with a gift that will help them in the garden, especially if spades, rakes, and shovels are part of their registry.
Buy a large pot for planting and arrange your items inside. Add some seeds or bulbs, fertilizer, seed starter kits and even a live flower or two.




Pasta Gift Baskets


Buy a large pasta pot or a pasta machine for a couple with one on their registry. Also get pasta spoons and items for measuring the right amount of pasta. Fill the pot with all kinds of high-end and interesting kinds of pasta and jars of pasta sauce. Include spices like garlic powder and Italian seasonings. Include fun dishcloths, aprons and oven mitts in fun patterns.


The next time you need a gift for a wedding or a bridal shower, consider a gift basket. You'll be giving the couple something you know that the newlyweds will enjoy as well as a unique wedding surprise.

Unique Wedding Gifts for the Bride and Groom

d-unforgettable-romance-gift-boxEverything about weddings tends to be special from the floral arrangements to the selection of the banquet facilities to the choice of a honeymoon to the wedding menu itself. The bride and groom are celebrating their love for each other and each of the guests have been invited to share in this very special occasion. Wouldn’t a unique and entirely unusual gift be just a bit desirable as well?

Of course it would, but today, just about everything has been thought of and given as a wedding gift. However, a few things still exist that haven’t become common or ordinary gifts for the bride and groom. A few of these are listed below. Even if some of the choices do not appeal to you, some of them might. Additionally, you can always put your own spin on the gift ideas.

Plan a night of romance and remembrance for the bride and groom. Locate a restaurant that can duplicate the wedding menu for dinner. This shouldn’t be too difficult due to the sheer abundance of fine dining establishments. Talk to the owner of the restaurant about personalizing the gift certificate to include the prearranged meal. Include a bottle of the same champagne that is used in the wedding toast. If possible, be secretive about the actual details of the planned dinner on the gift certificate so that everything is a big surprise for the couple.

Use details you’ve gleaned from your relationship with the couple to create a scrapbook detailing their life together to date. Ask other friends and family for input or additional photographs, etc. Leave several blank pages at the end of the book so the happy couple can continue the scrapbook on their own.

If you have literary talent in your blood, write a short story that tells the story of romance surrounding the bride and groom. Have someone illustrate the book and get it professionally bound. Be sure to include a personal dedication in the front of the book.

Find out the bride and groom’s favorite songs and purchase a collection of CDs of the original artists for each of the songs. Search for magazine or newspaper articles on each of the artists and put together a small booklet.

Put together a video or DVD using photographs and personal commentary. Again, ask others to contribute to this project. Personalize the container that holds the video or DVD.

Re-enact the couple’s first date. If this isn’t possible, mimic the details to the best of your ability. Purchase tickets, make reservations, and even throw in some spending money.

Purchase a yearlong supply of congratulatory gift baskets to be delivered to the couple’s home once a month. Arrange to incorporate a different theme for each basket. For example, send the couple a holiday themed basket for each month that includes one such as a Valentine’s basket in February and a Halloween basket in October. You can arrange to be billed monthly or pay for everything up front.

Purchase a yearlong membership for two at an area attraction. The list of possibilities is endless- museums, zoos, movie theaters, theatrical venues, and more. This small token of your appreciation guarantees lots of opportunities for the happy couple to get out on an inexpensive date.

Purchase a yearlong supply of gift certificates that can only be used one month at a time. Again, this provides the couple with an opportunity to get out on an inexpensive date once a month. Plus, you can vary the restaurants that the gift certificates are good at. Either stick with the tried and true favorites of the bride and groom or include restaurants that might be out of their financial reach.

Purchase a weekend getaway at a resort for several months from the date of the wedding. Check with family members to see if the date you select will be good. Alternatively, you can arrange with the resort that you select for some flexibility with the details. How nice for the happy couple to get a second honeymoon, even if it is a shorter one.

If the bride and groom have purchased a home, and no regulations exist against in their neighborhood, purchase an ornamental tree of high quality. You can arrange to have the actual tree delivered after they return from their honeymoon. This will be a constant reminder of the growing love the two of them share.

Although any wedding gift is certainly appreciated by brides and grooms the world over, a wedding gift that goes the extra mile in thoughtfulness is certainly going to create a memorable impact. Use a little imagination to modify the ideas listed above to create an even more personalized version of your own to create the wow factor in the gift you choose to give to the bride and groom.
