Original wedding gifts

Invited to the wedding? There are three tasks in front of you at once! The first is to come to the wedding celebration not empty–handed. The second is not to get lost among the many invited guests. The third is to make the gift stand out for its originality, and not for its worthlessness and inconsistency with the spirit of one of the most important events in human life.
What can not be given for a wedding?
It is not necessary to believe superstitions, but it will not hurt anyone to know about their presence. At least to spread straws, if the gift you have chosen has fallen into the risky gossip zone of gossips who are always ready to spoil the mood for themselves and others. And such, alas, are found on almost any family holiday.
So, the people's rumor gives bad omens:
- Knives and all sharp objects, including tie pins and brooches: they allegedly promise constant quarrels, quarrels, and even irreconcilable hostility, leading directly to divorce.
- Mirrors are credited with the ability to endow young people with selfishness and narcissism, which has a bad effect on relationships with the second half.
- Antiques – antique objects of art and everyday life seem to store all the negativity in the relationships of their previous owners.
- Handkerchiefs – a sign says that they are given to tears and strongly advises to double-check the sets of home textiles seven times, suddenly an imperceptible tiny handkerchief got stuck among napkins and towels.
- Potted plants – they are credited with the ability to draw vitality from the young and prevent the birth of healthy children.
- Watches are anything, they seem to shorten the time allotted to family well–being.
- A young wife is not given combs and hairpins, which make her mind short and her will suppressed.
- Climate control equipment like an air conditioner and a fan are suspected of "cooling" the senses.
- Candles are responsible for melting happiness.
- Fragile things are better not to give, because they can break during the wedding, and this promises trouble.
The list is far from complete, but if you announce it all, then there is a great chance to leave the young without a gift at all. Just in case something didn't work out. However, the same superstitions also provide a universal recipe for getting rid of bad omens. Doubtful, from the point of view of bad omens, gifts should not be given, but sold. If you doubt something, ask the young people for a penny in return for the present they are given and eat, drink and have fun at the wedding with a calm soul.
Is it better with money?
They really never bother a young family, because they fill the newly-made husband and wife with colorful envelopes with monetary contents. But!!! There are etiquette restrictions. It is not recommended to give money if one of the newlyweds is your immediate superior. It is ridiculous to give money to people whose financial condition significantly exceeds your own.
Wedding gifts to make money
You can give money not only in the present, but also in the future. At least the donors firmly believe in the fulfillment of their ringing wishes to the young and give gifts of the appropriate orientation. For example, such:
- The amber money tree is its second name, the "Tree of Happiness", both in one and in the other a young family is in dire need. Add here the exceptionally positive energy of the solar mineral and an unobtrusive interior accent, which the gift will become in the cozy mink of the newlyweds.
- Wall panel "Money fish" - scales made of real coins are entrusted with attracting money to a young family. The Goldfish itself, if you believe Pushkin and the folklore he borrowed, is a whole storehouse of benefits. It should be given with a wish for the fulfillment of all conceived, desired and expected.
- The wall souvenir "Money Shovel" is a miniature pick-up shovel with precious Zlatoust patterns on a velvet backing in a baguette. That's how young people will rake in money until their hands get tired, and when they get tired, they will hire a team. At least that's what you sincerely wish them to do.
- The caviar bowl with the Poseidon ice bowl - everything in this set speaks not just about prosperity, but about royal abundance. For a greater effect, the caviar bowl can be filled with selected caviar or hard coins.
- The clock "Time flies – time is money" – time is money" - a bronze masterpiece from the Italian creative workshop Venturi Arte will remind you of the value of every minute, including material. For anyone who remembers this, money is usually not transferred.
Useful wedding gifts
These include housing, cars, household appliances, home textiles, kitchen and household utensils, furniture, bedding, dishes – everything that will help a young family settle into their own home. However, aerobatics, when in addition to usefulness, the gift also sounds in unison with the wedding march. Here are some gift ideas:
- The Prestige table set (Zlatoust) is a win–win option from the point of view of practicality: guests will have to be received in the house and with such a gift, receptions will be worthy.

Yes, not alone, but in the company of a granddaughter, or maybe already great-granddaughters? The artist found them sitting on a bench. Who are they? It's clear who! When else would you want to live to such happiness, if not at a wedding.
