Special Gifts For A Special Bride

Bypass the same old tired gifts for the bride of coffee maker

, toaster, or china place settings. Turn your knowledge of the bride and her groom into a unique gift that could only come from you. It doesn't have to be expensive and probably won't cost you more than that place setting.

A night out on the town

After all the engagement parties, showers and wedding festivities, the bridal couple may feel a little let down when life returns to normal after the honeymoon. Treat the bride and her hubby with a night out on the town. Line a basket with gift tissue or straw. Include tickets to a movie, play, or symphony performance that's getting rave reviews. If you're not sure of when the couple has a free spot on the calendar include a gift certificate that can be redeemed for the tickets. Add a bottle of wine, cheese and crackers and a box of very good chocolates for an apres theater snack.

A night at home

Find a DVD of her favorite classic movie. Package it with gourmet popcorn, licorice twists or other movie theater candy, soft drinks and a CD of the sound track of the movie. Depending on the movie and the season, add a warm throw to snuggle under or a couple of beach towels.

Her favorite dish

Most brides have a favorite food dish they love. Find an online recipe for the dish or a cookbook that has the recipe. Bookmark the recipe in the cookbook with a brightly colored ribbon. Place the cookbook or the recipe and the nonperishable ingredients in an appropriate container. Add a gift certificate to a gourmet grocer for the perishable items. For example: If her favorite dish is lasagna, the gift would include no cook lasagna noodles, a jar of good marina sauce, a hunk of Reggiano Parmesan cheese, olive oil, cheese grater, pot holders, bottle of Chianti wine, with a gift certificate for the fresh mozzarella cheese and ricotta cheese. Place the items in a colander that has been lined with a couple of red checkered dish towels.

His and her spa

Weddings are hectic. What better gift than a spa for both the bride and the groom? This gift can be expanded or narrowed down easily depending on the budget. Line a basket with two plush towels. Add terry cloth bath robes for him and her along with soaps, scrubs, loofah mitt, bath puff, essential oils, massage oil, and scented candles. Gift certificates to the local day spa can be included as well.
