Wedding present help needed

hahahavefun — Tue, 25 Apr 2017 05:53:46 GMT

My cousin , best friend sister all in one is getting married in July and I'm stuck on what to get them .
They have only just totally renovated their home and everything is new .
This lady means the world to me , we grew up together ( both 56 , only 3 mths between us ) and in all this time we have only ever had one falling out .

What do you get someone who has everything ?

If you know her so well I would ask if she has a Gift List with a store....or a Gift Voucher from a ritzy store that she may not shop in normally.

Or something completely non essential but totally decadent that she would not buy for herself.

I have in the past gotten a whole lot of photos with the person and all their family members, cut them into different shapes, mostly the important bits and pasted as a collage then nicely framed.

Quality self made things are always special.

There are a few places that do them, I'm not sure of prices or which site is better than others

Penicillin - Sorry old joke.

Daughter has a star named after her. I thought it was a great present.

You get a certificate, and then you can have it nicely framed.

I would give them a voucher for an experience.

Balloon ride for two

weekend away with tickets to a show

winery tour

glamping weekend somewhere or spa resort

dinner out at an amazing restaurant

Something like that.

Depends how much you want to spend too, but sometimes they have really good deals on things like that on the various online sales sites such as Living social, groupon, catch of the day. A couple of years back, I got a week for 2 in Cairns in the deluxe room at a hotel, with airport transfers a half day rainforest tour, breakfast daily & a bottle of champagne all for $400. You can often do much better on weekends away etc

I like this idea. I particularly like the fact that it is a present for the couple, not just for your cousin

A fruit cake, then wait to see how long it is before it gets gifted back to you.
