8 Gift Ideas For Couples
5. Cushions with Names
Buy a pair of heart shaped cushions from the market and give them to a local tailor with some lace fabric. Ask the tailor to stitch their names on the cushions and to sew both the heart shaped cushions together. Imagine how pretty that would look in their bedroom or even in their living room, for that matter!
6. Customized Holiday
Plan a holiday for your friends (the couple in question) in the format of a treasure hunt. They should be clueless about what they are going to do next. The destination might be on the outskirts of the city and not very exotic, but it is the excitement of not knowing what is going to happen next that will make it a memorable trip for them. Throw interesting details in your planning such as a pre-ordered meal for the two in the hotel restaurant or a new bottle of wine for the couple each day, so on and so forth. This should definitely prove to be their second honeymoon!
7. Short Film
Today there are many user friendly free softwares which help you collate, edit and modulate images and sound. If you have lots of pictures and videos of the couple, or if you can steal their wedding album, you can easily make an amazing short film. Add your own voice recording of all the funny, embarrassing and emotional moments – and become the director of this little film. This will refresh the couple’s memories about the fun times in life!
8. Ask them
The best thing to do is to ask them what they would like to have as a gift. This works even if you do not know them too well. Instead of assuming that they would like the gift that you give them or hoping that they would like your taste, it is best to just ask them what they would like for a gift. If you are really close to them, you can even let them know about your budget and how much you can afford.
Gifts have to be personal. Always remember that when you are gifting, make it about the other person and not about you. It is important that the receiver likes the gift more than you.
