Gift ideas?
in Married Life
I posted this over on the Knot but wanted to get some ideas from some of you since you're most likely already married....
A friend of mine is getting married. We lost touch but recently reconnected. I'd like to get her something, around the $50 range.
Her registry is nearly complete. I want to avoid picture frames, gift cards, etc as I feel they are kind of boring and thoughtless.
I was thinking about a wine decanter. Good idea? And other novelties/interesting gifts come to mind?
Thanks
Re: Gift ideas?
We definitely needed some picture frames for our wedding pictures, so I don't know if I'd agree that they're thoughtless. However, if they didn't register for them, they may have other plans and/or what you get them may not be their style.

Why not ask her what she needs? Then go from there.:)
If they drink wine, then a decanter is excellent! I'd pair it with a bottle of wine.
Do you know the area they live in? You could get them a gift certificate to go out to dinner.
Thanks everyone! I did decide on a beautiful decanter. She registered for wine glasses, and I checked with a mutual friend and she said it was a good idea. I would have paired with a bottle of wine, but I had the gift shipped.

You could always get a really nice set of wine glasses or champagne flutes for $50.00. Here are a few links just to give you some ideas.
