The best wedding gifts for celebrating in style in 2025
Apr 9, 2025
Your idea of what constitutes the best wedding gifts says a lot about you as a person. The diversity of taste that will exist within even the couple themselves proves that there's no cut-and-dried answer when it comes to the question: “What the hell should I buy my newlywed friends?” Many will have immediately considered sending money, while others would baulk at such an idea. In short, one man's set of cutlery is another man's idea of a dreadful cliché.
So what to do? As with housewarming gifts, the art of wedding gift shopping is a subtle one that largely hinges on the personality of the giftee in question. Where one friend may love a simple photo frame or set of crystal wine glasses, another may prefer something practical for the honeymoon they have planned in southeast Asia.
Having said that, we've spent the majority of this article focusing on the former: somewhat traditional wedding gifts that at least toe the line of what you might expect to give or receive while church bells ring. From simple but effective bottles of prosecco to a ceramic essential oil diffuser (to outrageous coffee-brewing alarm clocks for the adventurous), read on to discover our edit of the best wedding gifts to buy right now. See you back here in a year for the anniversary gift search.
