Gift ideas for newlyweds they probably don't have on their registry

Gift ideas for newlyweds they probably don’t have on their registry. Don’t get me wrong, you should probably buy a gift from a couples registry. I bet you could agree that there is no better gift than one that you actually asked for, haha.

This curated list of out of the box ideas you can gift. It actually can work for different seasons, too, it can be perfect for a holiday/Christmas gift or housewarming gift. It can be a couples gift even if they’ve been married for a few years or are yet to be married. Maybe they don’t even have a registry for their wedding! Don’t let the word “newlywed” hold you back on this. These gifts can work for couples at all different stages.

Being in the wedding industry, I see and hear about a lot of different things couples are asking for and receive as gifts for their celebration. Let alone what I’ve personally experienced as a bride, and walking the journey along side of my other friends who got married.

I’m a big fan of gifting a personalized gift that feels more unique to the couple. Hopefully this list can spark some ideas for your gift-giving needs, too!

Gift ideas for the newlyweds who love to host:

If they already live together, it’s likely they have the dishes and glassware they need for the day to day. But what about when they host others? You can gift them more specialty items like these:

These gorgeous Vintage Art Deco Coupe Glasse s are a perfect timeless gift.

And this GreenLife Bakeware healthy ceramic nonstick baking pan.

I don’t know who I would be without my Cast Iron Skille t. It’s a staple for any home chef, and can easily replace all of those “gift sets” that won’t last forever (like this one will!)

Maybe your gift idea for newlyweds is more in line with this Pizza Stone with Metal Support Sta nd.

A more fun and interactive gift could be a kit to try to cook something new, like this Soup Dumpling Ki t.

For mornings at home, check out this Copper French Press Coffee Make r. We actually got this for our wedding and we’ve used it for 6 years (and counting!)

While we’re at it for the practical gifts, how about this UV Cell Phone Sanitizer & Dual Universal Cell Phone Charger Box?

For couples who love to play games:

Trekking The National Park s. I think having a few 2-player games is a staple for newlyweds! I love the theme of this for adventurous couples where they can share memories and dream about where they might travel to next.

HUES and CUE S. We actually had some friends of ours bring this over and it’s a great choice for someone with game anxiety. It’s all about describing a color. Simple and fun.

Maybe card games are more their style? You can check out Taco vs Burrito Card Gam e. Quick 15 minutes of gameplay for this surprisingly strategic game.
