How to Give Food as Wedding Gifts

Wedding is that once in a lifetime (in most cases) occasion which marks a new life for both the parties involved. It is not only the start of a new relationship for the bride and groom but also of two families. Indian weddings are well known for their big fat avatar and preparations start months before the big day.

Choosing a wedding gift for the newlywed couple can be a daunting task and most of us think ‘How should I choose a unique wedding gift?’ In this article, we will explore a few food-related gifts as food plays an important part in any relationship because stimulated taste buds can mix beautiful flavours in love life.

Know Their Likes and Dislikes

Before we start checking the food items which can be chosen as a gift for the couple, it’s essential to keep in mind the preferences of the couple or either one of them, their culture, society, profession etc. This will help you to ascertain the right kind of food gift and not the one which will be kept somewhere in a corner or even worse, will be treated as a pass-on-wedding-gift.

The good news is that foodies usually like to experiment with flavours and cuisines and will welcome new experiences. So if you're not sure what they like, something new and interesting will surely catch their fancy.

Additional Gifts to Complement the Food Related Gift Items

Small additional gifts which can increase the usability/taste of the food gift item will ensure that the newlyweds will use your gift and not just keep it in a closet. Sometimes a thing as simple as a baking glove may refrain someone from using a microwave. They will keep on planning to use it someday when the baking gloves will be available. So adding small items may encourage the recipient to actually use the gift rather than keeping in the box.

A Beautiful Greeting Card to Wish Goodluck for Future

A lot of beautiful greeting cards are available in the market / online which have nice wedding complements. If you are attending a theme-based marriage, try to look for a card which matches with the theme. Selecting a beautiful card will add value to your gift and you can convey your feelings and best wishes in writing, which can be kept as a memoir for a long time by the recipient.
