A few weeks ago, I asked my past and current Brides to send in their favorite unique/personalized wedding gifts that they received during their wedding. The gifts that weren’t exactly on their wedding registry but gifts that they loved.
Normally I steer people away from buying items not on a registry (bc it’s there for a reason) but at the same time, I received a few unique gifts that I never even thought to register for but loved and from all the responses I received, so many of you guys did too!
With my best friend getting married this upcoming September, I’m in the market for personalized gifts so as I go through my search, I figured I share everything with you!

(1) CUSTOM WEDDING DRESS ILLUSTRATION
How unique and lovely is this. Of course you’d either have to be super close to the Bride or wait until after the wedding in order to gift this to her but I just love the idea so much!
(2) PERSONALIZED THROW BLANKET
(3) CUSTOM FAMILY CREST
I think this one is seriously so cool and so unique. I think you’d have to know the couple really well in order to do this one but still love.
(4) WEDDING KEEPSAKE BOX
I saw this recently and wanted to order one for myself! It’s a lovely and easy place to keep all of your wedding keepsakes (think flower petals invites, menu cards, party favors, custom napkins and etc) in one place.
(5) PERSONALIZED STAMPS
Unique, affordable and is something they will be super thankful for once they start writing their thank you notes.
(6) PERSONALIZED DOORMAT
Love this idea for the newlyweds! There are lots of different doormat designs out there but I love this one bc it’s simple, clean and sleek.
(7) FRAMED WEDDING INVITATIONS
This would also be a great anniversary gift! Something simple and classic they’ll love that wont be on the registry. Just make sure to pick a high-end frame that matches their decor.
(8) PERSONALIZED RECIPE BOXS
A Custom Recipe Box filled with recipes from the newlyweds closest friends and family. This was an idea sent in by one of you guys that I just absolutely loved!
(9) NEW INITIAL JEWELRY
You can’t go wrong with a piece of jewelry for the Bride-to-Be with her new initials!
(10) PESONALIZED JEWELRY DISH
Personalized Jewelry Dish with the Bride-to-Be’s new initials. Something super lovely and simple that she’ll love.
(11) PICNIC BASKETS
This is one of the things we didn’t register for but received and absolutely LOVE. You’d be surprised how much we use it.
(12) WEDDING VENUE WATER COLOR PAINTING
A super lovely and unique gift the couple will love! It’s simple and classic.
(13/14) CUTTING BOARDS – TRAYS – CHARCUTERIE BOARDS
We received multiple variations of all of these and love/use each one so much! A solid choice if you’re looking to do something unique but don’t want to go over board/ aren’t sure if the couple would want it or not.
(15) CUSTOM HAND PAINTED CHAMPAGNE BOTTLE
This is idea is a little $$$ but so chic. It would be the perfect gift to give the bride at either her Bachelorette Party of Bridal Shower. The cost depends on the type of champagne of course so below are a few different price options.
