There are two ways gift giving during a wedding can go. This can either be the give away trinkets that newly weds give the attendees or this may be the gift an attendee can give the couple. The matter can either be depending on budget or practicality.
For the attendees finding the perfect gift can be tricky. While a registry may be present, there is still the dilemma of surplus. Picking newlywed romantic gifts needs a good amount of thought. If you really consider what the couple wants, practical would always outweigh romantic. But in perspective an extra 500 bucks for the honeymoon does sound pretty romantic already.
Cutting to the chase, these people are bound to receive many presents on such a special day. If you give something remotely useless, it may be endangered of being thrown in the bin, after moving from one house to another to start a family. First off, although it does seem quite unlikely, avoid, or never just ever give them pets.
They already have a lot to spend on the event and since they are tying the knot, they probably are planning to have kids. There would be no need for more cute creatures in one household nor do they need the financial obligation. If the couple already has pets, then it would be better to have a well designed basket of treats and toys that their current pets want.
Things that have embossed letters, especially monograms should only be acquired by the bride and groom or anyone who helps with organizing the ceremony. Towels, jewelry or anything really that are monogrammed can be disastrous. And they would also have a hard time returning the gift. The worst thing that could happen is that you might get the wrong initials.
Self help books as gifts may be counter productive. No matter how well meaning you are, this may just be seen as a rude gesture. It would be like blatantly telling the couple that they may be inadequate to, one be a couple or two, raise kids. This mishap can blow to epic proportions especially when you are attending one that you did not know was a shotgun wedding.
The thing with furniture is that it has to be perfectly planned out before buying them. This is a big no no, unless of course they ask a specific one in the registry. One it has to fit their technical needs, and two it has to fit the space they plan on setting it up in. These couples probably do not need 10 more sets of cutlery so spare them the hassle of having to find a place to store all of these.
Do not even consider re gifting. If you are not currently able to give the bride and groom anything best just offer them your best wishes. Excursions during their honeymoon should only be given when they specifically ask for it, otherwise, they may just seem to find the whole activity tiring. They are also likely to have somethings planned out already anyway.
If nothing extra creative goes in your head while deciding on a present, money is the safest bet. It is even very likely that is what these newlyweds want and are just to polite to ask for. Apparently, it seems like a shortcoming on etiquette if you ask for cash on your wedding day.
