1) Not Personal: Unless there is something I am missing, buying a wedding gift through a gift registry will almost guarantee you that the gift will not be personal. Give the new couple a wedding gift that is personal and reflects them and their relationship. I guarantee that they will want to show it off forever! 2) Not Unique: A gift registry is simply a listing of all the things the couple wants for their wedding that they need for their new house. How unique is that? Not very! Think outside the box. Be different and buy a wedding gift that is unique! 3) Not Creative: It is impossible for a wedding gift from a gift registry to be creative because you as the buyer did not think of the item as a gift for the newlyweds. The couple did. 4) No "Wow" Factor: Personally, when I buy a gift for someone for any occasion, I want the recipient to open the gift and say, "Wow... that is really neat!" That will not happen with a gift from a gift registry. So, be creative and unique by giving a very personalized gift as a wedding gift and you will definitely create a big "WOW" when the newlyweds open the gift. |
