Wedding Season

It’s time to say “I do” to these Wedding gifts! Some couples are strategic and strict about their registries, however, in my experience with all the celebrations leading up to the big day, there are plenty of opportunities to gift something unique. So if you’re not one to buy a blender for the newlyweds, check out my top registry picks for brides and brides-to-be as well as gifts in all price ranges for bridal showers, engagements, bachelorette parties, or perhaps an anniversary.

Engagement Celebrations

1) Speak Wines – “The Future is Exciting” ($25)

speak-wine-the-future-is-exciting

Forget message in a bottle – #speakwines feature messages right on the bottle. The trick to save on shipping is to join the email #clique for exclusive sales or buy in bulk (free shipping on orders over $100). Bottles are only available for purchase online in California so be sure to buy in advance.

2) Sugarfina Champagne Bears ($8.50+)
