Christmas Gift Ideas for Newlywed Couples
Do you know someone that has just got married? Whether it’s a sibling, your best friend or your favourite work colleague, you may be wondering what to buy them for Christmas.
So, here’s a few gift ideas for the happy couple:
A star map
Humanity has always been fascinated by the shiny dots in the sky. Over millennia, we have found repeating patterns in the movement of the stars and planets. Babylonians created predictive charts (so-called ephemeris) of the movement of celestial objects as early as 350 BC. Technology has come a long way since, and today we are able to replay and predict the movement of the stars from any location and time, with high precision.
So why not gift a Star Map? Under Lucky Stars are making star maps with the greatest possible attention to scientific accuracy. They use the Bright Star Catalog from Yale University as their main source of celestial data, among several other astronomical databases. It contains galactic coordinates of all the stars visible from Earth with the naked eye. These coordinates place each star in a galactic coordinate system. When creating a map, they process six high precision data points of over 9,000 stars. So all you have to do is pick the perfect date and your star map is born!
An experience
After the stress of planning and the whirlwind of the big day, give the newlyweds the gift of an experience for Christmas. It’ll give the couple something to look forward to, enable them to spend some quality time together and offer the chance to relax and unwind. It could be a fancy dinner – so they can get dressed up and not have to think about cooking for one night or it might be a spa day, a good example being at the https://www.thefloatspa.co.uk/, so they can take the weight off their feet and pamper themselves with a massage or a facial. Either way, it’s a gift they will both be very grateful for.
A subscription
Subscriptions are the gifts that keep on giving and they are perfect for newlyweds. This could be a bunch of flowers, that keeps their home full of blooms for months after the wedding. Alternatively, you might choose an alcohol or food subscription, so as their lives get busy again they can plan in some time each month to sit and enjoy some food or shake up a few cocktails together. There are so many to choose from that you are sure to find one that is perfect for the couple.
Custom illustration
You could print off a photo from their wedding day and frame it but they will probably do this themselves. Something they probably wouldn’t think of, that will be a little more unique and special, is a custom illustration of their favourite wedding day photo. Check out Etsy where you’ll find plenty of artists offering this. It’ll be the perfect memory of their big day.
Personalised products
The festival of Christmas is near, and you still have not bought the gifts for your family and friends?.or And, you have absolutely no idea what to get them? anyone. This is a dreadful scenario but can be countered with a little help from LuckyBobbleheads. You can get them Christmas-themed bobbleheads of Santa or even customized little versions of themselves. It is the perfect gift to bring holiday cheer to you and your loved ones and show that you care. The bobbleheads of Santa, reindeers, snowman, X-mas trees, etc. all can be bought according to your choice to spread the holiday to your family and friends.
Date night hamper
You could, of course, put the present together yourself and what better than a Christmas hamper that encourages them to have a date night? Fill it with a bottle of bubbly, their favourite snacks, candles, flowers – whatever you think they will need. You could also create some date night cards with questions that encourage them to reminisce about the wedding day, such as ‘what was your favourite part of the day.’
Check the wish list…
Buying for newlyweds can be tricky because they have likely just received a lot of gifts on the wedding day. But, this is also useful because many couples create a wish list – are you able to find out what they didn’t get from this? This could be the perfect present because you know it is something that they both really want or need and will not have.
So, which gift are you going to choose for the newlyweds this Christmas?
