Find The Perfect Wedding Gift For Your Favorite Bride And Groom

June is the traditional month for weddings.  I love going to weddings – and I love shopping for wedding presents.  Most wedding couples do have at least one wedding registry list - and you can’t go wrong if you shop from it.  However, sometimes I feel like being creative and want to stray from the beaten path just a little, particularly if I know the recipients well.  With that in mind, I’ve put together a few contemporary gift ideas that would be thoughtful wedding gifts.

One of my favorite design brands is iittala.  Elegant Finnish design is present in each and every piece they produce from delicate glassware to functional ovenware.

Iittala's contemporary take on the traditional cast iron pot is sure to be a welcome gift for anyone who enjoys cooking.

Also from iittala is this glassware designed by Tapio Wirkkala.

Wineforawedding.com offers a cute gift idea for a wedding gift that keeps on giving.  This gift box holds three bottles of wine and can be customized.

 Wooden salad bowls come in lots of shapes and sizes – and are indispensable for making a traditional Caesar salad.

Chopped salads or colorful summer salads look fabulous in a sleek glass bowl.

I like the idea of these salt and pepper mills from Williams Sonoma.  The flip of a wrist grinds either salt or pepper with one hand.

No weddings in your immediate future?  I’m sure these suggestions would be welcome gifts for other occasions as well!
