Unique wedding gift ideas

While I won't be expecting any gifts as we are having a destination wedding and our guests presence will be presents enough, I thought I would discuss unique wedding gift ideas as I'm sure once you start going to a few weddings you will quickly run out of ideas or get worried someone might bring along the same gift!

Here are some unique ideas for those hard to buy for brides and grooms without a gift registry.... or you just want to give a gift that is truely different.

Bird Nesting House

This cute bird nesting house will add a nice sweet touch to any newlyweds garden by British writer and designer Sophie Conran. 

There is nothing nicer than watching a pair of birds move in and start a family. Simply hang up, ideally at least a couple of metres off the ground and wait for the new inhabitants to arrive.

Price: AUD$32.00 

Mystery Tube

A postage tube filled with unique and original art by artist Kirst Ohh.   The idea behind the mystery tube is that for $65 you buy an original piece of art but you have no idea what it is until it arrives in the post or is given as a gift!

Price: AUD$ 65.00 (Postage included)

Weekend hire of a luxury sports car

Why not treat your friends with a Porche Boxter for an entire weekend (three days)! If you are lucky they might even treat you to a ride.

Table Settings

How gorgeous is this table setting?!

Teal, gold and white.  So chic and crisp it works so well together and having a contrasting table runner makes the whole setting pop.  Ziz zag is one of my ultimate favourite patterns with its simple angles it adds an optical element and makes is SNAZZY!

The coloured rim of the plate is amazing, I die for this colour.  My absolute favourite in the whole entire world.

As I get closer to a year out from my own wedding I am starting to think about how I really want things to look.  

This picture from theweddingtree tumblr blog is a great inspiration.

What are your favourite colour combos?  

Stay Snazzy,

Kirst
