Wedding Gifts for Couples: Ideas They'll Use for Years

A wedding gift is one of the few gifts that stays in a home for decades. The best ones aren't the most expensive — they're the pieces the couple actually uses, in their first kitchen, on their first dining table, in their first pooja corner. Here's how to choose well.

How much to spend on a wedding gift

• Colleague or acquaintance: ₹1,500–₹2,500 is generous and appropriate.
• Close friend or cousin: ₹2,500–₹5,000 for a single piece they'll treasure.
• Family or very close friends: ₹5,000 and above — or pool together with others for one premium gift.

What makes a good wedding gift

• Useful from day one — serveware, drinkware and storage get used every week.
• Made to last — brass and copper only get better with age and care.
• Easy to place — avoid anything too personal in taste, like clothing or bold art.
• Beautifully presented — a wrapped gift with a handwritten note stands out on a table full of envelopes.
