If
your list of possible wedding gifts for your best friend
looks similar to the one above, then waste no more time
and discard it. Why? Because everybody else’s list
probably looks like it too. The
big question now is, what will you give them?
Well,
the secret to making your gift stand-out is to veer away
from standard gifts and give them something unique and personal.
Here are some unique wedding gifts you can check out:
Photo Mosaics
A photo mosaic is a large
digital photo whose “pixels” are made up of
other photos.
Why would it make a great wedding gift?

Mosaic from Mosaic Moments
Enrico Gaw, one-half
of the pioneering duo behind Mosaic
Moments, explains, “A wedding is an event
where two people become one. Their mosaic is a compilation
of their pictures, of their days together and of their
memories and experiences all laid out in one big picture
for everyone to enjoy. It is the culmination of both
their lives coming together.”
Won’t a gift
like that qualify you for the “Greatest Best
Friend in the World” award?
Customized
Wedding Song
Music
has always been considered to have the power to heighten
every mood and express feelings better than anything
else. So for their first dance as husband and wife,
isn’t it absolutely romantic if the song they
danced to is something that was made specially for them?
If you have a hidden talent for song writing, then go
ahead and write that song yourself. But if you can’t
tell the difference between a half-note and a quarter-note,
then it’s best that you leave the task to the
professionals.
Musicians,
like The
Sentimental Groove group and the people
behind the Trina Belamide Song shop are now offering
their songwriting skills to anyone that wants their
own customized song. They’ll take care of everything
from composing to recording the song so you don’t
have to worry about anything.
A customized wedding song would admittedly be more
expensive than your average wedding gift as they can
cost anywhere from PhP 12,000.00 to 30,000.00. Still,
don’t you think that’s a small price to
pay for the precious chance to give your best friend
and his/her new spouse a song they can call their
own?
If
you are one of those no-nonsense people whose number
one criterion in choosing a gift is its practicality,
then you might want to check out Ms. Kaye Catral’s
bridal towel cakes.
Made up of items like bath towels, hand cloths, wine
and flute glasses, the bridal towel cakes are as sensible
as any wedding gift can be, but don’t expect it
to come in a boring old box. What makes the bridal towel
cake unique is how it is presented. Ms. Catral, with
a distinctive artistic flair, arranges and embellishes
the items to make them look like the real thing.
Finding the perfect balance between fancy and practicality,
the towel cakes attract attention at every wedding they
grace. And isn’t that the real reason why you’re
reading this article in the first place?
