The Gift That Keeps On Giving

Here are a few gift ideas for newlyweds that aren't on their registry!

These pillows are adorable! You can even gift newlyweds with monogram pillow cases, robes or hand towels!

I love this gift idea! It could get a little pricy if you pre-pay for all of the dates... but this would be a great gift for newlyweds that are tight on money! You plan out dates for one night of every month.. the dates could be at home, out on the town, or even out of the city. You add a little note to each envelope so the couple knows exactly what you have planned for them. See more ideas featured shannonbrown.typepad.com

These are the dates I would plan if I were to do this gift idea

A cookbook with exotic recipes to spice up their marriage

A blindfold, handcuffs, and massage oils.... no note necessary

A blockbuster gift card

A map of a city near the couple with a highlighted route of great sites, museums, and restaurants the couple can stop at along the way.

Coupon to the botanical gardens and gift card to a grocery store so that the couple can pack a picnic

A gift card to the nearest bowling alley, pool hall, or laser tag

At home spa night with sea salts and bath oils

Rock climbing gift card

Tickets to a concert or play

Miniature golf gift certificate

Cookbooks and matching aprons are sweet gifts for newlyweds that enjoy being in the kitchen. For a gag gift you can get the couple humorous aprons!

If the couple likes wine or beer another fun idea is enrolling the couple into a Wine of The Month Club. 

The possibilities are endless so don't be restricted to the gift registry for gift ideas. Get creative and think of a gift that the couple can truly enjoy.. who needs another vase?
