Wedding present ideas?

[hissho]

Hi all
got a wealthy friend whose only son will get married. i've been racking my head as what present i should buy...
it has to be of class and taste and uniqueness but not necessarily expensive. No big brands like LV, Chanel etc as they've already got too many...
my budget is not more than A$2000
any suggestions?

thanks a lot

Grab something from the local craft markets, can be cheap but as long as it's unique! Spend the rest on yourself.

We needed, toasters, irons, saucepans etc.

We got dozens of crystal glasses, silver serving trays and fancy stuff we never use. (It's still all in boxes 23 years later )

They might need something useful.

You meant a wealthy client, right. Save your money, clients dont last.
(maybe give him a discount off his next bill!).

the only presents i give now are gift cards & booze.
as most couples I know getting married have lived together for a while and have most things.

I find gift cards to a major retailer is the way to go.

High-end French cookware like Le Crueset and a couple of classic cookbooks (not the food stylists' pipedream). I'm still regularly using my Le Crueset many years later, and even inherited a 40-year-old roaster that I love. Sign the cookbooks.

I did a photobook signed by all friends....but that if they got time to do photos

Check out the Perth Mint website. They usually have a wedding set of coins at a reasonable price, it also has a plaque that can be engraved with the couples names etc.
