Weddings are full of long-standing traditions but part of personalizing your own wedding day and making it uniquely yours is deciding which traditions you love and would like to incorporate in your one-of-a-kind celebration, as well as which ones you’d rather skip or remake into something that really speaks to your relationship. Exchanging gifts with your significant other on the wedding day is a sweet tradition that will never go out of style. There’s nothing quite like a handwritten note expressing your feelings or a personalized present to let one another know how much you’re loved. Read on for the best wedding gifts for the bride.
Perfume
Scent has the power to evoke memories and emotions that come with them. That’s why we love the idea of the bride wearing a new perfume on the wedding day that will bring her back to the perfect day whenever she catches the fragrance thereafter.

Jewelry
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend, right after her groom, of course. Opt for an elegant, timeless piece of jewelry to wear on the wedding or really, any day after.

Second Wedding Band
Many brides like the idea of wearing two wedding rings around their engagement ring for symmetry. The symbolism of the engagement ring being sealed in with two bands is touching. Not to mention, the stacked wedding ring look has been around for quite some time.

Initial Necklace
What girl doesn’t love a chic, delicate pendant necklace showcasing her new initials? Fine signature jewelry that’s all your own, like this are sure to become a staple piece.

Bridal Denim Jacket
What better way to show off your new last name than with classic white embroidery and a calligraphy-inspired font. Every bride wants a unique wedding day ensemble without outshining the stunning white gown, a personalized denim jacket helps achieve just that. Pop it on for the reception and for a few fun photos.

Jewelry Dish
We know you’ll never want to take off your engagement and wedding ring after you tie the knot but at times its necessary to help keep them safe. Have a lovely ring dish to store your rings and any jewelry you use regularly!
Love Letter
Handwritten love notes will always be the most impactful and treasured gift to receive especially on the morning of your wedding. Show your sentimental side on paper before walking down the aisle and vowing to forever.
Personalized Keepsake Box
Present a handcrafted wooden box personalized with your names or message engraved on the top. Tuck a small surprise inside for an added gift.
