You know the couple – the ones who don’t really need any of the typical registry type gifts. They’ve got it all, and a trip into the Macy’s home department just doesn’t quite feel right. When a set of pots and pans just won’t do, go with something that’s personalized, experiential or commemorative.
1. Monogrammed Items – Even if they’ve got all they need in terms of household items, the new Mr. & Mrs. likely won’t have anything that marks the name they now share.

Mark and Graham Turkish Towel Set ($55)

Red Envelope Mr. & Mrs. Pillowcase ($30)
2. Lessons – Experience gifts are always a great choice for the couple that doesn’t need all the ‘stuff’. Consider cooking lessons, a wine tasting or trapeze class.
3. Commemorative Frame – After the wedding, the newlyweds will have a bunch of new photographs to decorate their home. Help them commemorate their wedding day with one of these unique frame choices. The Vera Wang frame leaves room for a wedding photo alongside their invitation. I also love this Etsy frame, which holds a 5×7 photograph and is surrounded by the lyrics of the song from their first dance.
