When to Give Gifts to Your Wedding Party, Family and Each Other


When to Give Gifts to Your Wedding Party, Family and Each Other

Here’s everyone who should receive a gift and when to give them.
Giving thoughtful gifts to your wedding party and important loved ones, like your parents, is the best way to thank them for being key players in your wedding—and in life. But when do you actually hand them out? While there are no strict rules when it comes to the timing of gift giving, here’s a breakdown of when most couples traditionally choose to present each person with something special.

Spouse

Many couples like to exchange gifts on their wedding day. If you’re doing a first look, you might take this quiet, intimate moment together to share gifts. If the first time you’ll see one another is at the ceremony, ask someone in your wedding party to facilitate the gift swap. But if you prefer to exchange gifts the night before your “I dos,” that works too. Whenever you decide to do it, talk with your soon-to-be spouse in advance so you're both prepared.

Parents

Take a moment before the wedding—it could be a special meal a few days before, at the rehearsal dinner (often after your toast thanking them) or on the morning of your wedding—to share some private time with your parents and give them their gifts. You could each give your own parents a gift, or you might give one present from both of you to each set of parents.

Wedding Party

You can present gifts to your wedding party at the rehearsal dinner or the day of your wedding, either at brunch or lunch, or while getting ready together. You could also have a separate meal, like a fun bridal brunch or dinner, a few days before the wedding and do it then. If you’re already exchanging gifts with your almost-spouse and parents in the hours leading up to your ceremony and feel overwhelmed, the rehearsal dinner is a good idea.
When you decide to give your bridesmaid and groomsmen gifts might also depend on what you give them. If it’s something you want them to wear during the wedding day—like jewelry, getting-ready robes, cuff links or customized sneakers to slip into at the party—present them while you’re getting ready. That way no one risks losing it or forgetting it in their hotel room. If it’s not something they’re meant to wear or have at the wedding—a gift card, beauty products, picture frame or wine paraphernalia—hand it out at the rehearsal dinner so they don’t need to worry about keeping track of it throughout the busy wedding day.

Young Attendants

It’s common to give your flower girl and ring bearer gifts at the rehearsal dinner, but again, this might depend on how old they are and what you have for them. It’s always fun for your little attendants to have something to do at long events like the rehearsal dinner and reception, so games, toys, crafts, books and other gifts of this nature will keep them busy and happy throughout. But if you’re gifting them with cute getting-ready or reception swag, like a bag, jewelry or flower-girl- or ring-bearer-themed T-shirt, hand them out the day of the wedding for convenience.

Other Important People

There are probably other important individuals who aren’t in your immediate family or wedding party whom you want to thank and honor with a sweet token. This could include your grandparents, officiant or any loved ones doing readings, ushering or playing music at the ceremony. These special people can receive gifts at the rehearsal dinner or the morning of your wedding.

Psychology of giving gift

Psychology of giving gift Gift giving has long been a favorite subject for studies on human behavior, with psychologists , anthropologists, economists and marketers all weighing in. They have found that giving gifts is a surprisingly complex and important part of human interaction, helping to define relationships and strengthen bonds with family and friends. Indeed, psychologists say it is often the giver, rather than the recipient, who reaps the biggest psychological gains from a gift. Frustrated by crowds, traffic and commercialism, people can be tempted at this time of year to opt out of gift giving altogether. A 2005 survey showed that four out of five Americans think the holidays are too materialistic, according to the Center for a New American Dream, which promotes responsible consumption. But while it’s reasonable to cut back on spending during the holidays, psychologists say that banning the gift exchange with loved ones is not the best solution. People who ref...

Tenant Who Didn’t Leave

  Story taken from: https://asiaghosts.com/ & https://asiaghosts.com/tenant-who-didnt-leave/ After I left my job as an Assistant Professor from Nanyang Technological University, I decided to set up a small company in CBD area. And I chose an office with a magnificent view on 37th floor at International Plaza, Tanjong Pagar. It was considered as a small sized office with merely 1500sq.ft. However it fits my business strategy as a start-up of a freelance IT consultant firm with manpower of about six. The rental is quite affordable too, well below the market-rate. I particularly like the furnishing that is so posh – cherry and walnut wood made of European style fittings. It has its unique class of elegance in contrast of metal-and-glass modern design. The view is magnificent too. You can see most of the landmark buildings in Singapore, such as UOB towers, SIA building, DBS, Maybank and Capital Tower from the height of 37 storey. You may wonder why I tried to describe the office ...
