A marriage itself is the ultimate display of love, but many grooms also like to surprise their bride with a personal gift on or around their wedding day.

Some choose the wedding day itself to present this special item, while others prefer to wait until the wedding night, or some opt for a romantic moment during the honeymoon. Here are a few ideas you might like to consider when choosing a gift for your new bride.

1. Jewellery

There are not many brides who would turn their nose up at jewellery. A beautiful pair of pearl or diamond earrings, or a pretty necklace, makes the perfect gift. If you give this present in advance, your bride may choose to wear her new jewellery at the wedding ceremony itself.

Alternatively, you could surprise her after you are wed. Having a bracelet or pendant engraved with a personal message is a thoughtful touch.

2. A handmade item

Nothing says ‘I love you’ quite like a handmade gift that you have put a lot of thought and time into creating. A love letter, a piece of artwork or a photo book you’ve put together yourself are all touching gifts your new bride will love.
