Employees, while full-time working people that you likely only see at the office, are still humans. They’re living full lives, meeting people, and getting married!
As their employer or manager, your recognition and appreciation can go a long way in ingratiating the company with them – particularly when congratulating them on personal achievements like weddings.
Not sure where to start? Don’t worry! Use this guide to choose the best wedding gift for employees. From charity donations to spa vouchers, these gifts are appropriate, thoughtful, and perfect for a new start.
Top 19 Wedding Gifts For Employees
Before you pick a wedding gift for your employees, make sure you consider their cultural and religious backgrounds as well as their personal preferences. For example, a wine gift basket sounds wonderful, but it isn’t the right option for every employee as some employees may not drink alcohol.
So make sure that the gifts you choose suit your employee’s lifestyle. Use this list as a guide and adjust your gift ideas to suit the couple so that you can give them something that they will love.
1. Charitable Donation
What better way to start a lifetime together than by having a good deed done in your name? It’s a heartwarming wedding gift and a great way to kickstart a happy and giving wedding atmosphere.
Make a donation in your employee's name. Don’t hesitate to ask them if there is a charity near and dear to their heart.
2. Flower Bouquet
Is any wedding complete without a congratulatory flower bouquet? We don’t think so! Present your employee with a bouquet at the office. Don’t hesitate to go all out. Make the bouquet large and spectacular.
If you feel like upping the bouquet’s value, tuck a heartful employee appreciation letter between the flowers. The letter will show them just how much you care about them and help you cash in on the powerful benefits of employee appreciation and recognition.
3. Honeymoon Contribution
As great and life-changing as weddings are, they are also great financial commitments – especially when you factor in the cost of a honeymoon. Sometimes, the best wedding gift is as straightforward as offering a financial helping hand.
So, either gift your employee money for their honeymoon or offer to pay for a honeymoon event. If they’ve already covered all expenses, offer an all-expenses paid date at their travel destination or when they return.
4. High-quality Dish Set
Starting a new life together as a married couple often includes moving into a new home and restarting your cutlery and dish collection. Or, if they have everything they need for everyday use, they might want a fancy set to break out for special occasions.
Surprise your employee with a high-quality dish set. If you’re not sure what type of dish set they’ll like, browse their registry or gift them a voucher to a homeware store.
5. Drinking Glass Set
Picture this: your employee and their partner come home from a long day of work and are aiming to spend some time together. They decide on wine and pull out the beautiful wine glasses you gifted them on their wedding day. Wine glasses they gaze on fondly.
It’s an attainable fantasy. Gift your employee a drinking set of fancy glasses, like wine glasses, champagne flutes, or whisky tumblers. If you’re feeling extra generous, have their initials engraved on the glasses.
Even if your employee and their partner don't drink alcohol, a set of beautiful drinking glasses, like tumblers, will still be appreciated.
6. Matching Cookware
Is there anything that screams newlyweds quite like new cookware?
Cookware – especially matching cookware – is a must-have for any newlywed couple. Use the wedding registry to find the right cookware set for your employees. Or, if you don’t have access to a registry, opt for a generous homeware store voucher.
7. Home Decor
Weddings are the perfect opportunity for newlyweds to spruce up their homes, provided attendees gift them home decor. Again, if you have access to your employee's registry, you can purchase items they’ve already set aside. If not, a voucher or a unique, surprise item is sure to be appreciated.
8. House Plant
New beginnings and plants make a great combo. To symbolize the beginning of the new couple's future and the growth of their relationship, gift your employee a house plant. You can opt for a full-grown plant or a sapling. However, a sapling will have added value because the new couple will get to watch it grow.
9. Picture Frame
To commemorate the wedding, buy a gorgeous picture frame. It’s a thoughtful gift, as the couple can use the picture frame to display their wedding day photos.
A high-quality frame is a must, though. If you have the budget, get a bigger frame, one for a blown-up wedding photo they can hang in their living room or bedroom.
10. Tea Set
Tea is delicious and is a popular afternoon pastime for people all around the world. If you know your employee is into tea, buy them a new matching tea set. If you’ve got the budget, add a teapot or loose-leaf tea to the set.
11. Charcuterie Board
Charcuterie boards, bite-sized helpings of delicious cheese, crackers, and assorted meats, are all the rage. But the charcuterie board itself, which is most often made of wood, can be a bit expensive if you’re already planning a wedding – which is where your company wedding gift comes in.
Gift your employee a charcuterie board. Make it extra special through customization, like having their initials branded into the handle.
12. Wine Gift Set
Wine is an elegant and timeless gift, especially for weddings. So, if your employee drinks alcohol, gift them a high-quality wine gift set. These gift sets usually include a bottle or two of aged wine and limited edition wine glasses.
13. Gourmet Snacks
Snacks are a fitting gift for almost any occasion. But to up the ante for a wedding, opt for gourmet snacks. Whether it be indulgent chocolates, custom popcorn, candy spreads, or something a little more savory like a meat sample platter, splurge a little to make the snacks match the occasion.
14. Scented Candles
Scented candles are a timeless romantic gift, especially for newlyweds. So, gift your employee a set of luxury candles to brighten their home.
15. Food Delivery Coupon
Nobody wants to cook after a honeymoon, but your newlyweds can’t go without dinner. Tide your employee over when they return from their honeymoon with a generous food delivery coupon.
16. Custom Catchall Tray
From keys to fruits to receipts, a catchall tray is a key part of any married couple's home. Gift your employee a catchall tray and make it extra special with a custom design. A great option is the couple's initials. They'll be reminded of the company and their wedding every time they see the tray.
17. Spa Voucher
As fun as weddings are, the months of planning and the wedding day itself can be a very stressful endeavor.
Help your employee and their partner relax with a spa voucher. Your employee is sure to appreciate the chance to get rid of some tension after the wedding.
18. Couple Coffee Cups
Make every morning special with a couple's coffee set. Create a custom couple design and have the couple's names or initials put on the cups. Or, go for the classic ‘husband’ and ‘wife’ pair. Remember to adjust this accordingly for same-sex couples.
19. Gift Card
It’s been proven time and time again: employees like choosing their own gifts. It makes sense. Everyone has their own unique taste.
The same rule applies to your employees. If you’re part of a large company, didn’t have the time to find a gift, or just don’t know the employee that well, opt for a gift card. PerkUp gift cards are perfect. Choose from dozens of retailers, easily add money and a personal message, and collect any unused funds.
Conclusion
Weddings are joyous occasions and great for gift-giving. Celebrating your employee's wedding will show them how much you appreciate and value them.
If you’re not sure what gift to give, browse the above list. All these gifts are appropriate for weddings and thoughtful. But don’t forget to customize the gift items where possible. That’s what will make the gift truly special.
