  • Need advice

     You know that wedding I am going to later this month-- the one I can't shut up about.  Now I need to find a present.  This is for a couple in their 40s, no registry.  They are artistic, earthy, sophisticated....I'm going to assume they don't really need any of the normal house hold stuff.  AND I need to fly with it.  What to get? 

    Ideas????  help!

  • What's your budget? Maybe focus on something that they can do together.

    You could always do a gift certificate to a spa/spa-finder (couples spa treatment/massage), if you know what airline they fly a gift certificate to Southwest for example (doesn't hav eot be a whole ticket, just something to help towards a ticket).

    If they're sophisticated a nice bottle of wine and 2 wine glasses, or a bottle of wine and a wine accessory from Williams Sonoma (aerator, stopper, etc).

    If there are some cool museums in their area look online for a year membership, usually not more than about $45 for a family membership. Usually. Pair that with a nice music CD (I love this album/title song!  http://www.amazon.com/The-Devils-Beauties-Dompierre/dp/B000QNVPJQ)

    Gift card to a nice local restaurant (check yelp), paired with a foodie gadget.

    Hope this helps.

  • If you're flying and they are grown and don't need household stuff - cash is king. Or a gift certificate/gift card. One and done. lol

  • @Saferia - @beryberygood - Thanks!  Awesome advise.  I just got them a membership to the Columbus Art Museum.  This is something I would totally love, so I feel happy giving it to them.  A yearlong present of good dates for only $60, plus.... SUPER portable.  You guys rock!
