Thinking of what to give a newly wed? Since everyone is tight on the budget these days, you might as well go with a gift that is not expensive and yet has that special touch and makes a lasting impression.

Here are some wedding gift suggestions for you. I certainly wouldn't mind receiving anyone of these items for my wedding day.

After the wedding, photos would have to be displayed and this photo wall frame set from Pottery Barn is a great choice.




You can never have too many photo albums to put wedding pictures in. This one is made out of wood which I like.

I like this photo box from Personal creations. It would make a perfect topper to any pile of wedding albums.

Isn't this sweet? I would love to get a fondue set for my anniversary. Any couple should share at least one special evening a month sharing fondue.

I'm loving these "cute couple" on pillows and mugs from Boldloft. They're not just decorative, they're very functional too!

These flute champagne glasses from BlueChopSticks are so perfect wedding gift. Who wouldn't want to drink champagne with someone you love?
