Landing on a gift idea is a tricky task at the best of times, let alone one for the milestone that is a wedding – with not just one, but two important recipients to consider.

In this scenario, a foolproof formula is to ensure your gift aligns with the newlyweds' interests and passion – they are sure to appreciate your thoughtfulness. Below, find Vogue Scandinavia's definitive curated guide of 50 gifts the wedded couple will cherish for years to come.
Interior fanatics
Gifting someone an interiors can feel risky, given you may not know their exact personal taste. But, we beg to differ. There are some items that every household need and one simply cannot go wrong with. Take, for example, towels to the guest bathroom or a brass candle holder. If you are not to familiar with the couples' interiors style or colour palette, opt for classic pieces in neutral shades.
Honeymoon essentials
Planning a wedding is time consuming, exhausting, and always bound to be costly. Most couples, therefore, do not prioritise investing a lot on pieces for their upcoming honeymoon. That is why gifting something luxurious for the newlyweds to bring abroad is perfect. A travel journal, for example, is personal and thoughtful, and something they will cherish it forever.
Top chefs
We all know them: the so called top chef. Whilst one is very grateful to be invited to a dinner party of their homemade dishes, prepare to smile and nod through all the in depth, nerdy talk about each product and ingredient utilised. If the newlyweds in question are such food enthusiasts, you should be safe investing in something for their kitchen, be it a dish from Le Creuset or mixer from Smeg.
Sporty spice
The active couple. If they're not on the move, they're likely in the midst of planning their next getaway or enjoying some outdoor activity in the local area. Whilst adventures couples might seem like people that don't care too much about life's luxuries, you should keep in mind that they are probably the most picky people as they never stop in their hunt for the perfect items to bring on their trips. A tent that for two: even they can't admit to living without.

Down to earth
Whilst a down-to-earth couple might be difficult to purchase a gift for, as they tend to not wish for a lot of material items, everyone needs to feel at peace at home and surrounded with good energies. Therefore, gifts such as scented candles, crystals and cosy blankets are perfect. Matching bracelets with space left for engravings enables the couple to always keep their loved ones name, important date or a personal motto close to them.
