Need help for a wedding present!

[xemmax]

We're going to a wedding in a few weeks for one of OH's best friends, where Nick is best man. The wedding is in Bali so we've spent a lot of time planning the trip and buying things for it and it's only just occurred to me that we haven't got a wedding present for them.

As its been quite expensive just paying for flights etc I doubt they would be expecting much but we'd still like to get them something sentimental. The problem is what? I have never bought a wedding present before, usually just give money so I really am clueless!

Any help would be very much appreciated as we leave in 2 weeks so need to get it ordered!

Thanks in advance!

Most of the wedding presents I've bought have been from lists...except a few times I've chosen things that are personal to the actual wedding, like a print of the place...an experience for the honeymoon (massages in the hotel spa, added on trips for safari) and a couple of things relevant to hobbies.

Have you thought about buying them something in Bali that would remind them of their wedding? Balinese serving dish, with maybe a cook book? (one of our favourite dishes is Balinese fish curry, yum)

That way it's personal, will remind them of their special day...and means you could get while you are there?

These sort of things are beautiful

But I bet they have these with bells on in Bali!

Even a beautiful Balinese photo frame for a wedding shot?

It is a pin that has something old, something new on it etc and she hooked it on to her garter!! Xx
