If your friend and his/partner are involved with an NGO or a charity organisation, be a part of their good work as a gift. Donate, spend time or get involved with the less fortunate souls and bring some smiles. This couple, Sagar and Richi Vishnoi invited 150 underprivileged kids from the NGO called Bucketlist for their wedding as guests, and they testify that nothing felt better.

Choosing a wedding gift is all about making the person you love feel special. Think of wedding gift ideas putting your feet in your friend's shoes. Understand what they love and what would touch their hearts. It's always the thought that counts.

Put some thinking and efforts before you finalise the right kind of wedding gift. And if you can't come up with anything extraordinary, sharing the wedding expenses or sponsoring for their honeymoon trip are always great ideas. You could also go for shopping coupons or movie and theatre coupons depending on their preference. Make sure to gift your friend something that comes from your heart!
