Choosing a Bridal Shower Gift

Guests face a dilemma when choosing a bridal shower gift - should they select a shower gift from the wedding registry or pick out a unique gift of their own choosing?

A gift from the wedding registry will be sure to please the bride, because it is something that she has already selected. But a unique gift will be remembered and associated with the giver long after the wedding is over.

Tastes differ, so don't choose the shower gift based on what you might like to have, but select a gift that you believe will please the bride.

On these gift pages, we present some unique gifts that will not appear on a standard registry.  

We also include some traditional bridal shower gifts, some personal gifts for the maids, the hostess and for the groomsmen.


Our eBook has plenty of shower gift ideas also - and ideas for favors and game prizes too!

The complete kit includes a 3.5" x 10.5" large unity vase, two 4" x 8" pouring vases, 2 pounds of white sand, 2 pounds of silver sand, instructions and ceremony ideas.

Do you have something
important
to say
to someone you love?

 

If so, we would like to recommend Allen Jesson to you. He specializes in writing heartfelt and inspirational poems for every occasion and circumstance. These special, personal poems are ideally suited to celebrate special occasions such as weddings, birthdays or anniversaries. A gift of poetry also makes a wonderful thank you gift for your parents.

By working with Allen, you can create the only gift in the world where you get to express your innermost thoughts and feelings. Every poem is unique and written especially for your personal situation. Creating your poetry gift is an interactive process. You simply tell Allen what you would like to say and he converts those thoughts and feelings into verse. Every poem is written 'from scratch', and you work through the drafts until you are totally satisfied. The final draft is then professionally presented. Several gift presentations are offered.

Your gift will be unique and something that will be treasured for all of time by those loved enough to receive such a memorable keepsake. Share your feelings with a gift of poetry. A gift to inspire the heart and touch the soul.

Poems can help you say, "I love you", "I'm sorry", "Thank you", "I miss you", "I'm proud of you", "Well done" or "Goodbye." Poetry can honor someone's passing, inspire a child or welcome a new member to the family.

There are so many reasons when A Gift Of Poetry will help you express your thoughts to those that you love:

  • Birthdays
  • Weddings (toasts, vows, speeches, remembrances of missed loved ones, etc.)
  • Bridal showers (a verse from each guest to the bride-to-be, or a poem of thanks to the hostess.)
  • Anniversaries
  • Valentine's Day
  • Births
  • Christmas or Hanukkah gifts and remembrances

Each poetry package includes free inclusions, such as a frame for the poem or a poetry book, etc.
