Our Best Bridal Shower Gifts

by Editorial Team | 04.17.2018 | OUR ULTIMATE GIFT GUIDES

We've all been there: you waited too long to choose bridal shower gifts from the couple's registry and now all that's left is a set of crystal wine goblets that costs as much as your monthly car payment (side note: did they really expect anyone to buy those?).

But never fear! While having a provided list of what the couple needs in their new life together is helpful, it's totally fine to go off registry with your bridal shower gifts. In fact, many brides and grooms often say that the best wedding gifts they received were things they never thought to ask for! To help you in your search, we pooled together 12 of our favorite bridal shower gift ideas, and included options at all price points.

Custom Cutting Board

Cutting boards are practical and inexpensive, and taking the time to personalize one with the couple's name or initials will make it seem like you spent way more than you actually did.
