Silly Wedding Gifts
There are a lot of choices when it comes to wedding gifts, but if you don't want to give the traditional toaster or kettle, consider giving a silly wedding gift. A silly wedding gift should be distinct from other gifts, all while giving the married couple something to giggle about. You can make the present at home, shop in a gag store or even perform a silly song as a congratulatory gift to the newlyweds.

Give homemade silly gifts for a more personal touch. Make a funny wedding video that includes friends and family giving congratulatory messages in a humorous light. If you're an artist, consider a caricature of the couple and present it during the reception.
Gifts That Can Be Performed
-
Since most wedding gifts are handed to the bride and groom, consider giving gifts that can't be wrapped, such as composing a silly song for the wedding day. Get the entire wedding party in on the act and belt out a funny but well-meaning tune for the couple and invited guests. A short, humorous sketch of the couple will also be a way to congratulate the newlyweds.

Traditional Gifts with an Edge
-
Traditional wedding gifts include toaster ovens and sets of pots and pans. Throw away tradition and give silly gifts, such as gag kitchen gadgets or "Mr." and "Mrs." embroidered towels or pillow cases.
What to Avoid
-
When giving silly gifts to the bride and groom, make sure to always keep the gift tactful. Adult-themed and toilet-humor gifts can raise eyebrows and offend people, so always make sure the gift is appropriate for the occasion as well as for the people receiving it.
