A personalized wedding gift reflects the thoughtfulness that you put into it and tells the couple how important they are to you. When purchasing or making a personalized gift, it doesn't matter whether it's expensive as long as you put a bit of yourself into it

Memories
-
If you are planning to make a scrapbook, a video, a slide show or a photo album for the couple, then you can get pictures, videos and memorabilia from their friends and family members. Try adding some captions to the photos, and if you are creating a slide show, make sure to set it to the couple's favorite songs from over the years.
Personalized Gift Websites
-
Personalized gifts can be found on websites such as Zazzle, Personal Creations or CafePress. These sites let you use your digital photos to create personalized gifts. For example, you can upload a picture of the couple and add it to T-shirts, pillow cases, champagne flutes, coffee mugs, or cell phone or laptop cases. This way, it will be personal and unique.

Make It Yourself
-
If you cannot find a gift, then make one yourself. If you are a skilled craftsman, build the new couple a piece of furniture. If you like to take photographs, then take a series of pictures and frame them for the bride and groom. If you know how to make candles, then make the couple a set of candles with various scents. If you know how to throw pots, then make them a pottery set. If you can write poetry, then write a few poems on a high-quality piece of parchment and bind it in a book for them. If you can write songs, then create a song about the newlyweds.
Jewelry
-
If the couple like jewelry, then you can give them a piece of personalized jewelry. Get them a set of matching necklaces, watches or bracelets that are engraved with a message on the back. If you'd like to personalize it even more, you can have each of their birthstones put into the piece of jewelry, too.
