8 Wedding Gift Experiences for Newlyweds

We all know the type – that couple who’ve lived together for years with a fully furnished apartment and fur baby to boot. A state-of-the-art coffee machine takes pride of place on their counter, and they do couples yoga in matching Lululemon every Saturday morning. They’ve been together so long you refer to them as a singular entity, and when it comes to tying the knot, they’re doing it more as an excuse to party with their friends than for any official ‘unification’.

So, what to get these people-who-have-everything? You certainly can’t rock up empty handed, but when their kitchen is already stocked with the full set of Le Creuset serving dishes and stainless steel pots, gifting thoughtfully (and creatively) is required.

Oh, is this our cue? Here are eight original experience-based gifts they’re bound to love.

The Classics (because if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.)

Cooking Classes

You can’t go wrong with some culinary experimentation, and who knows, they might just come away with a new weeknight recipe to switch up their usual go-to’s. Perfect to keep things interesting for the couple who have their routine down pat.

Glamping

For the more outdoorsy types (or when one half loves the outdoors and the other… doesn’t), this is the perfect chance to give your favourite couple a romantic five-star experience under the stars. Fun, ambient and relaxing, a glamping getaway means they can enjoy their time together immersed in nature without the fuss of pitching tents and stuffing a sleeping bag back in its case (aka, our version of torture).

Spa Day

For the couple who are constantly on the go, gifting them some time to switch off and unwind might be the gift they’ll appreciate the most. With some luxurious treatments, a couple’s massage (a given) and some solid R&R, we just know they’ll be thanking you well into the future for your thoughtfulness.

For the Creatives

Kintsugi Pottery Class

If your friends are already pottery-pros, it’s time to take it to the next level with a class on the ancient Japanese art of Kintsugi. The ideal gift to challenge their repair skills, they’ll certainly be inspired to celebrate the beauty of imperfection, in their crockery and each other. While half the fun is breaking the pottery initially, the end result of their repairs will be a unique piece of art they can treasure forever. Cute.

Rug Tufting

Perfect for the design-conscious couple, a rug tufting class is a brilliant way to get their creative juices flowing, while also producing a functional piece to complement their undoubtedly stylish home. With the freedom to experiment and create one-off pieces, this popular activity might even lead to a newfound hobby.

The Truly Experimental

Aura Session

Help your friends mark the beginning of their marital bliss with an Aura photography and reading session. During this session, the couple will have the opportunity to see each other’s individual aura colours, as well as their shared aura, fostering a deeper sense of understanding and connection.

Sound Bath

A sound bath is like a massage, but for your brain. Ideal for the couple who take holistic wellness seriously (it’s a lifestyle, darl), a sound bath is sure to help your friends relax and detox from the stresses of everyday life — or wedding planning, because, let’s face it, the prep is no joke. Good for the mind, body and soul, you can’t go wrong.

Indoor Skydiving

For the thrill-seeking couple who love to say ‘yes’ to life, indoor skydiving is sure to get the adrenaline pumping and the giggles going. Because honestly, what could be funnier than seeing your partner being tossed around in a ridiculous bodysuit by a 120 mph airstream while they pretend they’re jumping out of a plane?
