Wedding gift ideas for people who love interior design
It seems that wedding season is here - and it’s Busy (yes, with a capital B!). Postponed pandemic weddings have come crashing into weddings already scheduled for 2022 and beyond so it looks like we’re all getting our glad rags on getting stuck into celebrating love in all its glory (at last!).
It’s easy to get excited about the big day - but if your lovebirds already live in a stunning home and have excellent taste in design, you might be getting worried about what the heck to buy them as a gift.
Don’t worry - I’ve got my KVIST Boutique hat on today while I write this blog (well, it is a wedding!), so come this way so I can help you choose the perfect wedding or anniversary gift for people with stylish homes and incredibly good design taste!
Thoughtful wedding gifts
Do not! This season’s brides and grooms have been through enough already waiting on their big day (or hoping with all their might it will go ahead), so now is not the time to scrimp on the last remaining napkin rings lurking at the bottom of their wedding registry list.
Don’t forget that your gift goes a long way to showing just how important these lovely people are to you. If you’re looking for a meaningful wedding present - and there’s nothing left on the wedding registry - you don’t have to go for what’s left behind by everybody else.
Take some inspiration from these ideas…
Art ideas for wedding gifts
There’s no such thing as too much art! Don’t worry, I’m not suggesting buying the latest Banksy. It doesn’t have to cost a fortune to be tasteful or stylish these days.
If you don’t want the stress of selecting a piece by yourself, why not join forces with some of the other wedding guests and buy a piece by committee? That way the final decision doesn’t just rest on you (nor the price tag!).
If you’re still not sure you can buy vouchers for the newlyweds' local, or favourite, art gallery so they can take their time and choose something really special

Thoughtful tableware as wedding presents
Beautiful tableware is always a winner, no matter how many sets they already have. You don’t have to buy a whole dinner service, an unusual piece to complement what they already have is a lovely gift idea and will be very appreciated.
Think back to the last time you were round for dinner and think about what pieces would make an excellent addition to the table they laid. Beautiful glasses are always necessary (especially if the dinner parties get raucous), and practical, but lovely cheese knives or espresso cups might be just the thing they’re missing.

Bespoke wedding gifts
Personalised options are always popular for wedding gift ideas, but there are so many options it can be overwhelming not to mention risky as the emphasis isn’t always on the quality of the products.
At KVIST Boutique, we have the facility to offer customisation - or a full commission - option to make your wedding gift truly bespoke.
Just get in touch here - and if you’d rather give the soon-to-be-wed couple a chance to commission something, buy a KVIST Boutique gift card and they can commission something that way.
Design Classics wedding gift ideas
If your newlyweds like to stick to the classics, then you might have to go for something that has already stood the test of time. They’re classics for a reason.
The Phillipe Stark lemon squeezer looks good enough to sit proudly on any stylish worktop.
The Bialetti Espresso maker never fails to deliver on strong, classic espresso

Hand-made, beautiful wedding gift inspiration
Anybody can grab a gift from a registry, or nip into a big department store in their lunch break but there’s something to be said for buying from a craftsman or artisan maker.
At KVIST Boutique we have hundreds of stunning products that are individually made by artists and expert crafters. We stock a range of pieces that span the ideas above, plus many more unique and beautifully designed items that will make a wonderful wedding or anniversary gift.
Browse the range and choose something beautiful from our virtual shelves, or choose a gift card option so your newlyweds can select something that fits with their own decor and taste.
KVIST Boutique in real life
If you love the idea of seeing some of the KVIST Boutique products in real life - then you absolutely can! On the 30th August we’re popping up at the Westfield Shopping Centre in Shepherd’s Bush to take part in their week-long ‘I do handmade’ craft fair.
It would be so great to see you - please do come along and say hi!
