Start with the registry and your budget. It tells you what the couple has chosen and helps avoid duplicates. If you are buying outside it, ask about an interest or practical need.
For the home
Check dimensions and preferences before choosing bedding, lamps or wall art. For pillowcases, ask about the pillow size and read the exact listing for cover quantity and printed designs.
For time together
Offer an outing they can schedule themselves, or agree on dates before booking. Check any restrictions and expiry dates on tickets or vouchers. A trip requires more coordination than a meal.
For a couple who travels
Choose from their wish list or ask about equipment they need. Confirm dimensions and what they already own before buying luggage or accessories.
For a personal addition
Choose a photo from a shared memory and add a caption or date. Include a card with a message specific to the couple. If you give a pillowcase set, name the designs and sizes in the note.
Before sending
Confirm the delivery address, especially around a move or wedding trip. Leave time for any printing and shipping, and keep the order details in case the couple needs help with the gift.
