With so much money spent on the wedding ceremony and the reception, this can often be an aspect of the ceremony that you can have a hard time in deciding upon because it can be difficult to find inexpensive, original and thoughtful items that will be good enough to express your appreciation to your wedding party.

Here are some great and unique gift ideas that are not expensive: · Personalized shot glasses: These are big hit with college fraternity brothers and sorority sisters · Personalized candles: A thoughtful gift that's especially popular with bridesmaids · Personally engraved items such as ornaments, plaques etc.: Always unique and surprisingly affordable. Match yours to the theme of the wedding. · Personalized musical CD recordings commemorating the ceremony and reception music such as bride and groom’s songs etc: For the musicphiles, there's nothing better. Just make sure there's a good variety of music on the CD. Not everyone wants 90 minutes of rap, hip hop or country. · Specially labeled wine bottles commemorating your special day: A VERY popular gift item, especially at more formal weddings. · A personalized picture frame of the wedding of the wedding party: If everyone in the party is acquainted with each other, why not give them a keepsake they'll always treasure? · Make your own wine and give a bottle to each guest: This one is really cool, and catching on fast with the Gen-Xers. A truly one-of-a-kind gift idea. · Make beaded bracelets with you and your couples initials on them and the date of your wedding: If budget is the main concern, nothing beats these personalized bracelets for your wedding party.
