Ideas for Festival Gift Registry…

In India, we have never ending line-up of festivals. It is our love for celebrating every festival with gusto extraordinaire that has earned us the tag – ‘land of festivals’.  From Diwali to Christmas, Holi to Eid! Our festival celebrations are pompous, loud and full of colour, splendour and gaiety. And, one common thread amidst all festivals is sharing of gifts as a token of love and appreciation. There’s nothing we love more than finding the perfect gift for the ones we love. Making a list of people in your life and the present to give them is a daunting task. Additionally, you can achieve it by keeping in mind the holy quadrant of festival gifting rules.

Rules of gifting

The foremost rule of gifting is – do not overspend your budget. Don’t feel the pressure to buy expensive gifts. Gifts are a symbol of love and gratitude and not about the amount of money you have. There are ranges of affordable and awesome gifts available and you are bound to find something to please everyone’s festival wishlist or festival gift registry.

You may not always know what to gift, be on the lookout for gift ideas by scrolling through in your loved one’s wishlist. Gift them what they like, and if they don’t have a wishlist you can simply ask them. Especially when you are buying a gift for children, the best thing is to simply ask them what they want for the occasion. Kids are vocal about their likings and it won’t be difficult to know what they want.

Spend time too and not just money

Your festival gift shopping is not going to be completed in a day after all your gift list consists of everyone from your mother in law to that sweet smiling milkman. If you don’t plan ahead and allot time for festive shopping, you will end up buying some meaningless, rushed and over pricey gift.

Festivals have an aura of all-around cheer about them, and you can spread that cheer by making the gift fun. Try to find a quirky gift that is bound to cheer up the recipient. Another way to make it happen is by gifting something handmade. Also, most people are happy by the efforts and thought that goes into making the handmade gift.

This festival season bring a smile on many faces of your near and dear ones by keeping things simple and getting friends and family gifts they love. Furthermore, you can also explore the exciting boards on Zwishy and add them to your Festival Gift Registry.

Housewarming Gift Registry

At last, after saving and scrapping for years you managed to buy one of those swanky digs that you have always dreamed of. Now the only thing left to make your happiness complete is to throw an equally swanky housewarming party. But before you invite your family and friends to celebrate your newly bought happiness you need to seriously consider creating a housewarming gift registry.

The pro of signing up for a housewarming wishlist is that your guests do not spend money on items that you don’t particularly want or need. The only con of having a housewarming gift registry is that some might consider it rude. But to be frank it is way more preferable than having your guests play guessing game.  And, guess what items will and will not clash with your interiors. In fact, housewarming gift registries are fastest growing non-traditional event gift registry and are generally lauded both by the hosts and the guests. However, this not being a standard gift registry. So, do not include it in your invitation and the registry information should be given only to those who ask.

Creating a housewarming gift registry

Creating a housewarming gift registry is tricky because you are not going to be the only person residing in your happy abode. After all, it is the seamless merging of different personality traits that turns a house into a home. I have usually heard husbands joking that they do not have much say in deciding house interiors or in deciding the registry. With Zwishy you can collaborate with your partner and have and all inclusive gift registry.

At Zwishy you have an easy way to help you prepare your housewarming gift registry.  One of the hosts needs to create a housewarming wishlist and then add your partner as a collaborator. Each of the partners can then add their own choices of gifts they would like to receive to the wishlist. Hence you have one common gift registry without having long sessions of asking your partner his/her preferences. This way your home can be what it should be  – a bit of both of personalities.

Browse through Zwishy’s curated gift lists and build you own wishlist!

Wishlist – Why we should not feel guilty…

We have all been through this – yet another gifting occasion and no place to start. It’s so frustrating to look at many stores, online and offline and still end up with the same old gift ideas. And most of the gifts are not very useful to the receiver. All the money and good wishes go down the drain when nobody uses it. Wishlists were invented to end this nightmare. Majority of the guests like registries for a simple reason – it takes zero time investment from them to fetch a perfect gift. Yet, we feel so guilty about making a wishlist and sending it over.

What stops us from making a wishlist?

How to put big-ticket items on the wishlist?

Children can ask Santa for whatever they like. They are kids and nobody minds even if they say they want to go to Finland. If adults put up a wishlist that says they need a gift to holiday in Greece, people may think they are greedy. Will they? Well, it is just a misconception. All the guests can save money otherwise waste on bouquets and make a cash fund contribution through the wishlist app. The cash pool works towards materialising an expensive wish and nobody has to bear the burden. So ideal and so possible.

How to say I want a gift?

Very often, we feel that sending a wishlist to friends is like asking for gifts blatantly. It is more classy to say, ‘No thanks, it is not about gifts. We just want your presence’. While nobody disagrees with that, we know close friends and relatives never come empty-handed. So, let’s get a little more practical and be frank if we have to. It is better than cursing them for getting gifts you never wanted. And, it is also a sheer waste of money. The world is moving towards a more practical approach to gifting with wishlists and people who shy away will be left behind with junk gifts. So say it and say it aloud – I want a gift from my wishlist. People will see the forward thinker you are.

Why make an open wishlist when you can say it discreetly?

Wishlists are a convenient way of getting the presents that you want. It also saves a lot of time spent by the relatives in order to hunt for an appropriate gift for you. Wishlists also make it easier to coordinate the products so that you don’t end up with the same product twice. Since wishlists can be seen online, there is no location barrier and your friends from far away can easily send you a gift based on your wishlist and vice versa. It also saves you the trouble of answering the calls regarding ‘what do you want?’ and then remembering what item you asked for.

So if you have a guilt stemming from thoughts like – ‘Am I looking greedy?’, ‘Isn’t this way too expensive for a simple item?’, ‘Do I really need this right now?’, ‘Does this fit the budget of my guests?’ etc, then stop worrying. Guests prefer the registries. The wishlist helps them in understanding the receiver’s taste better. It also helps a group of friends to purchase an expensive item by pitching in money together. Many friends like to do that as opposed to buying individual inexpensive gifts.

All in all, a wishlist is an ideal way of sorting your gift preferences at one place. It makes the gift selection process easier for your guests. It is a win-win!

This gown decorated with Rhinestones or other sparklers, chamki, mirror work or bead work would also be striking.  

In the last few years backless wedding gowns have taken the world by storm, a deep ‘V ‘cut or a low ‘U’ with, with long lace gloves would have a dramatic effect. Off-shoulder gowns or strapless are very appealing as well. These have a charm as well as vivacity all their own.

Woollens

There is nothing as sweet as tiny little feet. Babies are prone to cold and the best way to keep them toasty is to wrap them up like a cinnamon roll. Buy a set of woollens for baby, complete with tiny muffler, socks, mittens, sweater, cap, and booties. This will keep the babies warm and healthy.

Sleepsuits

A newborn baby spends a majority of its time sleeping. Thank god for the little mercies. But you still need to constantly care for them. So make sure that you have at least half a dozen pair of night suits.

Bathing Gear

A lot of care is required while bathing a baby. You need a small easy to clean hard plastic bathtub, bath towels, gentle baby wash and shampoo, oil for massaging the baby, baby cream and most importantly a plastic ducky.

Personalised Bedtime Gear

A peaceful sleep is essential for a healthy growth of the baby. So make sure to buy good quality baby mattress/bed, bedsheets, baby blanket, mosquito net. You can also easily get it customized and add a personal touch.

Feeding Gear

Meal times with a baby can be very difficult. Make sure you have stock of enough formula powder if you are not breastfeeding. Another good thing to have if you are breastfeeding is a nursing cover. Hence, Make sure the material cover is light and breathable.

Hygiene Gear

With babies, hygiene is directly connected with their health. So, you need to maintain hygiene around the newborn. Also, the essentials are baby nail clippers, hand sanitizer, skincare wipes and cotton buds.

So mommies and papas to be – this is a list of items that you should keep in mind if you are shopping for baby gifts online.

Inspiring Ideas to Help You Choose Wedding Gifts for Couples

Likes can be so diverse. The wife-to-be may want to go deep sea diving and the husband-to-be may fantasize going for a lazy camping day. The lady may like funky, quirky and cool, while the man may like it simple, classy and stunning. When you have to choose wedding gifts for couples, would you favour the girl or the boy? To avoid the dilemma, one can go neutral. A gift without gender bias is good. After you do your research, send out the list to the couple or encourage them to make a wishlist. Let them agree to disagree on what they don’t want. Start here.

Interesting Wedding Gifts for Couples

The couple will be a clicking a lot of pictures in the coming days. What will happen to all those memories? They will stay in the mobile, go to the laptop or get stored in the cloud. Nobody takes the time to go through them together and re-live the beautiful moments.

Get a smartphone projector to watch all those lovely photos on the full screen, blown to 8x magnification. It is a simple DIY piece of art. Put it together without any adhesive. With a holder for your phone, the projector lets you sit back and watch your memories unfold beautifully. Grab one for the newlyweds here.

The wedding charm and all the love slowly fades away when the routine sets in. You don’t want that to happen to one more couple, right? Gift them some lovely ‘Love tokens’ from Uncommon Goods that they can exchange in their daily lives to keep the passion burning, in spite of the fast-paced life.

Know the rules for gifting couples:

– You need not always find one thing to suit both of them. It can be two things from the same family. A couple watch set or a ring set, for example.

– Since you have to gift a couple and not an individual, your budget will have to be slightly higher than usual. Consider group gifting for a better gift.

– It is okay to ask. Then, spend meaningfully on a gift. Don’t depend on surprises – they can be disappointing if your choices are vastly different.

– Also, nothing works like cash. It is old-fashioned. However, it is still practical. Let the couple splurge the way they like.

– If you know the couple very well, introduce them to the idea of making online wishlists. Thus, the giver and the receiver, both enjoy the gifting process.

However, if you want to explore more ideas, head to Zwishy wishlist app. Furthermore, wedding gifts for couples need not be tedious – there are plenty of curated ideas to pick and gift in no time.

The dilemma of Engagement Gifts…

Did your best friend just got engaged? Yay, it’s time for celebrations and the first up, on the celebratory list is the engagement party. Now if it is your BFF, you will know what engagement gifts to give. But the problem arises when you don’t know the couple that well. The thing with the gifts is that they are never obligatory. In fact, even the couples do not expect you to make a major purchase for this event. But you can always opt for something small and meaningful.  And hence we bring to you a wishlist for engagement gifts which are not too overboard, but still, have sentimental value.

Picture Frames

They are getting engaged and will have plenty of photos to fill the frame. Buy a decorative frame or make one if you are artistic enough. In fact, there are many DIY frames making kits available in the market. You can have the fun of making a frame and the couple will appreciate the personal touch. Here’s one from Engrave – DIY TV Photo Frame – it’s is novel, retro and cool.

Books

It is rightly said that books are humans’ best friend. Even if the couple is not too much into reading, you can gift one and encourage them to read more. You can opt for anything from a love story, a poetry collection or even a wedding planning guide.

Chocolates

Everyone and I repeat everyone likes them. So, why not gift a box of sweet manna called chocolate. Celebrate togetherness with the sweetest of engagement gifts.

A planner

Keeping track of things as wedding planning begins very trying for most couples. So, gift a planner which contains everything from a checklist to budget worksheets. And help them plan the wedding smoothly and lower the normal chaos.

Vase

They are getting together forever. And it is an unwritten rule of courtship that, the to be groom has to gift flowers at regular intervals. So, gift a carrier for those beautiful flowers that beaux will bring to woo his girl. Pick Personalised Songbird Vase from Uncommon Good – it’s cute and will go with any home decor.

Flowers

I am not talking about the bouquets, they are a total waste and frankly too mainstream. Buy a potted plant that the couple can replant in their garden or in the indoor pot. It is a very symbolic gift that they will nurture together just like their relationship. My Bageecha has a wonderful collection of Adeniums that you can pick from – these are easy to maintain and have a beautiful bloom.

Ring Holder

Now this one is really obvious, and still, no one thinks of it. Gift the couple a place to store their new bling. This way they will not misplace the rings while taking them off for a shower or cooking. This cute and classy Reindeer Ring Holders by Umbra is a must have!

Custom Stationery

Do you know how many thank you cards will the couple send out by the time they get married? Well, the answer is so many that even if multiple guests will buy the same gift they will still have to buy some more. So, gift a personalized stationery with their names. Pick an elegant one from from Zwishy and customise it.

Well, we stop here, with very even 8 engagement gift ideas. And if you manage to attend 8 engagement parties and run out of ideas for the gift, write to us we will come up with some more gifting ideas just for you.

Because each year signifies something special, we have come up with unique gifts for anniversary to celebrate your journey.

Fantastic first:

Completing the first year of togetherness with your partner is perhaps even sweetest of all anniversaries. You have just spent an entire year learning new things about each other, so what could be a better gift idea than a memoir of your first year together. Make a scrapbook of your personal moment and tell your partner how they made your life better.

Terrific Two:

If sweet is the flavour of the first year, the second year is the most exciting. If you are looking for gifts for anniversary and it is your second one, go for a second honeymoon. Plan a short trip to your favourite location and relive all your special moments.

Tender Three:

Time really flies, it’s been three years and it has gone in a blink of an eye. So, why not relax and pamper your partner. Book a spa date at some ridiculously expensive resort and indulge in a full day of luxury.

Fabulous Four:

By the time the fourth year ends your relationship has truly blossomed into a beautiful flower. Signify this milestone with flowers. Also, it could be a simple bouquet of flowers or a single rose or you can gift a piece of jewellery engraved with a flower.

Fancy Five:

You have been together for half a decade!!! This calls for something fancy. So start thinking about what your partner has been thinking of buying but putting for one reason or another. Does he like some really expensive watch or was she talking about that latest Louis Vuitton bag? Think and gift.

Soulful Six:

The pressure of constantly trying to enliven your relationship has gone and now you understand each other on a spiritual level. Hence, the best gift would be to go to some yoga retreat and recharge your energies. Spend some time together hidden away from all worries of the world.

Sassy Seven:

Personally, seven is my favourite number. And it is time sass up your life. Plan a romantic date and gift the bottle of your partner’s cherished drink. What’s more, you can share the gift and loosen up spend some quality time together.

Eager Eight:

Eight is the testy one. Be really careful about what you are gifting your partner for the eighth anniversary. Hence we advise that the tech is the best choice here. So, why not gift the latest iPhone or the laptop.

Nascent Nine:

No doubt that you have been together for nine wonderful years, but it is just now that a relationship begins to display its full potential. The best choice here would be a beautifully crafted swing or love seat where both of you can sit, talk, sip coffee and enjoy being together.

Triumphy Ten:

Together for ten amazing years. For the tenth anniversary, you just have to redo your vows. So, gift each other a bond of love and signify your journey with platinum bands.

Marriage is a beautiful journey and anniversaries are the milestones that commemorate it. So, make each year special by giving the love of your life unique gifts.
