If the newly married couple has a wedding registry, it's always best to buy something from it. You can find the registry on the wedding invitation.

Wine glasses, glassware, wine, kitchen appliances, gadgets, gift cards, bath towels, and fresh linens are some of the most popular wedding gifts. Contributions to the honeymoon fund are also very popular – especially for a couple that already lives together.

How much money should be given as a wedding gift?
