Weddings. The most memorable celebration in any couple’s life and the beginning of a new chapter that holds many surprises. While they always find a way to come out perfectly, a heck of a lot of work goes into planning and preparing. But the bride and groom are not the only ones under stress during this time! Family, friends, and guests are also determined to purchase a unique gift that will stand out from the rest. With the help of Target Wedding, nerves are settled and the process of gift giving becomes enjoyable again. Consisting of classic items and non-traditional gadgets, the Target Wedding Catalog has a variety of gifts for the couple you are shopping for. It allows you to find something for each of their personalities while representing their theme, “Be Yourself, Together.” With this in mind, I set out to find my own perfect pairing for two love birds in my life.

While shopping for the perfect gift duo, I took the time to gather inspiration from two special people in my life who are engaged and preparing to wed! My mom and her fiance have been engaged for seven months and soon they will be celebrating the most memorable day of their lives. So much thought and time goes into planning a wedding. You have to hire a coordinator, pick your meals, choose the color scheme, and many more tedious details that bring the celebration together. Knowing my mom, they will be spending quite some time on the flowers and theme! While they are sorting out those important decisions, I have been busy planning their gifts. I wanted to make sure that each gift I chose complimented their individual personalities but also could be brought together to enjoy as a couple.

My soon to be stepfather is the head cook of the house. He always has some unique recipe or spice that make his dishes stand out from the rest. One of his favorite ways to prepare meals is on the grill. Whether it’s chicken or steak, a perfectly cooked piece can make any meal fantastic! Heck, he could even throw vegetables on there and they would come out tasty. He is your typical “man” who loves being outdoors, preparing good food, and pleasing everyone’s taste buds.


For him I chose the Weber One Touch Grill in Silver. This charcoal grill is a must-have item for any new couple’s backyard. It’s a reasonable size for a small or large area. You can easily move it from one location to the next with the wheels attached. I love the modern appearance of the grill itself. The porcelain enameled bowl gives it a sleek look. It’s also waterproof which is needed for those rainy Florida days, weeks, and months. Not only could he use this grill to make dinner for the family, but also feed the masses during Football season coming up!

My mom is your typical “mother hen” and loves to nurture those around her. She hates cooking but loves to try new delicious foods. You won’t find her in the kitchen because she is always the one entertaining guests. She bakes to her heart is content and eagerly shares her creations. Whether it is a new recipe or quirky dessert, she never fails to deliver the element of surprise! 

This is why I chose the Threshold 5- Sectioned Serving Platter as her gift. This porcelain tray has five generous sections that can be used for finger foods or snacks. One thing that came to mind when choosing this gift was our weekly BBQ nights. Once her fiance is done cooking dinner on the grill, the first thing we do is roast marshmallows for homemade s’mores. I thought that this gift would be great for holding all of the elements needed to make the fluffy sandwiches. My mom could also use it for the holidays and anytime guests are over. It’s the gift that keeps on givin’.. 

For a sweet touch, I even purchased a few s’more maker essentials. I’ve always been known to add my own personal flare to the gifts I give. I enjoy putting sincere thought into the process! I can see my mom and her fiance both enjoying a pair of toasty marshmallows under the stars together. This would probably be considered a non traditional gift but it fits both of their personalities perfectly. Both gifts exemplify Target Wedding’s “Be Yourself, Together” theme and are sure to compliment one another.

Will you be attending a wedding this Fall? Use the Target Wedding registry to find a hers and his gift that will bring them both together in harmony.

    I loved this gift idea. It would be perfect for myself and husband. I am not one of those blankets with the date on it that no one can enjoy kind of person. And we love Target a place where you can find anything. Nice shopping trip and super sweet.

    Target has a wedding catalog?! I am a HUGE target fan, their selection of items may be smaller than some others but it is better and.

    That really is a thoughtful couples' gift idea! I'd love, love if someone gifted that to me ( I mean, to us) lol :) Target is my go-to place for gift ideas, because they have great prices and a fun selection of products. Not to mention, you can sip on coffee while you browse around :) Thanks for sharing!

    When we first started planning our wedding, we were interested in booking venues nearby, but all of the places we visited were either rip-offs, rigid or overall run-down and just not that impressive. But this venue was a true gem.
