39 Gifts for the Girl Who Has Everything—the Bride!

Give the woman of honor something she won't expect.

1 of 41

You've covered everyone on your list this season, including your girl and guy friends, your parents, the little ones in your life, and even your pet. There's just one person left to shop for: A bride. Shower the special lady in love this holiday season with a gift that she won't see coming. Whether you're her groom, her relative, or her friend, we're providing present ideas that you can get inspired by.

Brides are tough to shop for, and especially when they're about to get everything they want (ahem, the spouse of their dreams and all the goodies on their registries.) It's easy to feel stuck when planning a present for one, but fear not—we're here to help. Is the bride you're buying for obsessed with accessorizing, or is skincare more of her thing? Does she love sweating it out in fitness classes, or would she rather sit at home and cozy up on the couch? Is she tying the knot soon, or is she about to go on her honeymoon? We know that there are tons of possibilities, which is why we've addressed them all.

Ahead, a comprehensive assortment of gifts that are stylish, thoughtful, and unique. These presents work outside of the holiday season, too—you can give them to your wife on the wedding day, to your loved one at her bridal shower, or to a bride on her birthday. Best of all, we've included inspiration in a range of price points to suit various budgets.
