It’s not only swimming pool and berry season, but it’s also wedding season.
Love is in the air…and so are those beautiful wedding bells.
If you’re got a few weddings on your summer calendar, then you’re going to also need some great wedding gift ideas!
Although picking things from a couple’s registry is never a bad idea, maybe you would like to give them something a bit more unique. Get creative and really surprise your friends with a gift that won’t just be stuffed into their cupboard for the next five years.
Here are 5 ideas for foodie wedding gifts:
1. A locally-made goody or goody box
Find a food product that your state or city really does well and gift it to the newlyweds. This N.C. Made product is a great example with a package full of local goods like peanut butter, sauces, jams and more! Kill two birds with one stone (in a good way) by supporting local and supporting your friends with tasty treats.

2. Cheese board
From someone who got two cheese boards for wedding gifts, you can never have too many. They’re cute, can be used for more than just cheese, and they’ll inspire the bride and groom to have lots of wine and cheese parties in the future (that hopefully you’ll get invited to).

3. A Great Cookbook
Consider what type of food the couple likes and find a cookbook that will fit them perfectly. Maybe they’re vegetarian, enjoy creative/easy cooking, or maybe they’re super into baking.

4. A Kitchen Staple
Stock your friends’ kitchen with a classic kitchen staple, like a cast iron skillet, mixing bowls, measuring cups and/or a microplane.

5. A Food Subscription
Whether it’s a magazine, Wine of the Month club, or a local CSA or produce box, get your friends a food subscription for a gift that will really keep on giving for months to come!
Shower the new bride and groom with a gift that will stock their kitchen and support some great people and products!
