Occasion guide

Wedding gift etiquette in India

Wedding customs vary by family and region. Follow the invitation and what you know about the couple, and treat this guide as a practical starting point rather than a fixed rulebook.

Match closeness, not appearances

Set a budget that reflects your relationship and means, not pressure from the event scale.

  • Coordinate group gifts openly
  • Check whether a registry exists
  • Keep receipts for size-sensitive items

Choose for the couple's real life

Home, travel, experiences, and contributions work best when they fit the couple's plans.

  • Avoid duplicate appliances
  • Confirm address before delivery
  • Include both names in the note
