- a bag of rice from your pantry - bundle of overdried eucalyptus - a silk scarf, or several pairs of gently used socks - zippo lighter - no drip no smoke tapered candles - assortment of edible seeds in a shaker - take them out for oyster happy hour, your treat! - find some relevant to them poems and memorize / recite them to their face with eye contact

I love to give gifts, and I think the best/most consistent formula for a gift someone will really love is something they’ll use, but wouldn’t splurge on for themselves— so if they enjoy coffee, a nice french press or Chemex along with a good bean subscription, or even a Moka pot and milk frother for espresso drinks at home— this formula works for most occasions, and relies on knowing the person/couple. Some good standbys that I get often are:
a good set of bathrobes; bathrobes make getting out of the shower much nicer, but many people wouldn’t get a really good robe for themselves; try Oddbird, Brooklinen, or LL Bean (which you can have monogrammed with a couples new initials)
a good vinyl player (if they collect vinyl), or a good set of speakers if they already have a quality turntable but poor speakers,
a subscription or service— for my girlfriends I usually buy a facial or a massage that they can schedule whenever, for a couple, maybe a theater subscription, a museum membership, or a couple’s massage— these are things people really enjoy but might not do for themselves, especially in the first year of marriage.
I tend to avoid overly customized gifts; if it isn’t something someone wants it may accidentally go unused and is impossible to return or regift.

“Have you learned anything bizarre lately? Something that kinda blew your mind?”
“If you could do anything this weekend, no obligations, what would your ideal day or Sunday look like?”
“Has anyone ever told you that you favor a celebrity?”
“If this event had a secret theme, what do you think it would be?”
“Do you ever get told you have ‘a vibe’? Like someone tries to describe you as an era or an aesthetic?”
“What’s a small thing that would instantly make your day better?”
“I wonder if they’re going to make us do icebreakers. What’s the weirdest or most fun one you’ve ever had to do?”

get you some app-operated light bulbs and set them to fade on instead of a noise alarm, or wake up with the sunrise.
