If you’ve been invited to the nuptials of your nearest and dearest it’s customary to bring a gift and choosing the perfect present can be a minefield.

3 out of 10 divorcing couples cite arguments over household chores as the reason behind the split. Therefore, we say what better gifts to give than ones to encourage wedded bliss for years to come. Appliance gifts, that make chores a breeze, are officially the way forward!

 

4 Slice Toaster

Gone are the days of singledom where a single serving of beans on toast would suffice. Upgrade the bride and groom to a 4 slice toaster so their bread can sit side by side, just as they’ll stay side by side for life. Who knew toast could be such a metaphor for romance?

Uses:

  • Hot cross buns
  • Muffins
  • Bagels
  • Crumpets
  • Waffles
  • Pop-Tarts
  • Oh and of course… toast

Argument avoided:

Who gets the first batch of toast!

Uses:

  • Summer soups
  • Pancakes
  • Milkshakes
  • Slushies
  • Smoothies

A combination of uncomfortable shoes, hours of standing around greeting guests and an evening tearing up the dance floor will almost certainly see the betrothed duo’s feet aching by the end of the wedding day. Their gratitude when they see this thoughtful gift will know no bounds.

Uses:

  • Relaxing after a hard day’s work
  • Relaxing after a hard night’s partying
  • Soothing feet after walks, runs or any time they’ve been put through their paces (literally!)

Coffee maker

Buying a coffee maker for the lovebirds has an advantage if you’re the type that likes ulterior motives. Next time you visit the marital home for a catch-up, chances are you’ll be offered a delicious quality coffee for your troubles. Plus, there are very few marital disputes that can’t be solved by sitting down with a cup of coffee and talking things over.

Uses:

  • Cappuccino, latte or Americano depending on preference
  • Caffè Mocha (chocolate coffee in layman’s terms –sign us up)
  • Iced coffee (just freeze the coffee in an ice cube tray to enjoy when the mood strikes)

Not spending enough quality time together!
