The origins of wedding gifts lie in the Middle Ages

The custom of the wedding gift dates back to the Middle Ages, when families and friends supported the bride and groom with practical gifts to make it easier to set up a household together. Back then, gifts were intended to ensure that the couple could start the marriage well provided for - a tradition that continues to this day.

Gifts of money are popular all over the world today, but have different meanings

In many cultures, monetary gifts for weddings are now standard, as they offer the couple flexibility. In countries such as China and India, there are fixed amounts that are considered to bring good luck - often based around the numbers 8 and 9, which stand for prosperity and longevity. In Europe, on the other hand, gifts are usually given without a fixed amount, but adapted to the couple's hospitality.

The "dowry" used to be a gift from the bride's family

In many cultures, the dowry, i.e. what the bride's family brought into the marriage, was a central part of the wedding gift. Today, dowries have largely gone out of fashion and have been replaced by gift tables, wish lists and monetary gifts that benefit both spouses.

The gift table - a modern invention of the 20th century

The gift table became popular in the 20th century and allowed couples to select specific gifts that were useful to them for the household. Today, the physical table is mostly replaced by online wish lists that allow guests worldwide to make specific requests and avoid unnecessary duplicate gifts.

Symbolic gifts often have a deep meaning

Some wedding gifts are purely symbolic and are intended to accompany the couple on their journey through life together. In Greece, for example, olive trees are popular gifts as they stand for peace and fertility. In many cultures, the presentation of bread and salt is also an old custom that is intended to bless the couple.

Gifts for the bride and groom: Often a "joint effort" in the past

In the past, wedding guests often came together to finance a large gift for the couple - such as the dowry chest or the first cattle for the farm. This communal gift represented the blessing and support of the whole community. Nowadays, guests tend to give gifts individually, but the aim remains the same: to support the couple on their journey and bring joy.
