And may we suggest stopping at Girasole around the corner for a fabulous Italian meal… after all, shopping takes a lot out of you! We recommend the ravioli.

Gift Guide: A Newlywed’s First Christmas

‘Tis the season for gift giving! Here at The Event Group we have been searching for the perfect gifts for a newlywed’s first Christmas. Help them create lasting memories as they begin their lives together with special and unique gifts! See some of our favorites below.

invitation ornament

This gift is partially DIY but will be something the new couple will cherish forever. Simply take their wedding invitation and cut into strips. Curl the strips and place them inside the ornament. Every year when they place the ornament on the tree, they will think of you and their wedding!

kate spade mr and mrs glassesThese hiball glasses are fun for the newlyweds to drink festive cocktails from. They’re perfect for holding bloody marys on Christmas morning. Check out these 10 great bloody mary recipes for some cocktail inspiration.

sonosSonos speakers are a great gift for any couple. The speakers offer superior sound quality and are small and discreet. Create a playlist on Spotify with meaningful songs for the couple or give them a Pandora subscription to pair with the speakers.

nestGive the gift of warmth with a Nest Thermostat. This modern gadget connects to your household wifi and enables you to control the temperature of your home with your iPhone. It helps to save energy because Nest has the ability to learn your daily routines. Once Nest has learned your routine, it sets itself on the correct temperature based on the time of day. Talk about a smart Thermostat!

custom home painted ornament

custom painted ornament is a special and unique gift. Have an ornament customized with the couple’s new home, their dog, or even their monogram. They will enjoy this gift for many Christmases to come.

nespresso machine

A Nespresso machine is a great gift for the couple that loves their daily dose of caffeine. This machine works similar to a Keurig (a gadget that we love here at The Event Group) in that it brews the espresso from individual pods. This way, the newlyweds can customize their espresso just the way they like.

custom stamp

A custom stamp is a great gift for the newlyweds (also a great gift for new home owners). Paper-Source offers many different designs so you can choose one that will fit the couple’s personality and taste. Add some ink pads and stationery and you’ve created a wonderful, personalized gift fit for a great couple.

POP!: Orr’s Jewelers

The Event Group launched POP! Proposal Planning a few weeks ago and along with the launch, we highlighted Henne Jewelers. Today we’d like to highlight another great jeweler in Pittsburgh, Orr’s Jewelers, which has locations in Squirrel Hill and Sewickley.

We enjoyed meeting the owner, David Gordon (412-421-6777), and touring the store with Karen. Karen was knowledgeable about all of the beautiful jewelry and showed us some fabulous pieces like the 5 carat ring shown above.
