How to give money for a wedding in an unusual way?
If you are still in doubt about whether you should give money for a wedding, here are a few arguments why it is better to make just such a gift:
- It is impossible to agree with all the guests regarding gifts, so there is a high risk that the newlyweds will receive several vacuum cleaners or sets of dishes for the wedding.
- You may not be able to guess with the desired model of household appliances or other expensive item. It is better to present the amount that the young family will spend on their desires and needs at their own discretion.
- A young family needs start-up capital, so money is the best wedding gift. In addition, perhaps the spouses are collecting a large sum for a major purchase (an apartment, a car).
You can put the bills in a beautiful postcard envelope and present them with congratulations at the celebration. But it is much more interesting if the presentation of money takes place in a playful and humorous manner. You can act out a skit, come up with a theatrical performance with dressing up, or perform a remake song. Unusual congratulations will be remembered by the newlyweds, will lift their spirits and add a cheerful note to the special event.
Congratulations on a wedding with the presentation of money can be original and unusual. We offer several interesting ideas on how to surprise and delight the newlyweds on their wedding day:
- Air balloons. Pour confetti and glitter inside the multi-colored balls, and then place banknotes rolled into tubes and secured with thin elastic bands.
- Box with money. Place banknotes on the bottom of the box, and put coins of different denominations on top.
- Money tree. You will need a living plant in a flowerpot on which banknotes are hung using satin ribbons.
- Treasure chest. If the wedding is themed (for example, in the style of “Pirates of the Caribbean”), give the newlyweds a chest decorated with shells, pebbles and artificial pearls, inside which the guys will find a monetary surprise.
- Photo album. A simple but effective way to present money for a wedding in an original way. Choose a beautiful album, and instead of pictures, put a bill in each pocket.
- Money carpet. Place bills in an even layer on a thick piece of fabric, place a transparent film on top and stitch so that the money remains intact. All that remains is to decorate the gift with braid and fringe.
- Picture in frame. Take a large photo frame, place a heart of banknotes under the glass, or simply scatter them in a chaotic manner.
- Bablothrower. Attach the bills to a regular broom, decorate it with bows, ribbons and hand it to the newlyweds at the wedding.
- Sweet box. Fold the bills into an empty chocolate box and hand them with wishes for a sweet life.
- Money cake. Attach the banknotes folded into tubes with rubber bands onto the cardboard tiers. Decorate each tier with satin ribbons.
- Soft toy with an envelope in its paws. The newlyweds will surely like this cute gift.
Money bouquet
Living bouquets, although beautiful, will sooner or later dry out and cease to please. But the original bouquet of banknotes will not wither. There are many examples on the Internet of how you can beautifully fold banknotes into flowers. The donor must calculate in advance how much he is going to give and what size the finished bouquet should be. The more magnificent it is, the more bills will be used. Banknotes are secured so that they can be taken out without any problems.

Comic scenes with the presentation of money for a wedding
You can present money to the newlyweds at a wedding in an unusual way, for example, in the form of a cool theatrical scene.
Scene “Gift from the Sheikh”
Toastmaster:
The sheikh and his harem came to the wedding to congratulate the newlyweds on their wedding day.
To the accompaniment of oriental music, a guest dressed as a sheikh enters the hall. His wives move behind him in single file.
If men dress up as the sheikh's wives, the scene will turn out even more fun.
Sheikh:
Groom, I sincerely congratulate you,
I wish you a big harem.
Why one bride, dear groom, tell me?
Any of my wives, please hold!
The wives take turns approaching the groom, trying to kiss and hug him.
Sheikh:
Since you don’t want my wives, here’s another gift for you,
Buy yourself whatever you want, quickly, dear!
Palace, Maybach, cool yacht,
In general, I present this envelope to you.
The sheikh hands over a large envelope decorated with “precious” stones and sparkles.
Sheikh:
Do not offend your wife under any circumstances,
Buy her the best outfits, jewelry, furs.
Live in love and harmony, have children soon,
Swim in money and live in luxury.
The wives perform a dance with the sheikh and leave.
Sketch “Congratulations to the newlyweds from alcoholics”
2 guests come out into the hall, dressed as alcoholics. Bottles clink in their bags, their noses are painted red.
1st alcoholic:
Let's go to the wedding, dear drinking buddy,
Alcohol flows there, probably like a river.
2nd alcoholic:
But it’s somehow worthless to go without a gift,
And you and I don’t really look like guests.
1st alcoholic:
I found butterflies for us in the trash heap.
Now let's dress up, and it will be just cool.
He takes out bow ties and ties them for himself and a friend.
2nd alcoholic:
It is customary to give gifts at a wedding,
We only have bottles, so what can we do with that?
1st alcoholic:
I also solved this problem,
I recently got hold of some glass containers.
I quickly handed over all the bottles to the receptacle,
He collected money in an envelope from the two of us.
He takes out an envelope (you need to get it a little dirty in advance).
2nd alcoholic:
They rather ran to the wedding then,
The young people, of course, were looking forward to such a gift.
"Alcoholics" hand over an envelope to the newlyweds.
1st alcoholic:
Bride and groom, we congratulate you,
We raise these glasses to you today.
They drink and run away from the hall.

Cool wedding toasts in poetry and prose
Cool wedding toasts in prose
Cool wedding toasts in verse:
So that there is no quarrel or anger in the house, So that the house is visited by welcome guests, So that there is fun with laughter, So that even melancholy is choked with laughter. So that there is no surplus in your offspring, and the norm for you is only 10 children. Let them become engineers, artists, teachers, writers and hockey players. And if you want to have an astronaut, buy another one from the store.
We congratulate the newlyweds, we wish them love and happiness, for the husband to obey his wife and love her alone, and for the wife to give birth to children, sweet, glorious naughty girls! We expect from you heroes and beautiful daughters. And we also wish you to be young forever, Don’t forget to invite us to your golden wedding.
We wish to live to be a hundred years old, to always have a cheerful appearance, to be as young, and not soon to turn gray. Give birth to excellent children, raise glorious grandchildren. You must become both a great-grandmother and a great-grandfather!
All ages are submissive to love, as the wise classic said. So let the nimble Cupid flutter among you, sparing no effort. So bare your hearts to Him, as they say! Let him “cripple” you with arrows from January to December.
We wish you to live for many years, to love faithfully and to be loved. In life there is no need to know anxiety and grief - that’s what we want to wish you.
May you have no gloomy days, May happiness boldly enter your home, May you be warm from laughter, And may there be light all around from love! Let there be a measure of joy, a measure of sadness, Frost and heat - everything will be in moderation, And only let happiness always be beautiful and immeasurable.
Love, family! What could be more valuable? A crystal vessel full of roses, A gift from the stars, the basis of happiness, For many only a source of dreams. Take the gift carefully in your hands, like a light flame of a candle, do not lose it, carry it through all obstacles and swords.
A little about the contents of toasts
The basic rules for making toasts are their short duration. One toast should take 1 - 2 minutes - this is the most optimal time
Otherwise, guests will get tired of listening to the speech and simply stop paying attention to the speaker
Characteristics of a good toast:
- brevity;
- the content matches the wedding theme;
- absence of banal phrases and cliches;
- originality;
- the text must carry a positive emotional charge.
It is necessary to take care of drafting the text of the toast in advance; in this case, its words will be remembered by the newlyweds for a long time and will become a useful parting word for them in their future family life.
Method No. 1 – Collage of money for newlyweds-travelers
For newlyweds who love to travel, you can prepare a special surprise. Create a kind of collage of currencies from different countries of the world, the more there are, the better. It is not at all necessary to have only large bills (you can use several solid ones, for example, 100 euros or 100 dollars), the main thing for a collage is variety.
You will definitely surprise the newlyweds with such an original gift. In addition, read the congratulations in poetic form, because poems for a gift (money for a wedding) will be an ideal addition. Mention that the young people now need to visit all the countries of the world whose banknotes are in your gift.
Wishes of the groom for the bride
A wedding toast to the groom is a pre-prepared congratulatory speech addressed to the bride, groom or other relatives. Recently, the so-called response speeches of the bride and groom have become especially popular.
Previously, they were given very few words at the event itself. A witness and a female witness took part in the competition instead. And the bride and groom just sat like silent spectators who came to watch the entertainment.
Now the situation has changed radically. From now on, the bride and groom are full-fledged parts of the wedding celebration. And every guest waits for warm and kind words to be heard from the newlyweds.
The groom madly loves and appreciates his wife, which is why he made such a serious decision about marriage. A woman would be very pleased to hear words of love addressed to her at the celebration itself.
In European tradition, there is a custom when the bride and groom make vows to each other before official registration.
Groom's toast to the bride at a wedding.
In Russia, this tradition has been slightly distorted; the bride and groom make congratulatory toasts after registration, during a gala dinner or banquet.
- My dear Olga, I am very glad that once on my life’s path I met you. Our acquaintance was symbolic; we met when the lilacs were blooming. Since then, I began to adore spring, lilacs and, of course, you. I will try to make sure that flowers always smell fragrant around us, and that there are as few rainy days as possible in our lives. I can protect you from all adversity and warm you in difficult times. Olga, thank you for becoming my wife. (After these words, the man brings a large bouquet of lilacs into the hall and hands them to the bride).
- Tatiana, dear Tatiana. For me you are like a song, like a falcon in the sky. Now I want your worries to become mine. So don’t worry, I’m always there for you, I love and care about you. May you and your parents have peace of mind from now on. Our life will shine with bright colors. I promise you this. All you have to do is love me back. Then everything in our life will be wonderful.
- One day, three winds met in one place. The southern one blew out and brought beauty, passion and ardor of nature. Then the north wind blew hard, bringing with it intelligence, calculation and prudence. And the last to blow was the east wind, which gave thrift and hard work. Thanks to all the winds, a beautiful girl was born, who today became my wife. Thank you for being you.
Method No. 9 – Gift passbook
Here’s another fun way to give money for a wedding: make a savings book. How to create:
To make the gift more colorful and original, write humorous poems on each “leaf” of the passbook, similar to those given below.
1. Although your happiness does not lie in money, you cannot live without it. We decided to give you a savings book first.
2. An account has been opened for you in Sberbank, the interest on the deposit will be high! We will invest a lot of money, or a little, but in the bank your money will turn into capital!
And each envelope has its own text:
FOR FURNITURE: Don’t waste your money, buy furniture wisely, so that it lasts for hundreds of years, and never wears out.
FOR CHILDREN: Take it to your savings book, What is appropriate for children: For diapers, for panties, and for other needs.
FOR THE BRIDE: For you, (name of the bride), for outfits, for sweets, for lipsticks. Spend your money wisely, but don't tell your husband.
FOR ENTERTAINMENT: For dancing, for cinema, for accordion and for piano. We have also provided for it, we have not spared you any money.
TO THE GARAGE: Buy a car later, We think you’ll be lucky, So that it doesn’t get ruined, We put it in the garage first.
FOR ANYTHING: For Hawaiian cigars, For decent wine... Even if they put it in an envelope, I still feel sorry for the money.
IN TIMES OF CRISIS: If a rainy day has come, then in this case open the last envelope and do not torture yourself.
FOR THE GROOM: (Groom's name), for love cupids And for women on the side You don't expect bills from us, Instead of money - you don't care!
Leave the last envelope empty!
