Purchase Wedding Gifts at Belle Melange

Lately, many customers have popped into the shop seeking unique items to give as wedding gifts. Something newly weds won't already own... that wasn't on their registry... and that they can be surprised to receive (and add to their home).

I was reading about wedding gifts in today's economy... and the giving of tangible items has declined. Today, the most popular wedding gifts have been money or help with the honeymoon. Wouldn't it be nice to still receive something in the present batch that's not cash or from Bed Bath and Beyond?

Within our Ithaca store on State Street, shoppers can find wedding gifts to surprise the new couple. Something they are guaranteed not to own OR receive twice... and also to add character to their new home. Each day your gift can bring joy to the couple's lives, as they see it hanging on their walls or sitting on their table... and be reminded who it came from.

Here are some of our featured wedding gift items that I personally recommend:

Peacock Mirror, handpainted by Nina Maniscalo

Sweetheart stained glass window hanging, handcrafted by Lisa Burns

African Seat Cusions, handcrafted by Ann Steinle

Weeping Willow by The Lake, stained glass window hanging by Lisa Burns

Window on The Red Wall, photographed by Sheryl Sinkow

All items within our store are handmade or hand-painted by one of our eight contributing artists. I look forward to helping you discover the perfect gift for any wedding... celebration or special occasion here at Belle Melange.
