Stylish, Gender-Neutral Wedding Gifts To Wear And Share With Your Lover!

A White person with facial hair and a black top is looking down. They are wearing a black trucker cap with the word 'LOVE' embroidered in white.

The Un-Wedding’s embroidered ‘LOVE’ trucker cap is the perfect gift to wear and share with your lover!

Ok, here’s the truth… when I was getting married there is no way I would have been caught dead in any sort of wedding memorabilia… you know, like ‘Bride-To-Be’ or ‘Wifey’ T Shirts and the like. And Ben is definitely not the sort to want to wear a pair of ‘Groom’ socks or cufflinks! No shade to anyone who likes these things because it’s a personal choice and… well, some people like labels!

When I first decided to have an online shop as part of The Un-Wedding brand, I knew I wanted to create some slightly less cheesy and less obvious wedding apparel for Un-Wedding couples, and to some extent, I think I managed that by bringing in some famous Un-Wedding slogans like ‘Love Forever’ and ‘Til Death’ which became best sellers! However, I’d chosen to placate the mass market who enjoy the short-lived label of being a ‘bride’ with designs like our ‘Very Important Bride’ and ‘Kiss The Bride’ range, also best-sellers!

But the thing is, I’ve never really been that comfortable with the idea of people buying something that will be so short-lived and I’m also ever-conscious of the fact that labels like ‘Bride’ and ‘Groom’ feel outdated because they simply don’t fit everyone. I mean, I hope all those VIB’s and KTB’s out there still loved their wedding T-Shirts and wear them to bed or for lounging around but I wanted to design some fresh, new wedding merch that appeals to lovers in love without trying to put them in a box!

Cool wedding T-Shirts and Sweaters that don’t say ‘Bride’ or ‘Groom’

I feel like this is something I would have Googled back in the day when I was planning my wedding if I was looking for something cute to wear for our pre-wedding celebrations, the morning of or the morning after. Because love and marriage is waaaaay bigger than those traditional terms, right?! So yeah, if you feel the same then The Un-Wedding’s online shop is the place for you! Explore our range of comfortable cotton T-Shirts and sweaters that are either embroidered or printed love-centric words and slogans, making it easy to express yourself and your feelings without the restraints of gender labels.

Wear and share with your partner!

Ok so, me and Ben have a designated spot in our wardrobe whereby we hang our ‘shared’ clothes… mainly tops, although I do sometimes lounge around in Ben’s joggers too. Does anyone else do this?! We’ve actually always shared clothes, even when we were just friends. I guess it helps that we like a lot of the same things… mainly black tops and T Shirts, but it’s nice. And yes, it helps that we are similar in size and it won’t work for everyone but if it works for you, do it! Or better still, why not mix and match a couple of our items so you can make an even bolder statement when wearing them together, like our ‘LOVE’ ‘FOREVER’ beanies, perfect for wearing alone or together.

Made-to-order inclusive sizing

The Un-Wedding has always tried to be inclusive when it comes to our size range on garments but it can be hard to keep enough stock in a range of size ratios. Fortunately, our shift to a dropping shipping model means that all of our garments are now made-to-order meaning that we don’t have to hold stock and aren’t limited to key sizes.

Stylish wedding gifts for your home

For the first time ever, I am really excited to be able to offer stylish and contemporary gifts for your home! The Un-Wedding’s homeware range is the perfect place to shop for an alternative wedding present for your friends or, for yourselves! My favourite has to be the embroidered ‘YOURS + MINE’ towels which are our gender-neutral take on the traditional ‘MR & MRS’ monogrammed towels that you sometimes see. They are soft, luxurious, and absolutely MASSIVE so, even though you can have your own designated bath towel, you could easily snuggle up together in one! They are available in black and white so you can do the whole mix and match thing too! Also the perfect towels to bring on your honeymoon for the beach!
