Traditional Jewish Wedding Gifts (Judaica)

Ketubah, Sheva Berakhot, Horah, Chuppah…

If you’ve never been to a Jewish wedding before – this all probably sounds like Chinese to you (actually, it’s Hebrew… but close enough 🙂 )

Yep, Jewish weddings have LOTS of interesting customs & traditions.

Guess what? That includes giving the couple traditional Jewish wedding gifts every Jewish couple needs in their home!

Michael Aram Black Orchid Candleholders

Top Traditional Gift
Michael Aram Black Orchid Candleholders

Imagine the first Shabbat the bride and groom share together.

It’s Friday in the afternoon. 

The wedding is over.

They’re exhausted. It’s been a long week…

“Thank God it’s Shabbat”, she whispers.

It’s getting dark… time to light Shabbat candles!

She takes out the gorgeous Michael Aram Shabbat candlesticks you got them for their wedding and marvels at their beauty.

“Well, aren’t you a sight for sore eyes”, she says out loud.

She goes from tired ⇒ to fully awake… instantly. 

She lights the candles, recites the blessings, and stares in awe at the illuminating black Orchid candlesticks while whispering to her husband: “Shabbat Shalom”.

Wouldn’t that be something?

Michael Aram Black Orchid Celebration Kiddush Cup

Michael Aram Black Orchid Celebration Cup

Now that the Shabbat candles are lit… it’s time for Kiddush!

Just like the candlesticks – Michael Aram’s phenomenal Kiddush cup makes you skip a beat and marvel at its beauty before you pour the Kiddush wine.

Imagine if the lucky couple got both the Michael Aram candlesticks AND the Michael Aram Kiddush cup for their wedding?

That’s not just any lucky couple… that’s an insanely lucky couple! 

No doubt – Shabbat and holidays will be extremely special at the newlywed’s new home.

Who knows… thanks to your amazing gift – there’s a good chance you’ll even get invited 🙂

Get from Amazon

Recommended: There are plenty of beautiful Kiddush cups that’ll make an excellent gift for the Jewish couple!

Michael Aram Black Orchid Mezuzah

Michael Aram Black Orchid Mezuzah

Speaking of the couple’s new home… what’s the first thing you do when you move into your new home? You affix a Mezuzah on your front door – a symbol of our faith in God.

The Mezuzah serves as a constant reminder of God’s care for his children. 

Every time you walk in and out of your home – whether it’s Monday morning (morning blues) or it’s Shabbat in the afternoon (Shabbat-is-over blues) – a quick glance at the Mezuzah will immediately cheer you up.

Not to mention if the Mezuzah you’re staring at is Michael Aram’s incredible modern Mezuzah. In that case – staring you will.

As opposed to Aram’s other popular Judaica wedding gifts – where you get to use them only on Shabbat and holidays… the Mezuzah is permanent.

I figured there’s no better way to “seal” the Michael Aram Black Orchid trilogy than that.

Yair Emanuel Wooden Challah Board, Knife & Stand – Jerusalem

Yair Emanuel Wooden Challah Board, Knife & Stand - Jerusalem

If you ever walk around the many art galleries in Jerusalem, you’ll notice one name that keeps popping up over and over again: Yair Emanuel, one of Israel’s finest contemporary Judaica artists.

Some people know him by name, others know him by his signature design – the acrylic colors, playful illustrations, and admirable attention to detail.

His wooden Challah board & knife set is a fabulous example of just that. No, this isn’t a canvas you hang on your wall. It’s Jerusalem’s old city –  hand-painted on the surface of a wooden Challah board.

Every time you bless Hamotzi with Emanuel’s artistic Challah board – you might not physically be in Jerusalem… but you’ll definitely feel like you’re there in “spirit”.

Yair Emanuel Stainless Steel Pomegranate Havdalah Set

Yair Emanuel Stainless Steel Pomegranate Havdallah Set

The Shabbat candle lighting marks the beginning of the Shabbat…the Havdalah ceremony marks the end of it.

What better way to end Shabbat, and start the new week off on the right foot than with Yair Emanuel’s gorgeous Havdalah set?

Emanuel’s beautiful, sparkling, stainless steel Havdalah set creates a seamless blend of modernity and Jewish tradition, thanks to the traditional pomegranates surrounding the Havdalah set, giving the Havdalah the sense of prosperity it rightly deserves.

There’s a reason he’s considered the top Judaica artist in the world.

Did You Know?

Yair Emanuel’s Havdalah set has also won Amen V’Amen’s “Top Havdalah Set” award (see Havdalah sets).

Yair Emanuel Anodized Aluminum Kiddush Fountain

Yair Emanuel Anodized Aluminum Kiddush Fountain Blue

The newlywed is about to share a lifetime of L’Chayims together with their friends and family: on Shabbat, on holidays, or on the birth of their children… 

I think it’s safe to say – when you’re celebrating with so many people… a single Kiddush cup isn’t exactly going to cut it.

Nope… they’ll need a proper Kiddush set so that everyone can raise a glass together!

Here’s the beauty of it though: they won’t have to spend 30 minutes pouring wine and passing Kiddush cups one by one every single L’chayim.

All they have to do is pour wine at the top of the fountain and witness the wine flowing from top to bottom – filling the small Kiddush cups all at once.

It’s magical!

Tip: This is a particularly great gift for an Orthodox Jewish wedding.

Jewish Bride Wedding & Bridal Shower Gifts

The bride has been waiting for this day probably since she was 3 years old.

That’s right – while the baby groom was playing video games and pretending to be Superman, we used to “play” bride and imagine what our wedding night would look like (was it just me 🙄?).

So with all due respect to the groom, let’s first find the bride a magnificent wedding gift that’ll make her dream wedding finally come true! 

Tip: These gifts are just as good for a Jewish bridal shower.

Hebrew Letters Women’s Watch by Adi

Top Gift for Bride
Hebrew Letters Womens Watch By Adi

A gold-plated watch?

Yawn 😴… so cliche.

This is a Jewish wedding, with a Jewish bride. 

So why on earth would you get her an ordinary watch… when you can get her a gorgeous & elegant Jewish watch – made by one of Israel’s luxury watch brands – ADI.

You tell me: if you were the bride – what kind of watch would you wear to remind yourself of your wedding night? The same ol’ watch you’ve seen a million times before, or a classy Hebrew letters watch that stands out from the pack?

Needless to say: it’s no contest.

Jerusalem: A Cookbook

Jerusalem A Cookbook

The problem with a Jewish wedding? It only lasts a single night.

What if the bride wants to enjoy all that delicious Jewish & Israeli cuisine she had at her wedding – ALL-THE-TIME?

Does that mean she has to book an expensive trip to Israel every time she wants a taste of Israel?

Nope… she can enjoy the vibrant food and delicious aromas you get on the streets of Jerusalem –  from the comfort of her own kitchen.

All she needs is Yotam Ottolenghi (the famous London-based Israeli chef) bestselling cookbook to keep herself busy for years. 

From middle eastern food (think Hummus and the likes), traditional Jewish pastries, all the way up to Georgian food (yep). 

It’ll keep her busy for years (I’m speaking from experience).

In Her Voice – An Illuminated Book of Prayers for Jewish Women

In Her Voice An Illuminated Book Of Prayers For Jewish Women

With all the partying and excessive alcohol drinking  – it’s easy to forget that a Jewish wedding is, first and foremost, a spiritual celebration… the day two Jewish souls unite into one.

So, it might be a good idea to put aside those shiny & expensive gifts… and instead satisfy the soul.

How?

With this special illuminated book of women’s prayers – made especially for Jewish brides.

The book contains 28 prayers collected from around the world, many of them recited exclusively by women, including:

  • Eshet Chayil
  • Hannah’s prayer of thanksgiving
  • The first-ever women’s prayer before Torah study

Each prayer is accompanied by text from Hebrew, Ladino and Yiddish sources, and cover the entire woman’s life circle – from birth to a Bat Mitzvah, through marriage, birth, parenting, all the way up to death & mourning.

An incredibly thoughtful Jewish wedding & Jewish bridal shower gift.

Jewish Groom Wedding Gifts

We’ve found a gift for the bride. Awesome!

Now, it’s the groom’s turn. After all, you don’t want the groom to feel left out and start crying under the Chuppah, now do you? (actually, maybe you do)

No, no, no! That’ll break his heart! And then we won’t be able to break the glass!

So let’s go get the nice Jewish fella a nice Jewish wedding gift to make sure that doesn’t happen, shall we? 🙂

Silver Kiddush Cup and Saucer with Golden Highlights – Old Jerusalem Levels

Top Gift for Groom
Silver Kiddush Cup And Saucer With Golden Highlights Old Jerusalem Levels

I’m sure every man (or woman, for that matter) would agree: nothing beats a Kiddush in Jerusalem… especially on Shabbat and holidays. Especially at the western wall!

It’s so spiritually uplifting… I try to go at least a few times a year.

But what if the bride & groom don’t live in Israel? What if they can’t go to Jerusalem a few times a year? Does that mean they’re “screwed”?

Not necessarily…

Instead of doing Kiddush in Jerusalem, they can do Kiddush with Jerusalem.

This exceptional Kiddush cup is entirely designed after the old city of Jerusalem (including the saucer). And in wonderful detail, too.

Sure, you may not be physically traveling to Jerusalem… but thanks to this outstanding Kiddush cup – it brings Jerusalem close enough.

Hebrew Letters Classic Golden Watch by Adi

Hebrew Letters Classic Golden Watch by Adi

We already got the bride a beautiful golden watch by ADI.

Now, it’s time to spoil the groom with his very own ADI watch (you don’t want poor hubby to get jealous, now do you?)!

Forget Rolexes. This is a Jewish wedding… so instead – we’ll go for the “Israeli Rolex”!

They’re classier than a Rolex,  more “Jewish” than a Rolex, AND they don’t cost nearly as much as a Rolex.

Now that’s what I call “Mazel Tov!”

Nadav Art Ten Commandments Sterling Silver Tallit Clips

Nadav Art Ten Commandments Sterling Silver Tallit Clips

Did you know that Ashkenazi men start wearing their Tallit after they get married?

Granted, odds are the groom – whether he’s Ashkenazi or Sephardic – already has a Tallit for his wedding (if he doesn’t – here’s a stunning Tallit you can get him).

Note: We have an entire list of gorgeous Tallit prayer shawls you can check out too. 

But I bet you he doesn’t have Tallit clips!

These remarkable sterling silver Tallit clips will upgrade any Tallit – doesn’t matter if the guy owns a $20 dollar Tallit or a $200 Tallit.

Talk about elevating your prayer. 

No doubt these Tallit clips (which, by the way, are designed after the 10 commandments) will do just that.

Jewish Household Items

Let’s face it: in today’s rough economy – the last thing the couple needs is another useless gift they’ll stash in their basement.

No…

More than ever – they want need gifts they can actually use.

Things that are essential in any Jewish household, as opposed to stuff that collects dust in the closet.

Things that’ll help the young couple build a life, not a junkyard.

These Jewish items might not be as “sexy” as the rest of the gifts… but trust me – they’re the most helpful items a young Jewish couple needs.

NutriChef Portable Electric Food Hot Plate

Top Jewish Household Gift
Nutrichef Portable Electric Food Hot Plate 2

People bring all sorts of expensive Jewelry, fancy clothes or other luxuries to Jewish weddings. 

Thing is, no amount of Jewelry will help if the couple doesn’t even have warm food on Shabbat… especially when most of these fancy-schmancy gifts end up in the closet anyway.

Jews gotta eat first! 

Wouldn’t you feel much better knowing that your gift is actually feeding the young couple and satisfying their tummies?

Shabbat-observant couples don’t just want a Shabbat hot plate… they need a Shabbat hot plate.

What kind of Shabbat hot plate should you get them?

Personally, I believe NutriChef’s portable hot plate is the way to go.

Why?

  1. It has a large surface area – great for small (married couples) AND large families (married couples + kids). 
  2. It heats incredibly quickly: the last thing you want on Shabbat dinner is to wait for hours till the food gets warm.
  3. It’s portable – excellent for house parties or every time they’re having guests (that’s you!) over for a meal.

Everything a Shabbat-observant couple needs to enjoy warm, cozy and delicious Shabbat meals.

Chefman Hot Water Dispenser Instant Electric Pot

Chefman Hot Water Dispenser Instant Electric Pot

I don’t know about you – but if you deprive me of hot coffee on Shabbat (and tea in the afternoon), it ain’t a pretty sight (proud coffee addict 🙋‍♀️).

That’s what Chefman’s Shabbat hot water urn is for – an endless (OK, not really endless, but it sure feels like it) supply of hot water that makes the cold & depressing winter warm and enjoyable.

A fabulous gift that’ll serve the couple well on Shabbat and Yom Tov.

TIP: Guess what? I also wrote an article showcasing our favorite Shabbat hot water urns. Would you care to guess which one won our “Top Shabbat Hot Water Urn” award (hint: you’re looking at it)?

Crock-Pot Slow Cooker

Crock Pot 5 Quart Slow Cooker

Cholent, anyone?

I have to admit… I’m no fan of cholent.

But it’s an inseparable part of Kiddush on Shabbat morning (or afternoon if you’re Chabad).

Simply prepare your cholent (or anything else you want to prepare for Shabbat day) before Shabbos, set the slow cooker to high heat – and the next morning you’ll enjoy a hot & delicious meal! (thank God it’s Shabbat because your stomach could use a good “rest”)

“This is for the crazy ones. the misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules, and they have no respect for the status quo… And while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius. Because people who think they can buy unique & creative Jewish wedding gifts – are the ones who do.”

David Gerstein Signed Sculpture – Spring Ride

The young couple is about to embark on the ride of their lives together.

Sometimes the road will be bumpy, sometimes it’ll be a smooth ride.

Challenges will occur – it’s part of marriage…

But no matter how hard it gets: you always stick together.

Through the hardships… AND through the fun parts.

That’s what true love is all about… and that’s exactly what David Gerstein’s excellent work of art tries to convey (rather successfully)

Note: Just remind the bride & groom to look at the road while they’re driving… otherwise, that’s just irresponsible.

Luxury Jewish Wedding Gifts

Jewish wedding gifts fall into 3 categories:

  1. Nice wedding gifts
  2. Great wedding gifts
  3. Exceptional wedding gifts

Most guests get couples the 1st kind.

Fewer guests get the 2nd kind.

And only a select few close friends & family members get the 3rd kind.

In this section – we’ll focus exclusively on the latter.

I have to warn you – this section isn’t for everyone. In fact, if you’re not that close to the bride & groom – you might want to skip this section entirely.

But if…

  • You’re counting the days until the big day and are excited as the happy couple standing under the Chuppah (if not more).
  • You don’t mind spending a little extra on an unforgettable, high-end Jewish wedding gift the couple will always remember.
  • You’re planning to carry tissues with you to the Chuppah.

Then pay attention: this is the section you’ve been waiting for.

Nadav Art Sterling Silver Shabbat Candlesticks

Top Luxury Gift
Nadav Art Sterling Silver Shabbat Candlesticks

It’s a very good idea to help the young couple with items they need for their new home. There’s no doubt about that.

And even though every Jewish couple needs a pair of Shabbat candlesticks, that’s no reason (or at least not the only reason) to get them Nadav Art’s fairly expensive candlesticks.

“Regular” Shabbat candlesticks can do that just as well.

So why invest in such an expensive gift?

Because you’re not getting them just any pair of Shabbat candlesticks. You’re getting them an extraordinary keepsake designed by Nadav Art – one of the top contemporary Jewish art studios in Jerusalem.

A decorative keepsake they can display 7 days a week, not just on Shabbat.

A keepsake that’ll remind them of their wedding night for years and years to come.

That’s why.

Just like candlesticks – a Challah board is an essential item in every Jewish kitchen.

So why mention it in the luxury gifts section? Why not put just put it in the “Jewish Household Items” section?

As you probably figured out by now –  this isn’t a regular Challah board.

It’s made out of genuine Jerusalem stone – the same stones you see when you walk around the streets of Jerusalem (including the Western Wall).

Let’s face it: it’s not very often you get to perform Hamotzi on such a beautiful and meaningful Challah board.

Unless you’re lucky enough to have one of these remarkable Challah boards in your own kitchen.

Funniest Wedding Gift

Yep, they’re indeed Mr. & Mrs.

And as newlyweds, they’ll probably be spending some quality time in the kitchen together, so might as well do it with a pinch of humor.

King Beer Queen Wine Glasses

King Beer Queen Wine Glasses

A wedding gift for cool, young couples…that is if they have a sense of humor.

That doesn’t mean the groom has to stick to the beer glass and the bride to the wine glass.

No…

They can share their glasses with each other. Because they’re in love! 

(then the wife can call her husband a queen… so what!)

“Honey, stop wearing my bathrobe! It’s mine!”

What About Money?

You went through all of these gifts, and still haven’t found “the one”? (I seriously doubt that, though)

Don’t worry, there’s a plan B: money.

If you don’t know the couple very well, or you don’t want to take any chances with a gift they won’t like – you can always give the couple a cash gift in multiples of $18. I assure you – every young couple likes needs cash!

In fact, in some countries (such as Israel) – money is the preferred gift etiquette.

Tip: Gifts are considered a big no-no in Israeli weddings. In Israel, cash is your friend.

Conclusion

Phew, this was a jam-packed gift guide, filled with some pretty unique Jewish wedding gift ideas, wouldn’t you agree?

I hope you picked a Jewish wedding present you’re proud of.

Now, all that’s left for you is to give them a nice “L’chayim” blessing, say “Cheese” to the camera and dance on a chair.

Sounds like fun! 

Mazel tov 🙂

      Hey Nathan,

      We don’t currently focus on Messianic couples… but we might do so in the future. Stay tuned 🙂

    Thanks for this. In my opinion sticking with gifts for the Shabbos table is always a safe bet. If you think about it, getting set up for Shabbos can cost a whole lot. Also, if the couple eats by family and friends for most of the first year or so, by the time they need to outfit their Shabbos table, they might not be in the best financial situation (i.e. newlywed funds dried up).

      Glad you liked it Ben. I agree – gifts for the Shabbat table is always needed in a new Jewish household. Much better than gifts that are destined to “collect dust”
