Wedding Gift Return*
When you receive congratulations from those around you after getting married, it's customary to give a return gift, known as a "nyu祝いギフト" (inner celebration gift).
It's considered good manners to return the gift as soon as possible, ideally within a month. However, when it comes to expressing gratitude to those you don't often meet,
you might find yourself in the situation of thinking,
"I don't know their home address...!" 🏠
This is a common scenario after receiving a gift.
This results in additional effort of contacting them to say, "I want to return the gift, please share your address."
Plus, reaching out may inadvertently make the recipient feel obliged to thank you, which can create a sense of awkwardness, and some kind-hearted individuals may insist that a return gift is not necessary, making it a bit of a mixed feeling...!
(I tend to feel this way 😂)
Gifts That Can Be Sent Without Knowing the Address!
That's why the existence of 【gifts that can be sent without knowing the recipient's address】 is so helpful and convenient!*
If you connect via LINE, various social media DM, email, or SMS, you can send gifts online and have them received.
This is essentially an e-gift, similar to LINE GIFT.
There’s no need to ask for or provide an address, which aligns with modern times.
Experience-Based Gifts Are Likely to Be Appreciated*
While there are plenty of e-gift services and items available if you look around, I particularly recommend the social catalog gift from Sou Experience, which features experience-based gifts for your return gift.
Instead of just sending a catalog of pre-made products,
Sou Experience stands out with its wealth of options that allow the recipient to actually visit places or enjoy creating things.
For example, here are some of their offerings*
🎁 Personalized Cosmetic Gift 🎁
An e-gift where you can create customized cosmetics. (8,470 yen)
The recipient can choose from items like hair care, skincare, perfumes, bath conditions, and smoothies. By answering a few questions...
A perfectly customized cosmetic will be created based on their requests and concerns.*
It’s refreshing just to have a customized cosmetic made for you.
Friends who love beauty, as well as those who usually stick to simple care, will surely be delighted.
By the way, I gave this to my mother and made an iPhone cover with a picture of her dog.
She was overjoyed!♡
🎁 Cafe Ticket 🎁
An e-gift that allows you to choose your favorite stylish cafe from a selection of fashionable cafes in major areas nationwide, where you can enjoy a meal or drinks. (3,850 yen)
Isn't a cafe-hopping gift wonderful?
You can choose from about 100 cafes, including "SHIBUYA CHEESE STAND," a fresh cheese specialty store in Shibuya, and "Cafe Slow," which focuses on organic offerings in Kokubunji, helping you discover new and exciting places you've never heard of or wanted to try♩
An e-gift that allows you to order your favorite flower arrangements (bouquets or potted plants) from a florist. (8,690 yen)
Flowers are lovely to give as gifts, but choosing them yourself can be difficult. The recipient's preferences and the ambiance of their home can vary greatly.
However, with a flower gift, you can simply let the recipient choose their favorite flowers!
Since flowers are perishable, it’s also wonderful that the timing of delivery can be adjusted with the recipient.
We’ve introduced experience-based e-gifts that can be sent without knowing the recipient's address via LINE or social media DMs.
When you think about it, e-gifts can be sent even without knowing the name of the person. (You can even send gifts to people you connected with on hobby accounts or wedding accounts, which is amazing...!)
