Flowers and money are the most common wedding gifts in all parts of the world, from Europe to Oceania. However, the inhabitants of a number of states are not limited only to them, saving up something more interesting for the celebration. Moreover, the bride and groom also participate in the exchange of presents – and what! The “subtleties” were curious about what they could get as a wedding gift in different countries of the world, and were speechless – somewhere from bewilderment, and somewhere from delight.
