Silver Cross Necklace

• One touching gift you can give is a necklace with a small silver cross on it. This can be something she can keep and treasure for years to come. If the bridal shower is given far enough in advance, she can even work it into her plans for her overall bridal ensemble. However, if the necklace is the gift the groom gives to the bride on the day of the wedding, he should make it clear she does not have to wear it that day, as it might not work with the clothes and accessories she has planned.
  
  

Christian Music CDs

• If the bride loves Christian music and has a favorite group, you can get her a collection of all their CDs. Of course, since you want to avoid getting her something she already has, try to find out (surreptitiously if possible) what CDs she already owns.
  
  

Family Bible

• If you happen to be from the groom's side of the family, a generous and touching gift you can give to the bride is one of your family's Bibles. This will be especially moving if your family maintains the old tradition of keeping family names, births and marriages listed in the back of the Bible. This will serve as a way of welcoming her to the family.
  
  

Holy Land Honeymoon

• If your whole family would like to get together and give the bride (and the groom as well) a special gift, consider a honeymoon trip to the Holy Land. While this will be an expensive gift, it will also be one the bride will treasure for the rest of her life.
