Wedding gift ideas for wealthy couple?

[iJenny]

So my best childhood friend (we've kept in close touch) Shauna is getting married at the end of June in Mexico. Because of finances and such (kids, job, etc) I can't attend, but she is having a bridal shower in two weeks and I want to take a gift since I can't be at the wedding.
Here's the problem.... her and fiance are very wealthy. They have everything they could possibly need to start their new life together. What do you get someone who has everything? They're not registered anywhere (cuz they have everything already) and I just can't think of anything to get them!! And my budget is pretty tight. Probably $50 or less.
So, anyone have any stellar ideas?

P.S. Don't bother suggesting that I make something scrapbookelated. She's just simply not the kind of person that values that kind of gift or even really wants one, kwim?

I always though something personalized is always really cool. Maybe something from Things Remembered (I've had good luck there) or Red Envelope that fits their personalities?

Good luck, it's always tough trying to figure out gifts like that!

I think something with their new monogram would be very nice ....
Monogram Soaps

or
Monogram Candles

What about tickets to an event that you think that they would enjoy? We got tickets to cirque du soleil as a wedding present, and loved it!

If they are in involved in any charity work or feel passionately about a particular cause, you could make a donation to that charity in their name in honor of their wedding.

Gift cards are always a great gift...like to Blockbuster or to the local movie theater or even a gas card!! That way you can scrap the card that it goes into to add a personal touch!

How about a charitable donation in their name?

one of my coworkers daughters got married and one of the girls got her wedding invitation framed...like your friend they were very wealthy and the registry was out of this world....

i like the charitable donation. that way, they know you cared and truly thought about their gift.

If there's going to be lot of friends that can't go or can't afford big presents, why don't you pool your money all together, get a great present, take a photo of the bunch of you and all sign the matting for it before framing it.

I agree with the charitable donation... they would probably appreciate that!

i love things that are monogramed - and would LOVE to get any of the things from here - especially the paperweights, coasters or address labels - or stationary, calling cards, etc ... LOL - i just love their designs ...
