Summer is here! And so is the season of bridezillas and groom kongs. While the tennis pros are packing up for Wimbledon, many of us have our pens poised and ready to RSVP the annual onslaught of weddings. June and August still top the list as the hottest months (no pun intended) for matrimonial ceremonies and while the special couple may appreciate the irony in a homemade papier-mâché sculpture constructed of abused issues of Bride Magazine and paper plates licked clean after cake testing, why not reward their oh-so-stressful ride on the emotional roller coaster of wedding planning with a gift that not only trumps all of the others on the gift table but, more importantly, lets them know just how much you genuinely appreciate being a part of their special day? |
| To help the couple decompress, let’s talk gifts that spoil them on their honeymoon. The Lacoste Challenge Duffel Bag makes a fine addition to their travel gear with its fully lined interior compartment and zippered pockets for additional storage. I like the sleek look of the PVC and also the adjustable, padded cross-body strap that provides a comfy fit. The CAMELBAK Women`s Charm 50 Oz Backpack and CAMELBAK Lobo 100 Oz Backpack are perfect for keeping the couple hydrated on their first adventure as married folk. The Charm features an S-Curve harness designed with a women-specific fit and the patented Big Bite Valve eliminates leaks. The Lobo model also includes the Antidote system for optimal flow and zero leaks, plus an ultralight harness of 3D mesh with a removable belt. To help them count the minutes they’ve been married or just make sure they don’t miss their flights, consider matching Lacoste watches in a variety of styles. And a new pair of sunglasses like the LACOSTE Men`s L115S Shiny Grey Sunglasses, LACOSTE Women’s Dublin Black Sunglasses will protect their eyes from the damaging sun so they can focus on their fun. |

Nothing says “wedding gift” like something for the new nest and a new pair of Sheex sheets are a perfect fit (all puns intended). Not only do these sheets feel smooth against your skin, but with SLEEP FIT Technology they will also stay put. The breathable fabric provides optimal ventilation and temperature control to keep the newlyweds comfortable. If you like to create gift sets, the Life is Good Joyful Daisy Apron along with the tennis ball timer, ceramic cookie jar, and refrigerator magnet will brighten up their days (and kitchen). For some added fun while guests are around, include the coordinating Tennis Spreader and Tennis Wine Tags. Some dried Tennis-Shaped Pasta continues the theme and makes for a quick meal. Last but not least, don’t forget that good coffee table books can not only add a finishing touch to a room and tell a bit about the people who live there, but also make for great conversation starters when out of town visitors pop in to meet the new Mr. or Mrs. |
| If you’re looking to go all out, take a look at the LOBSTER Elite Freedom Ball Machine. As the saying goes, the couple that plays together stays together and this battery-operated equipment can aid in advancing everyone’s game. It’s programmable for full corner-to-corner random oscillation, and 0 to 50 degree elevation allows for practicing all types of shots. Ball ejection up to 70 miles per hour gives a good workout and makes this an excellent tool for releasing the stress of adjusting to a major life change. But if you’re still unsure of the perfect wedding gift for the newest tennis team, don’t forget that Tennis Express offers gift cards and –even easier – E-Gift Cards in amounts starting at $10 as well! They can be used in our store or online at TennisExpress.com where the couple can shop our Gear Reviews, Special Promos, and Online Clearance Center! |
