Five Star Gift Ideas

For your friend who loves poetry slams and spoken word performances, there are several meaningful and personal gift ideas that you can consider for their wedding. These suggestions aim to celebrate their passion for poetry and create memorable moments for them to cherish on their special day and beyond.

1. Custom Poetry Book: Create a personalized poetry book for the couple filled with their favorite poems or even original pieces. You can include poems from renowned slam poets or pieces that inspired them personally. This unique and sentimental gift will serve as a reminder of their shared love for this art form and the beginning of their journey together.

2. Poetry Slam Tickets: Find upcoming poetry slam events in their area and gift them with tickets to attend. This will not only provide an opportunity for them to enjoy their favorite form of art but also create a memorable experience they can share as a newlywed couple. Consider looking for events featuring their favorite poets or competitions that encourage audience participation, as this will amplify the experience.

3. Spoken Word Performance: Arranging a surprise live spoken word performance dedicated to the couple at their wedding reception or during a private moment would undoubtedly be a unique and heartwarming gift. You can contact a local poet or spoken word artist who specializes in wedding performances and collaborate with them to create a personalized piece that celebrates the couple's love story.

4. Poetry Workshop or Class: If your friend has expressed an interest in or desire to participate in poetry slams themselves, consider gifting them a workshop or class focused on poetry and spoken word. This gift will provide them with an opportunity to enhance their skills, connect with like-minded individuals, and potentially even perform their own piece someday.

5. Poetry Journal or Writing Kit: Inspire your friend to embark on their own poetic journey by gifting them a beautiful poetry journal or a writing kit. Fill the journal with inspirational quotes, writing prompts, and resources that can help them explore and express themselves through poetry. A writing kit can include high-quality pens, colored markers, sticky notes, and a book of poetic techniques to fuel their creativity.

6. Personalized Poetry Slam Video: Collaborate with friends and family to create a personalized video in which they recite poems that are special to the couple. You can also encourage them to write and perform their own heartfelt pieces dedicated to the newlyweds. This gift will be a cherished keepsake, capturing the essence of their love and the support they have from their loved ones.

Remember, the most important aspect of selecting a gift for your friend is to recognize and celebrate their passion. By choosing a gift that aligns with their love for poetry slams and spoken word performances, you are offering a truly personalized and meaningful present that they will treasure for a lifetime.

“This was such a beautiful gift for my son and his wife for the day they married. My only problem was I left it in the cart where I tried to buy a frame and they never got to see it. I have to order another one, it was too perfect of a gift 🎁👍❤️”
