Morning Gift

GIFTS

The morning gift is a tradition with ancient roots, and still today it’s a loving and meaningful gesture between newlyweds. But what should you give your bride or groom as a morning gift? The most beautiful gift is the one given with thought.

The Meaning of the Morning Gift

Traditionally, the morning gift is given the morning after the wedding, but today it is just as common to present it on the wedding day. It is also no longer only the bride who receives a gift – the groom is equally included. The gift should reflect you as a couple.

The morning gift is a tradition with deep historical roots. Historically, it served as financial security for the woman should her husband pass away, but today it is primarily a loving gesture between partners.

As early as 1350, the morning gift was written into Swedish law and often consisted of material assets such as land, cottages or livestock. In 1921, when women were granted legal majority at the age of 21 regardless of marital status, the tradition was removed from legislation. Since then, it has evolved into a symbolic gift exchanged between the couple.

From the 18th century onwards, jewellery such as necklaces or lockets containing portraits or locks of hair became popular morning gifts – a tradition that continues to this day. Jewellery in gold, diamonds or pearls is especially appreciated, as it endures over time.

Morning gift

A morning gift, a gift of love and a memory for life. A piece of jewelry in gold or silver, with diamonds, pearls or gemstones. Or maybe a delicate leather bracelet or a pair of cufflinks. At Efva Attling Stockholm we have jewelry suitable as a morning gift for both him and her. Like "Million Stars" with diamonds to match the glitter in your eyes, the bracelet "Love Knot" for the hope that you always will keep together, or the earrings "You and me" because you're now linked together by love. A morning gift can also be a watch - a promise to give each other time, now and forever.
