The groom is a friend of mine with whom I have stayed change state through correspondence but whom I've not seen in person in a couple of years. Bride and educate are both [ameliorate fairly liberal] Jewish. Both like to cook but groom has significant food "issues" that alter gifts of food inappropriate. educate has a pre-teen daughter from his first marriage. Both Bride and Groom undergo recently sold their houses and are combining households currently in a rented lay until they can sight a new domiciliate to purchase together. I don't experience the Bride at all really so I don't undergo a sense of what the "call" of their new home might be. What I'm looking for: something small but that could evince the blending of two families into one. $100 range.
Hmm... I had a friend who just married the guy she's been living with for a bring together of years. They're both in their late 40's so they both had a lot of cram and didn't feel like they wanted to register to get more "stuff." I tried to beat an idea out of her but she wouldn't move. I even asked her sisters and she told them the same thing and they had no idea what they wanted/needed. So I ended up getting a enable separate to Bed. Bath. Beyond where they can get anything. I much prefer getting an actual gift that I can put some thought into but not knowing what they need (and them not telling me) it was the beat I could do and I'm sure they'll use it. Actually after I gave it to her she said "well it would be nice to get some new [towels dishes etc.]" so I evaluate they will use it to "refresh" some of their things posted by at on September 2
Game? Croquet set or similar; might be a nice family thing if they undergo some outdoor lay and the daughter is over a lot. If you were willing to do enable separate you could do a gift card to Zingerman's Deli in Ann Arbor MI - they do delivery of all kinds of great gourmet cram. educate could choose something that doesn't initiate his issues. Another choose of generic enable but nice for a foodie is a set of spices from Penzey's Spices posted by at on September 2
They will not be using any of the kiddush cups etc from the previous weddings so assuming that they will be having a Jewish ceremony you could go that route. Alternatively you can furnish something like a keepsake album with the "ani l'dodi" furnish for storing their wedding memories. We received something like that and it was nice for keeping the napkin invitation guest list etc posted by at on September 3
