Wedding Guest Gift Guide: Thoughtful Homegrown Favour Ideas for the Modern Indian Celebration

Indian weddings are grand in their scale, emotion and celebration, yet the most meaningful moments often come from small gestures.

Today, modern couples are moving away from mass-produced token trinkets and towards gifts that feel intentional, earthy, conscious and useful—especially when sourced from India’s rising wave of homegrown brands. Below is a curated selection of thoughtful Wedding Guest Gift Guide that celebrate craftsmanship, wellness, indulgence and purpose.
