Subscription boxes as gifts?!

As long as the boxes contain stuff that they'll actually like and use, I think that's a cool idea. Which subscription are you thinking of doing?

I think a subscription box to something they are interested in would be an awesome gift! Subscription boxes are one of those things that a lot of people don’t want to gamble their money on, but love receiving when they are paid for by someone else LOL
We received a subscription box as a gift last year- they were boxes filled with snacks from all over the world, and each month featured a different location. We had no idea how much we would end up enjoying it! We would get so excited when a new one would show up at the door each month

If it's something they would enjoy and use then go for it.

One of the boxes we were looking at comes with soda water, but then some of the other ones have more Japanese snacks from Osaka.


his youngest brother really enjoys smoking weed. Lol, my fiancé and I personally do not smoke at all And while we may be against it personally, it is something that his brother does enjoy. He’s not a “pothead” or anything, like he has a really good job and stuff lol but he just really likes smoking weed, so we were going to get him a weed subscription box hahaha.
His other brother… We don’t even know if he will make it to the wedding. Let’s just leave it at that haha

We then have our officiant who is one of our best friends, and he’s really into making needs and whiskeys, so we were thinking about getting him a whiskey subscription.
Our other two friends who are married will be performing our first song acoustically. They also make wine and so we were going to get them Winc which is a four month subscription for Wine. For this one, we could either pick flavors for them and it will just show up in their mail each month, or we could get them a gift card and they would go onto the website and select the flavors on their own… We have a relatively good idea of what flavors they like, but I don’t know what I should do with this.

View Quoted Comment I know! I get super excited every time my subscription box comes in the mail each month!

View Quoted Comment It’s probably even more fun/appreciated during this whole pandemic situation, with people being stuck at home! When ours ran out, we were so disappointed that first month. So we resubscribed for another year LOL

I think those gifts sounds fantastic and a perfect balance of "all getting the same thing" and "tailor to their individual interests".
