Personalized items
You could give the couple personal items like photo albums, pillows and pillow cases, photo frames, wedding plates, etc. There are many companies specializing in personalizing different things, so for sure you wouldn’t have a hard time looking.

It can be a lot of fun giving gifts if you know the bride and groom. Most of us only get married once, so why not give a gift that is useful as well?
