No. Because I think it really strange and weird. If I want to give money I will give it with cash, not Bitcoin or Credit Card. But I'm not against people who give Bitcoins as their wedding gift. I just don't like it. I like Bitcoin but I don't like it as a wedding gift.  |

Bitcoin mining is now a specialized and very risky industry, just like gold mining. Amateur miners are unlikely to make much money, and may even lose money. Bitcoin is much more than just mining, though!

The same question is been asked before this might have to be the same thread. I would have no problem giving the newly weds Bitcoin later on but I would not give it as an official wedding gift, that's just nowhere near this type of thing that seems like a good gift in a romantic sense.
It is a unique idea and people love to give unique gifts on events like Wedding.

This maybe the gift of the future. For now, many will try to hold on to it. |

It's depend on wedding tradition whenever they want accept bitcoin or not since bitcoin can be own for money or investation
Let say that bitcoin is the only one digital wedding gift that ever exist on this world

If the couple asked for bitcoin instead of money, I would give them the coins.
But if that would not be the case I would bring whatever is on their wishlist, or the local fiat instead.
When the people are not into bitcoin, I think it would be intrusive to use their wedding for an attempt to bring them in contact with bitcoin.

If couples know about bitcoin then sure i will give them Bitcoin wedding gift.
But it is unique thing that if give them.
Actually, every country celebrate the wedding events with full of traditions.
And our traditions never change then if i give the gift of bitcoin for wedding then my family members may be angry with me.
Because they have no too much knowledge about bitcoin.
Although i like gift of bitcoin in my wedding, if anyone give me.

For a bitcoin wedding gift for now is rather difficult, especially in my area that is still difficult to reach the internet network, but didn't rule out a time if bitcoin already known to the public and familiar to its use, seems can be provide a gift of bitcoin marriage. |

With the places where there is really hard time obtaining internet, I think bitcoin gift is not an ideal gift because they really cannot use it and could not well appreciate it due to no access to internet. Better give some physical alternative gift than bitcoin then. |

For me it would depend on whether the couple already knows about bitcoin or not because I won't turn their wedding gift into a lecture about the value of bitcoin.
Exactly it would not make sense if one of them didnt know what bitcoin is. Maybe if they knew it that was a good idea of a wedding gift because it will help them to especially to their financial needs. |

This idea is so fond, but i guess when time passes by it would be more important than any other gifts. I think it would also be a nice gift not only for wedding, for birthdays or even to successors. This also gives me some ridiculous ideas, and i could also think that it is a nice treasure you can give to someone special in your life.

i don't want to give 1 bitcoin as wedding gift but maybe some amount like 0.01 btc-0.05 btc as a gift because its too expensive for that couple. if bitcoin price is like 2015 then maybe i will considering to give them 1 bitcoin. the other option for is i will use that amount to buy something as a gift. |

Yes, It is..
Bitcoin is one of the most valuable gift you could ever give. In fact common gift values ranging $50 to $100 and a Bitcoin as a gift really put bright smiles to the couples. Instead of giving them heavy bulky item, you wouldn't know what they really need, maybe an new bank account or New house downpayment to move-in or anything more important stuff to have as a start as a family.
Bitcoin is indeed a good gift not only for wedding.

This is a very unique idea and also new I heard. Just imagine when a bride gets bitcoin then they will surely find that confusing. Maybe that does not apply to those who already know bitcoin, but still people who know bitcoin also would be surprised and did not think with the prize he got.

Some tech-savvy wedding-goers are gifting the digital currency to new couples. Honeyfund, a honeymoon registry that allows guests to give cash rather than gifts, has seen more than a dozen customers donate in bitcoin, said chief executive officer and co-founder Sara Margulis. In recent years, more than a dozen customers have chosen to route donations to the site from bitcoin wallets. Zola, a wedding registry website, has had just two cash funds created for bitcoins since 2013, a spokeswoman said. "I would expect it to pop more as millennials come into the wedding age,” Honeyfund’s Margulis said. “It’s something you will do if your friends and family are already into bitcoin. Bitcoin as an retirement plan, bitcoin to secure the future of your kids, and now bitcoin as a wedding gift. Whether or not bitcoin replaces cash in future, it looks like the trend of gifting bitcoin instead of cash at weddings is definitely going to catch up and more wedding registeries would be adding bitcoin as a gifting option. Avoid using a wedding gift "as an opportunity to proselytize a technology you personally believe in, but the recipient could not care less about." People who are not into bitcoin might not appreciate getting a volatile currency as a gift, and might never use it, thus adding it to the list of lost coins, but I think people who are already using bitcoin or would most probably use it in future then bitcoin instead of cash is the apt wedding gift for them. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/would-you-give-bitcoin-as-a-wedding-gift-2017-06-27its great idea, and maybe many people think about this. and even many people do this. i want to give my girl bitcoin too, but the problem she will accept or want to exchange first. |

For those who know bitcoin, it would be a surprised to the married couple to receive it as a gift. And it can be the most valuable gift that that couple will received since they know the value of bitcoin. So I guess it would be better to give it to those who knew bitcoin. Anyways, it would also be a surprised to a couple who has no knowledge that a digital currency exist. It would a good way to promote bitcoin. |

At this moment, to use Bitcoin is essential to know PC really well, so many information you have to know to use BTC.
So, right now.. not everybody can use it. It seems like bitcoin is something strange.
But when bitcoin will accept every shop in the country. It will be as simple gift as fiat money.

Bitcoin is really getting its popularity to many people already and it is just a matter of time that majority of the whole population will have a bitcoin address and have some bitcoins on it. We can already use bitcoin in so many ways and the rest can just be use with ordinary fiat money. |

We already have people giving away vouchers as wedding gift, why should BTC be viewed differently? Anyway to answer the question, personally I wouldn't unless Bitcoin is considered as mainstream by then.

I've given BTC as a wedding gift multiple times.
I print out a paper wallet and provide instructions on how to redeem the private key including which apps to download etc.
I don't really care whether or not the bride/groom become "Bitcoiners" - I just think of it as a cool gift that beats the hell out of a blender or some silverware.
