This stemless "Sister" wine glass is intentionally colored with shades of pink to represent kindness and sisterhood. It even comes with a poetry card that expresses why she's worth celebrating.

If you're not sure what to get your sister for her wedding, shop her registry. She and her partner spent time thoughtfully curating their wish list, so you know they'll appreciate anything you pick from it. That said, there are ways to add a sentimental touch to classic registry picks. For instance, if they're asking for a cast-iron Dutch oven, this one is uniquely shaped like a heart and colored a vibrant red. It'll remind your sister how much she is loved every time she uses it. (And yes, Le Creuset is worth it.)
