June may be the month for weddings, but it seems like someone we know is getting married every other week, which means there are a lot of gift registries to wade through. Instead of working off the couple’s pre-chosen list of mixers and Bone China, how about you gift the original manuscript for Here Comes the Bride? That’s right, the super old Richard Wagner tune that was originally titled Bridal Chorus is on sale through Moments in Time for $3.6 million. The piece was written as part of Wagner’s Lohengrin opera in 1850, but skyrocketed in popularity when Princess Victoria walked down the aisle to it in 1858. Give someone this and you’re basically gift wrapping marital bliss—if they divorce though, we recommend getting it back.
