What to get for the Newly Weds?

What do newly weds REALLY want for wedding presents?

I asked 6 couples who got married last year on what they really wanted/needed verses what they received as wedding presents. Which ones were the most useful and exciting, and which ones ended up returned or re-gifted. Heres what they said:

1. CASH. While its nice to put allot of thought into a gift instead of getting a generic card with some dough inside… Marriage usually means that the couple is just starting out on their own. And some extra money goes a long way! "I remember being so stressed out after our wedding because I wasn't sure how we would be able to pay rent after all the unexpected last minute wedding expenses. But my stress slowly melted away as we opened card after card from our well wishing friends and found enough money to pay off some things we desperately needed."
2. KITCHEN APPLIANCES. "While most of the stuff we got was the cheaper Wal-Mart stuff, having a toaster, coffee maker, crock pot, can opener, blender, we even got a microwave. Those helped kick off my kitchen and last me until I could afford to upgrade in a few years. Defiantly my favorite things."
3. BED SET. Having a nice matching bed set (or two) is SO nice. Not something a lot of people think to give as a gift- but something everyone needs or would enjoy. 
4. BATHROOM SET. You can NEVER have enough Fluffy Bath Towels. And soap dispensers, tooth brush holders, even a cute shower curtain- those are things newly weds who are barley out on their own will appreciate.
5. ELECTRIC CANDELS AND TWIN WINE GLASSES "Its the first thing we used, we took it on our honeymoon and had a toast in the candle light."

A few things that made it into the "What am I supposed to do with this?" List:

1. Laundry Soap and other cleaners. 
2. Mixed Match Tuppa Wear
3. Books. Especially Cookbooks
4. Hangers…?
