Here's the situation: My cousin, a 35 year old male, lives in Chicago. I live in Cleveland. Two weeks ago, he went to the Justice of the Peace with his fiance and they were married. My aunt (his mother) wants to have a reception for him in Ohio because most of my relatives live here. My cousin is a very successful business man in Chicago and has everything he needs. I have no idea what to get them as a gift. I don't know their interests, where they shop, what they like to eat. I'm not very close to my aunt and I'd feel weird asking her for a suggestion. I only want to spend $30-$40. Any gift ideas?

Instead of a gift certificate, you may want to purchase a bottle of champagne. They could enjoy it on their wedding night, honeymoon, or future anniversary.
One of my cousins gave us a very nice bottle of champagne when we got married and we're saving it for our 10th anniversary. It was such a nice gift!

Give them a gift certificate to "Batteries Not Included", an adult toy store. There are a few in the Chicago area. Unless you want to buy something yourself and mail it to them. I think a nice toy would be greatly appreciate it from a newlywed couple.
good luck

Gift cards are always best. That way you cant get the wrong thing. Give them one for amazon.com.. I know a lot of wealthy business people who frequent that site all the time. Hope that helps

Go to an art gallery and purchase a one-of-a-kind piece of hand-blown art glass or pottery. A pretty glass bowl or pottery vase - as long as it's a one-of-a-kind would be a fine gift - especially for someone you don't know very well -

I would give a gift card to somewhere like Target, then they can spend it on their bedroom, bathroom or clothes.

for someone that rich and this budget, you need to look for something symbolical:
memories book/albumn/box...or, if you have a picture of them together, have it painted and frame it.
or a nice good luck charm...a nice bird...a door mat...nice romantic CD...books
