Gift for the groom

kelleydance

Does anyone have any new and fun or exciting ideas for a wedding present to my fiancé? I'm at a loss coming up with anything. Everything I think of I feel like benefits him and me, and I want it to be something only for him!!

Boudoir pictures!

Ditto wiwi. I did boudoir for FI, gave him a photobook of the pictures and a CD and he loved it! He looks at the pictures all the time too, especially when we're not together since he's in the military. I also enjoyed taking them, it was quite fun!

The pics mentioned above are always a winner if you're comfortable with that. Eventually I think it might be an anniversary present for DH. As far as his gift that I got him prior to the wedding. . . nerf guns

hahaha nerf guns. I agree on "b-pics" they're special and intimate. take oen of you in one of his fave shirts or a work shirt, etc. 

You don't even have to pay money to get them done... just DIY them :]

Ditto boudoir photos, it was so much fun doing them (even though I was super nervous leading up to it) and DH loves his book. Great private gift to your new husband.

I'm getting my groom a personalized Giants Jersey with his HS number on it. Other than the photos (which is a fab idea too!) thats the only thing I could think of that he would like/use!

Maybe I am a lame wad (bringin it back) but I got FI a personalized weatherman.  He has wanted one for awhile, and now he has one with his name on it.   Fun and just for him.  (altough I will probably borrow it at some point )

This is what I'm doing for FI if he can leave me alone long enough to do them!  Probably will have to do it on a night he plays games online or something, I'll have 4 solid hours to take the shots so I figure that's enough time to DIY.

They don't have to be like magazine shots though, I'm going to be artistic with mine.

Thanks for all the ideas!!!! Y'all are wonderful!

Yeah, I wanted to do b-pics, but really didn't have the money, so since FI went to art school and took a bunch of photography classes and is really good with the camera, I'm going to let him take his own b-pics on the honeymoon

I'm getting my FI a real 1981 Ms. Pacman arcade game and putting a picture of it in his card
