Something for the Groom?

I need ideas for gifts to give my soon to be husband on our wedding day! I was going to get him an engraved pocket watch or a nice wallet with a monogram metal letter. I feel like these are sooooo generic. 

I want to do something unique and fun!

A lot of people I know did Boudoir photo shoots...what are your thoughts on this?

Love the Boudoir picture idea!!  If I weren't shy and kinda hating my body I would broach the subject with my photog! 

My gift for the groom is his groom's cake, he doesn't know about it and it's in the shape of his favorite NFL team.  We decided our gifts should be used to enhnce the wedding day instead of something fancy and generic like you mention above.

I'm going to do the boudoir photo shoot. I can't wait! I've always wanted to do them anyway, and I know my FI will love them.

I think if you put your mind to it, you could come up with something that is meaningful and personal for him.

My hubby doesn't wear a watch, but if he did I would have purchased him a nice watch and have the back engraved.

You could come up with a bunch of fun stuff that has meaning to the two of you and isn't necessarily something to "keep" as in a keepsake. Use your imagination..........ticket stubs from an event you went to, attached to scrapbook paper or in an album, with words like "you are just the ticket for me".......you get the idea.

A nice photo album or scrap book of pictures and special events can be meaningful. One of the first gifts my hubby gave me when we were dating was a nice picture of us taken on one of our trips, in a silver frame. While not a show stopper as a wedding gift, it's along the lines of boudior pics, but maybe less intrusive for you to do?

I'm getting my FI personalized cufflinks from Etsy

Glad to see that others like the boudoir shoot. If I loose the weight that I have planned to loose, then i will do that (getting there) nut i also like the option of a photo in a nice frame he would like that.

hopefully i can find a good watch for him i think he would enjoy that too.

i scrapbook 24/7...lol i think hes had enough of that!

Yep, I am doing the Boudoir picture as well. They seem to be the new thing. I am shy but I have a long time friend that is a photographer and my MOH is going with me. You could always have a girl take them for you too. I'm giving them to my FH on the day. Delivered to him by my MOH.
