Retro and Vintage Weddings

I need cuff link advice!

Thanks to Robot Cake's cuff link question, I found some cute ones for my fiance! 




I love them because they look vintage and also because I'll be wearing a locket around my neck on the wedding day too.  My locket will carry the engagement photos of my Finnish grandparents (who passed away right after they gave me that locket).  The question is, whose photos do I put inside FIs locket cuff links?  I'd like to give them to him as a surprise and put some meaningful photos in there.

I need your advice!  There are four spots for photos.  Immediately I thought I could put his four grandparents in there, but two of his grandparents haven't really given us any photos of them (and don't seem to have any!)  So then I thought about putting photos of his mom and dad and two sisters... but--as a brother--is that weird to carry photos of your sisters in a locket?

Should I just put photos of the two of us in there? 

What would you do?

Re: I need cuff link advice!

  • ooh hard question I have no clue....how close is he with his sisters? Maybe you can make it a theme of some sort like his four fav things. For example you, his mom, the scouts thing, and the beach (or whatever applies) But really I have no clue if it were me I would probably just put pics of us or two or us two of his family HTH!

    what about one of each parent, one with both sisters,a picture of all of them (if that's even doable) or a  picture with both parents in it and one of the two of you .

  • Those cuffs are awesome. I voted pics of you and FI for the romantic touch.
  • Great cufflinks!  I didn't even know they made cufflink lockets.

    I like the idea of having pictures of the grandparents, but if you don't have good pictures, that would be tough.  So I'm voting for pictures of you and your fiance.
