What are you giving your FI on Wedding Day?

I know that brides and grooms sometimes send gifts to each other. I am thinking about getting my FI a sports team jersey with his name on the back. It's something he'd never expect, and would definitely confirm that he is marrying the right person! Ha!

    I had planned long ago to make him cuff links with little four-leaf clovers in them and his parents were helping me scout for tiny ones, but I've scratched that idea due to time. I was then going to get him a case with quality poker chips but haven't gotten around to it. Finally, last week we talked about it and decided that neither of us is going to get the other anything and agreed to stick to it. We have enough stress without trying to figure out something and are bleeding money as it is. :)

    nekky pictures!

    my H had no idea what wedding gifts were...until i told him they existed (i wanted to make sure i got something!!!) his idea of a gift to me was our wedding night hotel (at salish lodge) + couples massage.... i guess that counts, sort of. it was the thought that counts.

    I'm going to sing an Italian aria for him at our reception.  I was classically trained, but somehow developed horrid stage fright so he's never heard me sing... ever.  I'm hoping that I'll be able to figure out a way to get over it before the wedding, lol.  Just thinking about it makes my hands get all clammy!!

    LMAO

    Just got the b-pic book from Jenny a week ago and since I will be staying at a hotel the couple nights before the wedding, I will leave it wrapped up under his pillow the day I leave the house for the hotel.

    Tygirl- I just told Jenny what pics I wanted her to make my book out of. Do you love your book? What size did you get? How long did the process take? TIA

    Carrie- i love the shirts. Cute idea!

    Trisha - I think it only took a couple weeks for the book to be finished once I decided.  I love it!!  I got the 8x8.  Trying to find a nice 9x9x1 box to put it in and having the hardest time!!!

    I too am doing B-pics with Jenny and am thinking about getting him maybe fun cufflinks or some cigars for the wedding day... (something he can share - I would really like him to not share the b-pics book!)
