Wedding Day Gift

What are you ladies getting your FI for a wedding day gift??  It is my FI dream to play at a Golf Course that has hosted the US Open, so I think I am getting him a 2 round at Torrey Pines.  Any other creative ideas out there?

    I didn't get him a creative or meaningful gift. I got him an iPad. He's currently using it, because he's finishing up his summer semester. I get him meaningful stuff on a semi-regular basis, so I figured just get him something he wants.

    I got him a nice watch that he can even wear on the wedding day. :)
  • I bought him a Tag Heuer watch with diamonds when we went to St. Martin in April. That is his wedding, birthday, flag day, 4th of July and Christmas gift for the next 2 years!

  • I got him an engraved keychain that says my friend, my husband and our wedding date, something that he can carry with him and keep forever.
  • I got him lots of New Glarus beer decor for his man cave. Not very romantic, but something I know he will love and use.
  • FI and I have decided NOT to do wedding gifts for each other.  We have waited a long time to be together and decided that our dream wedding is gift enough for both of us.

  • Because we are Jewish - my wedding gift to him is his "Tallit" (prayer shawl).... however, I drove up to Brooklyn to go to his favorite Judaica store to get it ..... he knows I will be giving him one (tradition) however, he hasn't seen it nor knows where it comes from. 
  • I'll probably give him a bottle of scotch. Although, that may backfire since I know he and his groomsmen will want to drink it ASAP and it'll be gone before the ceremony! But he already has everything, and whenever he wants something new, he buys it. He's tough to shop for.
  • I got fiance a book - that cute love story about the dinosaurs and I will write something nice in it-- and then... i got him cufflinks with a daschund- since we have a mini doxie

  • We agreed to let our rings be our gift. We want to avoid the added financial pressure of finding gift money in our already-strained budget. My original gift idea was a signed New York Yankees baseball. I still have second thoughts...
