    @Pappy8:  I'm getting my FI a nice watch around $100-$150 & I'll get it engraved. I'm going to have my girls drop hints to him for gift for myself. LOL. Nothing too expensive. Maybe some costume jewelry for the day or something for the honeymoon. Where are you getting married?

    I never thought of getting my future husband-to-be a wedding gift, but it might be something for us both to discuss! Thanks for the idea!

    I love the budoir idea.  I got them made for FI when I was in college, he still loves them.  It will be easy to transport too.  I haven't thought of anything for my FI, I'm sure he'd like more budoir photos.  I wanted to get him an engagement gift but I haven't been working so I will deff spoil him whatever I do for wedding gift!

    I gave him a $$$$ watch, I figured it was fair after all the money he spent on my e-ring. I wanted to give him something tangible he could keep forever. He bought me a tahitian pearl & diamond pendant.

    Our gifts to each other will be the wedding. But we do plan to exchange letters before the ceremony. I really like the idea of having something we can keep and read years from now.

    He got me beautiful 1ct diamond studs. I haven't taken them off since the wedding I love them that much!

    If you are thinking of a rosary you should try

    http://www.rosaryshop.com/

     

    You can custom make a rosary using any style of rosary you want as well as the chain color, the beads color, and cross.

     

    You can make design something truly unique that is just for him.

    Yes! On our wedding day, I bought him lego cufflinks and a pair of rayban sunglasses (to match the sunglasses he bought all his groomsmen, since I watched him lust over them).  He loved the cufflinks and they weren't that expensive at all!

    For you, a boudoir sounds like a great gift! :)

    I bought him cologne and a flask that had a phrase from our recessional song.

    He bought me an ipod, which we also used for the music in place of a dj.

    We set our budget to be $600.

    I bought him cufflinks from Tiffanys and a bottle of Macallen 21 year. He got us Disneyland annual passes. We go every year for our anniversary and we got married on our anniversary :)

    I would get him something meaningful to the both of you and also easy to pack. DH needed cufflinks forever and I found a pair that resembled the shape or our wedding cake. And he loves whiskey and we have been dating since we were 21 so that was the story behind the Maccalen.
