My dad is not in the picture, I am having my step dad walk me down the aisle with my grandfather. I want to get something really special for my step dad though. Him and my mom got married last year so he hasn't been around forever but acts like he has. He is amazing. I want to have something to show him how much he really means, other than walking me down the aisle of course. Any suggestions?

Walking you down the aisle is a pretty big deal I think. But you could also ask him to make a speech (doesn't the father of the bride generally make a speech) or if you're making a speech, you can personally thank him for everything he's done for you.

I think getting him one of those picture frames that has the definition of Dad, or a poem about a father in it, and then a picture of you two, would be an amazing acknowledgement of how much he means to you.

I know as a step-mom I am so touched by things that acknowledge how much I mean to him.

I have a StepDad who is more like my Father. Well I call him Dad.

I think walking you down and giving you away is an honor in itself! Its a HUGE deal! =)

Or maybe by listing him as your "Father" not your stepfather.

!Oh or what about one of those Father of the Bride Hankies

This is sooo special- My father in law is my DAD now :)

I agree that asking him to walk you down the isle is HUGE! Maybe take him and your mom out for a nice meal. Sounds like he loves just spending time with his new found daughter :)
