    Hey ladies,

    Well I am just about 3 weeks out from the wedding and I still haven't found the perfect gift for my groom? So, I'm starting to panic a little bit!

    I would love some recommendations of what you have done, what you are doing, what you would do with unlimited funds, what you would do with a small budget or what you would do if you were being creative and making something....

    Any advice or ideas would be awesome!  I can't wait to see what you all gave or are giving to your grooms!

    I am on a tight budget but I really wanted to buy him the Bulova watch he wanted.  He has no idea I bought it for him and I can't wait to suprise him!

    I am gifting my groom the kitchen aid mixer from our registry.  He has been drooling over it and I figure no one else will buy it.

    custom cufflinks?  I had these map cufflinks made for my hubby from Etsy seller Ann Holman with the map location of where we met and where we were married:

    I'm having custom cufflinks made for my FI - zelda nintendo cartridges (the traditional gold cartridge). The groomsmen are all getting links too - but in the grey cartridges of their favorite games.

    @7SEVNJ9 That is a fabulous idea!

     

    If we were going to exchange gifts...I don't think the FI has a clue about it, I would probably get him a watch that he's been wanting.

    Cufflinks with his initials engraved are they way I was thinking of going before we decided not to give each other gifts.

    I got my groom a digital SLR camera, he LOVED it. Pricey of course but I saw it as an investment.

    I know I have posted this before- I got FI a pearl handled damscus steel knife he always wanted.  He has no idea, and I know it will mean a lot to him.

    I think a good idea would be to get tickets, or some sort of activity to do after the wedding and everything- something else to look forward to!  Or something symbolic of an activity you want to start doing with FI.

    Hi date twin!

    I just bought my husband-to-be cufflinks off of Etsy (she's based in DC) with our first initlas: M&M and our wedding date on the back side 8.7.10.

    Good luck searching and congratulations!

    thanks girls!  My husband really loved them and the quality was fantastic.  I was going to use another seller who sold their cufflinks for much less, but in the end paying the extra price for these was well worth it.  I used Anne Holman (http://www.etsy.com/shop/AnneHolman).  She showed me the maps prior to making them so I was able to aprove them beforehand which was nice.

    thanks for all the ideas ladies... i was thinking of a great watch that i was going to get engraved "love is timeless" and our wedding date.  But I don't think I have time to do that.  Maybe that will be an anniversary gift down the road...

    Any other great gift ideas?
