I want to get my Dad something special, that will be meaningful, and I can't find anything! Do you Engaged Bees have any ideas? Married Bees... what did you get for your Dads?

Thanks for the help!

Find a great picture of you and your Dad together when you were a little girl.

Have it enlarged and framed for him.

Print out the Lyrics to "Daddy's Little girl" and attach them to the back of the frame.

Wrap up a copy of Michael Buble's CD and us it as a tag for the main gift.

@julies1949 That's a great idea! Thanks so much!

@cameronwedding I was thinking of that same thing, but he just got a new watch, so... lol Thanks for the idea though!

I'm glad you guys responded... I always post things, and hardly anyone responds! I don't know how some people get like 142 comments! :P

Hi! I gave my Dad a framed photo mat designed with the lyrics of the song we danced together to at my wedding~ "You're My Hero" by Teresa James (beautiful song!). Before the wedding, I put a photo of us from when I was a kid, then after the wedding, we changed the photo to a special one of us dancing together at the wedding. I actually just started an Etsy shop for these mats since it was such a big hit with my family and friends. Check it out and let me know if I can help!

This isn't for everyone, but since my parents have everything and said they didn't even want a gift, I got them an "experience"...namely, skydiving tickets and a DVD of their descent. :)

I asked them first if they would ever do it, so I knew it wasn't out of the question.

Anyway, not too romantic, but definitely something they'll remember forever :)
