Well I am getting my FH cuff links. ITs something he would never buy, doesnt won but I think look so sharp when worn with a suit. Do I think hell love them, no but I was also thinking of getting him a hockey Jersey something I KNOW hell love.

He also would never think to get me anything on our wedding day so i have to kinda give hints.. What I would like is a nice peice of jewlery.

FH has been eyeing this black face movado for about 3 years now... i think that this would warrant me buying it

we have no money to buy each other gifts! Our bank accounts are dwindling with all the money and HM stuff.

If I did have money, I would buy him a watch

it's not required. i don't think fh and I are doing this but I am getting him a groom's cake (don't really know if it counts as a gift though!).

My FH is soo into his car... He has a 98 Mustang GT convertible and he refuses to upgrade or try a different car out! But anyway, because he loves it so much I am buying him a pioneer in-dash DVD player with navigation.. He wants it.. Not much of a traditional wedding gift, but it will make him happy.

I'm still up in the air of what I want to get him, but I want it to be something that lasts forever. I already got him EVERYTHING he'll ever want from the past holidays / BDs... sooo... I don't know. I'm still lost too, and since we're paying for most of the wedding, we don't have much money either. I sorta hinted that I want this oil painting done that my photographer does ... of our fave pic of the wedding. Yes, jewlery would be nice, but he bought me sooo much already, I would loove to have that huge oil painting and hang abouve our fireplace...which we don't have yet LOL. :) I'm verry sybolic so I'd have to get something to last forever...like our love.

Re: BRIDE/GROOM Gifts

Our rings are our gifts to each other and thats all we need .Personally we cant afford anything since we are paying for our own wedding. Instead we are planning a 1 year anniversary vacation... a mini HM together. We personally prefer sharing time together than a 'thing'. For birthdays we dont buy gifts instead we surprise each other with a weekend vacation somewhere. Its so fun you just pack a bag but you never know where you are going :)

If you are looking at purchasing a gift thoughI think the watch idea is good one and can be engraved with something really sweet. 'Love is timeless' or something
