Groom's gift question...

my FH does not wear a watch and does not want one for a wedding gift.. so that eliminates the most popular gift to give..

he is a huuuuge mets fan and his favorite met of all time is edgardo alfonzo.. so i was thinking of getting him an autographed baseball as a gift.. I want to personalize it somehow -- make it special as a wedding gift.. ( apart from getting him to sign the ball with 'congrats erika and chris xoxo edgardo) -- although i really wish i could do that lol

any ideas??

Re: Groom's gift question...

Are they still selling bricks for outside the stadium? Maybe you can get one of those?

My fiance isnt a cuff link person either, but I figured this is something that he will keep for a long time (as a memento of the stadium/our wedding day...and if he ever needs cuff links he will have them!!)

I will send you the website I found it on...there are also lots of coupon codes to use when you buy it...I used a good one and saved some money...

Re: Groom's gift question...

You can get a signed ball and one of those cases to put the ball in and get it personalized. Maybe a small plaque that can be attached to it with your names and wedding date. I dont know where you can do that though maybe at a trophy store or a printer. i will do a search and ask around and see what I can find for you.
They have a ball signed by alfonzo on e-bay
Here is the link, if it doesnt work just do a search and it should come up

My FH wouldn't like it because he would be tooo concerned (aka jealous) about who took the pictures.. plus I am too shy to show off my thunderous thighs
