Re: HELP!!!!!

if she's a wine drinker, you can make her a wine basket .... or a 'wedding survival kit' (or HM survival kit)

i like the ligerie idea from above too

LOVE the idea of a Channa plaque!!

Maybe a gift basket with wine or coffee and teas? Maybe baking mixes? You can do pancake batter, cake batter, cupcake, cookie, etc!

Re: HELP!!!!!

A spa gift card always goes a long way and tell her that she should use it before big day to decompress from the wedding stress. Maybe a VS silk robe to complement it? Or, depending on budget, his and her couples massage...

Or, if you know where the honeymoon will be, maybe a saddle purse by an upscale brand for travel...something for her.

Or, a charm bracelet with both their initials? And room to add more, when their family grows...

If you know that they want to eventually buy a flat screen or a grill for their home, get a gift card for the appropraote store - Lowe's, Best Buy.

Or, a puppy!!!!

Hope this helps!

p.s. - dont get her a puppy, lol!

Re: HELP!!!!!

I'd get her some cooking stuff (is there anything left on the registry?) and build a little basket around it. Like, if there is a pizza pan on the registry, get a rolling pin, pizza cookbook, thing to slide it in the oven with, etc. Or, if there is baking stuff, make her a baking basket around the few items. HTH

Re: HELP!!!!!

I was gonna say the wine basket... with beautiful glasses and charms and a couple kinds of wine

And I love the honeymoon basket idea too!

Re: HELP!!!!!

I would buy a few little things and then give a gift card as the big gift. I like the idea someone had of a vase and then putting the card in that. Maybe a wine carrying case for a picnic? The one that has two glasses, napkins and a wine opener. You could get that and a bottle of wine with a gift card.
