Help!! It's 2 weeks until my wedding and I still don't have anything for FH to give him as a gift. I really didn't want to exchange anything, but he keeps saying he has a really special gift for me that he wants to give me! That adds even more pressure. I don't want to spend more than $100, and I don't want to give him a watch or cuff links. I was hoping to give him something sentimental, but I can't think of anything
Thank you in advance!!

Re: Need a Groom's Gift Idea!!!!!!!!!
This is prob not exactly what you are thinking about but I plan on sending FH on the day of a basket or something with a nice liquor of some sort with little shot glasses engraved with our date and a little note that says something like 'Last shot of freedom for you and your guys to enjoy'
I will prob put some other things in there too. Most likely a watch that he wants but that can get pricey.
Would he like a flask?? You could do that and have it engraved.
Sorry I cant be of more help. I s**k at buy FH gifts cuz he has wierd taste for a guy

That is very creative! He doesn't really drink, so I like the idea of some kind of basket, just not sure with what in it. Does anyone else have some ideas? I don't want to do a watch or cufflinks.

Re: Need a Groom's Gift Idea!!!!!!!!!
you can put together an album for him on shutterfly. that is what i am doing for FH since we have TONS of pictures, from the 7plus years of our relationship. I also scanned in to the computer old letters we wrote to each other, old ticket stubs, and other things i have saved throughout the years (i wanted to originally do a scrapbook but i knew that would take WAY longer since most of my pics are on the computer) i ended up having to scan all the 'early on' pics though since we didnt have digital cameras back then. It's really easy to do if you upload all your pics to shutterfly, and definately sentimental. depending on how many pages you do it should be under $100. I am having 100 pages and i think mine is coming to close to $200, but you can definately have half the amout of pages and still fit in TONS of pics.

also, i know you need it soon, but you can probably expidite the shipping. There is even an option to have them fill the pages for you randomly so all you would have to do is upload the pictures. that would take a lot less time.

Oooooo, I love that, thanks. The only problem is that most of my older pics are at my parents house in NY, so I don't think I'll be able to get them in time (I live in VA). I'm going to look into it anyway though. This is what I get for waiting until the last minute.

Re: Need a Groom's Gift Idea!!!!!!!!!
Kell...is there anything he has been eyeing for the place??
Does he eventually want to have like a man's room or pool room that you could maybe get some sort of sign for it???

You know Chrissy, that's a really good idea. I hadn't even thought about something for the house. I am going to spend tonight thinking about that. Thanks for the good idea! Can't wait to see you in 2 weeks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Anytime....I loved the book idea too, but don't drive yourself crazy or stress yourself out trying to do that.... I can't wait either. When do you actually get up here???? Prism, Krystal, and I are just actually figuring out what time we're leaving, who's driving, and all that fun stuff :)

Both great ideas! He actually just bought himself a coach wallet a few months ago, but the stock idea is super awesome. He wants to start investing, so that would be a nice way to start
