The morning of my wedding, I arranged it so that it was just me and my 2 best friends getting ready alone for a few hours. They both REALLY appreciated it, and I totally enjoyed being alone with them as we laughed and got ready together. They both wrote me these letters, and we ended up having a huge cry session (BEFORE my makeup was done, which was my request LOL). I know it's nothing major but it just was a very special time to me (and them, too).

a scrapbook of you and her thru the years and make the last few pages blank and put your wedding day memories of you and i. something like that.

My aunt had my Man of Honor decorate our kitchen table with bride and groom mugs and a coffee crumb cake from their favorite bakery. When we got home on Saturday morning, it was all there waiting for us. A very sweet surprise on many levels.

I did this for my sister for her wedding, it was my gift to her basically (cost me a lot but you can do it for less). I had pages for our special occasions - communion, baptism, graduations ... and then christmas shots through out the years ... vacations ... winter pics (snowmans, etc), summer pics (pool) ... she loved it and I love to look at it.

Scrapping is very nice...but we already made her a big scrap book for her shower. I am running out of time and feel so burnt out (1 week). I wish I could think of something and fast. Another problem is all photoalbums of us growing up are at my moms house and I dont have access to get them until I go home in a week. Arghhh.

not sure if there's anything she didn't have time to do, but you could take care of it for her
i decided 2 days before the wedding that i *did* want toasting flutes/cake cutter and we went to LNT (i am a loyal BBB shopper, but we were right near a LNT) and they didnt even carry them! i gave up and decided i would just use the hall's stuff...
but the next day my little sister (who doesnt have a car) somehow went out and bought us a beautiful cake cutter set and toasting flutes (vera wang love knots) and surprised us with it at the RD.
it was very thoughtful and much appreciated -- a wonderful surprise.
it's a little cheesy, but my birthday was the week before our wedding day and one of my BMs got me an 'i love my husband' tee which i ended up wearing on our honeymoon flight.
oh, my sis also got me one of the 'mrs ____ est 8-17-08' hoodies as a shower gift.
Edit: my mom wrote me a long letter and gave it to me right before the ceremony, and it made me cry

My mom put together a treasure chest for me and gave it to me at the RD...it had all these trinkets from my childhood, including my blanket and winnie the pooh bear, and all my medals from swimming etc....she got the mahogany box from Things Remembered.
