Good Morning Girlies! So today's QOTD is inspired by my utter loss in trying to think of a groom's gift for FH.....men are so difficult sometimes...so
**Firstly, do you and FH plan on exchanging wedding gifts? And if so, what are you thinking of giving to FH?**
Have a great day ladies!

I would like to exchange gifts, but I'm not sure if we def will. I would like to get FH a nice watch bc I think that's something special that he will always have and wear. Someone once told him that that is the best gift a man can get bc you always wear watches and when you look at it, you'll always remember the special occasion that it was for, so I know FH would love the gift. I'd also like to get it engraved with some cheesy, romantic saying - not sure what yet tho.

I'm not sure about this one. This might end up being our honeymoon! We'll have to see how money is when we get closer!

I'm not sure if we are doing gifts, but techincally, my gift to FI would be my B-Pics and the Grooms Cake.

Sorry to crash, but I got DH an engraved bottle of Johnnie Walker Blue. The customer service was great! And DH and his groomsmen really enjoyed it.
I already gave FH his wedding gift WAY early because the Giants were plaing the Raiders and he is a die hard Raider fan. So being that they dont play on the east coast very often that was his wedding present. Got that out of the way woohoo. I have no idea what he will get me as a gift but he def will be gettting me something

I would love to give FH a gift but I don't know if we will exchange because of the cost of everything else. If we do get each other gifts it will probably end up being something we need for our apartment. We don't live together right now so if we're spending money on each other that's what it will probably go to. Either that or maybe we'll do something special when we're on our honeymoon that could count as a gift.

I honestly have no idea when it comes to a keepsake gift for FH. The best thing I can think of at the moment is LA Lakers Tickets since he's a huge Lakers fan and has never been to one of their games! I wanted to get him something he could keep and have forever though...guess i have to keep brainstorming.
I thought my friend got one of the most romantic gifts from her FH at their wedding...they live in NC and have a house with a wrap around porch and on their wedding day...someone delievered a blackberry to her (but that wasn't the gift) and on the screen was a picture of two His and Hers rocking chairs for their porch to sit, enjoy evenings and grow old together...i'm such a sap but i thought that was the cutest thing ever!!! and original!

a nice watch is something that every man can use and needs...plus it's a keepsake especially if you get it engraved....i would think of doing the same except that my father already gave FH a reallllly nice watch and i just wouldnt be able to top that...at least not with my budget hahah

hmm this is tough i have actually thought about this a lot, i want to get him a watch, but he has a nice one right now that he dosent wear, im not sure why, he told me he wanted a pocket watch, cause hes cheesy like that, but idk if i really want to spend money on something he can only really wear when hes getting dressed up. I also thought about b-pics, i know he would like those haha! But im definately getting him one of those 3 things!

ooooooh I love the engraved Blue Label bottle..great idea! My FH was not shy in telling me he wants a gift, or about telling me what he wants. I'm going to get him a nice engraved Gucci or Movado watch...he deserves it. And it's something he can wear on the wedding day, and a long time after that! Anyone know how much a boudoir photo session can cost?
