So brides, what did everyone get for the holidays?

Original post by DebsNY

Just wondering what everyone got for Christmas/Chanukah?

I got a few sweaters, some bath and bodyworks stuff, much needed $$$$$, some giftcards (including the blockbuster gift card that i gave my brother 2 years ago for x-mas... ). Season 3 of Sex and the City, and Season 1 of Popular (anyone remember that show ?)

Still have a few Christmases left though (FFIL, Dad, Grandma), but most of that will probably just be $$

Hope everyone had a great day!

we got some for the two of us:
decanter, luggage, ornaments, nativity set, and a poker table top with card shuffler!

We tried to stick to our budget but it didn't work--he got me UGG's which I love!! and a burberry poncho and scarf.

One of our best gifts was from my parents--they gave us a check to pay for our band!!

I got a ton! From FH I got 4 sessions with a personal trainer at my gym so I can be a Buff Bride and a B&N gift card and a Sephora gift card.

From my mom I got 2 sweaters, gloves, a scarf, a gift certificate to my hair place for my wedding highlights , a calendar (standing gift, I count on it every year!) and best of all, a GORGEOUS brooch from Swarovski that I had been eyeing for a while to use as my hairpin at the wedding.



I also got a gift card to Express (haven't shopped there since I'm 20 but it'll be fun to check it out again), $$$$$ from my brother, who's obviously insane with the amount he gave us!, all my everyday wine and tallboy cooler glasses off my registry, as well as my lobster crackers, some random wedding stuff and the coolest corkscrew set that comes in this gorgeous box with all of the accessories, etc. Oh, and this great frame with a pic of me and 2 of my cousins (who are in the BP).

All in all, a great christmas

Hi Girls!!!

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!!!

I got a Dell Pocket DJ and beautiful beautiful leather bag from FH, some new perfume too! and this really warm and very cute robe blue with snowflakes, totally love it!!
ETA: This huge gift set from Bath & Body works!! lol

Lots of pj's (that seemed the theme this year, since everyone knows I will be home recouping after surgery)

My sister and mom both gave me these great lipgloss sets my sister's is from Sephora and the one my mom gave me was from Clinique. My Dad bought with this pretty locket that's a watch, he got one for my sister too!

My brother's gf got me perfume, Taste by Jessica Simpson and my brother got me something for my car, which hasn't come yet so I will update later..lol

My parents basically paid for my car earlier this year soo only stocking stuffers for me this year, which is okay with me I thought i was going to have to pay them back!

FIL's were very generous, they got me a beautiful black wool car coat with matching black gloves and a beautiful red pasmina (sp?) scarf, some more pj's lol and one of those car starters you plug into your lighter and it starts the car.

Overall I was very happy!!
