Re: can i divorce my family??
Hang in there you're coming down to the homestretch. My advice - the day before go by yourself and get pampered. Get a mani/pedi, a mini massage and relax. Go home and have a glass of wine. Best of luck to you.

If you don't want to get FH a gift for the wedding another fun idea (which I did) was we bought each other new watches on our honeymoon. We did a cruise and got really nice watches for great prices in the caribbean. And now we have a nice souvenier from our honeymoon.

That's a great idea...but he already bought me a camera. And I feel bad because I made this big deal about how we have to give each other wedding gifts and now I feel bad :(I do like the watch idea though, can anyone recommend a good men's watch in the $200 range?
He likes bulky ones.

My husband got a citizen with echo drive (never needs a battery, is basically solar powered). I think he paid $300 but I know they have more reasonable ones as well.
You can go to Tanger Outlets in Deer Park and go to Zales or Ultra Diamonds. They have watches and you can probably get one for a good price.
