Wedding Day Gift?

[ilovethiswebsite]

What, if anything, are you getting your FI as a gift on your wedding day? I was thinking of getting my FI a new watch, since he collects them, and to him it''s the best gift of all time... Only problem is I already got him a nice watch when we got engaged and I feel like it''s not as original...

I got FI a Breitling watch. I can''t wait to give it to him.

haven''t decided if we are going to exchange gifts together - the night of the rehersal dinner OR
if we are going to give them to our wedding party to give to us the morning of (the only problem with this is that we wont get to see eachother open them!)

What about something for the watches? Like a winding station of sorts for the dresser. Does he have a proper watch box for them?

Check out watchcases.com some of the winders are very far out.

sick!! he is going to LOVE that! I got my FI a really nice Omega Seamaster (007 watch) when we got engaged, so I don''t really want to spend more than 1 thousand on yet another watch... He really likes the Tag Heuer F1 watch (for every day wear) and it''s around my price range... For now I am exploring other options...

FI would flip if I got him a watch-he''s an addict, but I decided to do a book of boudoir pictures for him.

It does sound as though you may be better off looking outside the watch genre. You''ve been very good to him in that department already.

ILTW, I'm not much help 'cause I got DH a watch he'd been admiring for a while, but didn't want to spend the money on. DH doesn't collect watches per se, but he does like to "upgrade" every couple of years. Does FI wear any other jewellery? Or, is he into cufflinks?

I also did boudoir photos for my fiancee. The pics turned our so much better than I had hoped, and I had 20 of them made into a small album to give him the night before our wedding. It should come in this week, and I can''t wait to see the end product! I know he will love it!

Is he a sports fan? I am getting FI football tickets as a wedding gift (and then, hopefully, I get to go to the game, too!).
