in Weddings & anniversaries
I'm looking for a bit of inspiration really. I want to leave my hubby to be a little gift to open once I've gone to my sisters to get ready on the wedding morning.
I'd like it to be something small, that he will love, but not too cheesey :rolleyes:

Any ideas anyone??

    what about a pic of something to look forward to later in the day, or the gift of love :)

    Something to wear to the wedding?

    My sister got her husband a very lovely and expensive watch. It was something new for him to take to the wedding itself, something that could be engraved on the reverse so he'd always remember what occasion he had it for and also, its a bit of a play on the tradition of getting to the church on time.

    I know mine is probably quite a common gift but I got my hubby some cufflinks which matched the colour of my dress, and he loved them.

    I got them from a place in China off ebay and I think they came to £10 in total including postage, although I hasten to add I bought them because they matched my dress more than the cost, although the cost did sway it a bit!

    I have bought my OH a silver love heart as part of his Xmas present. If you use firebox.com you can get the back personalised. With OH's present I bought a sack of mini love heart pack's which I am going to put in the box with it- again you can get these personalised.
