Practical Gifts for Groom on Morning Of the Wedding

Hi all

Just trying to put together a gift bag for my fiance' to open on the morning of the wedding. So far I've got a couple of signed photos and letter from his footie team but want to add a collection of small practical items to the bag I'm putting together. So far all I can think of is tic tacs! :S

    A small bottle of his favourite aftershave, a pair of cufflinks and maybe a love note?

    A bottle of water for him to take to the church .... its surprising how thirsty he will get waiting for your arrival...

    Not so much a gift...but how about a disposable camera so thet he or someone else can capture him getting ready and getting to the church...It will put the other side to you getting ready as there is always someone snapping the bride and rarely the groom

    I've bought my OH a new pair of socks with an embroidered message on. Will also be putting a box together for him.

    Shoe shine kit?

    It's amazing how many blokes I've seen shine their shoes on the back of their trouser legs as the bride is walking in!

    Hi Littlerose,

    Found the link that anderson 8 mentioned:

    I have done something similar too and added a pair of earmuffs as a joke so he can't hear me nagging once we are married!
