    I think it would be nice to send an item of jewellery with a blue sapphire on, it can be her something blue and it will remind her of her wedding whenever she wears it!

    How romantic to be sending her a gift on the morning of the wedding! My OH would think that the wedding will be a big enough gift LOL!
    Overcome the notion that you must be ordinary. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary!

    something personal that means something special to you both. So perhaps a small notebook filled with photos of both of you, some poetry, some reminders of special times that you have had?

    I would have thought that you had already bought jewellery as a wedding present (being the wedding & engagement rings!). Personally I would prefer something beautiful & meaningful that meant something to both myself & the other half - especially if alot of time & effort was involved - that means more than diamonds, surely?

    (although obviously if my lovely fiancee bought me a diamond bracelet I would probably not be too upset - but would still prefer the meaningful present)
    nothing to see here, move along...

    I agree with Floss2.... Perfume is a great idea.

    I had new perfume for my wedding day and even now (5 years later) I get butterflies in my tummy and a feel good buzz when I smell the scent. I now only wear this perfume on special occasions and, of course, on our wedding anniversary.

    How about a family tree with the both of you on it?

    A piece of art to do with a special place for you both?

    A watch with a special message on the back?

    I know its "bad luck" to see the bride/groom before the wedding but how about an early morning balloon flight together before the madness starts?

    she is totally perfect in my eyes and made me the happiest i have ever been we have both been married before but this time its for keeps as we are best friends as well as soul mates
    even thou shes 4000 miles away we talk at least 3 times a day on the phone then we always say goodnight via msn so this keeps us sane at the moment only 1 month 1 day to she lands in the uk for 10 days then we fly back there to live
    her engagement ring has a blue diamond in the center with 2 other clear diamonds either side of it and baggetts down the shank
    she will be getting it when she gets here just got to find the right place and time maybe in the arrivals lounge at heathrow lol
    i designed the ring and picked the stones myself and she knows nothing about it so that will go down well i hope

    i could have got a cheaper ring but this also has the personal touch as there is nothing like it and i couldnt stand it if i was a woman and saw another ring the same as mine
