Hi! So my FH’s daughter went to get measured today because we’re ordering her bridesmaid’s dress online. Unfortunately, the company we’re ordering from doesn’t do custom sizing. I know it’s normal to...

It’s the holidays, yay! I’ve seen lots of great threads about fun gift ideas and seen some really sweet ones, so I’m curious about the other end of the spectrum? Has your partner ever given you a gift...
