Bride & Groom Gifts to Each Other

Posted in Planning 40

I've heard of the bride and groom getting each other a "wedding gift". To me, it seems like we would be each others gift to one another! haha. Are ya'll doing this? If so, what are you doing for it?! Whether it be buying them a gift, or just doing something special for your FH.. I'm curious.

    My fh's bday is the sat after our wedding so my gift to him will be bigger than his to me. So I am getting him a pair of expensive MN Twins tickets at the new stadium for us for 2 days after our wedding (we are mini honeymooning in the cities) and then I am getting him a basket of day of stuff. Granola, gatorade, bars, deo, etc etc...all the stuff he'll be using to get ready and power himself for the day :-) I've really contemplated boudiour shots but I don't know who would take them/cost. haha

    We're thinking of the HM as our gift to each other. Since the wedding is in August, everywhere will be hot & he doesn't like the super hot weather so we'll wait for the colder weather.

    I don't know what to get him. He is hard to shop for. It will probably depend on what money I have available when the time does come.

    We have decided that we are also going to wait until our honeymoon and buy something then, that way we can both pick it together.

    This is a thread that pops up every now and again... and my answer is always the same.

    His gift is ME!

    My gift is him!

    I want to do buidoir photos...but only if I lose the weight I want to...other than that, I wanted to get him a round of golf for him and his groomsmen at the country club in Rangely. That way they have something fun to do the day before the wedding

    I did a boudoir book for him, and also had a custom screened silk handkerchief made. It has our wedding date, names, and lyrics from our song on it. He used it a lot lol.

    I got him a nice digital camera b/c he loves taking pictures and we REALLY need one now that mine broke. I'm very curious what he is getting me. He has hinted at a Sox jersey with Mrs Franta on the back & Brad Paisley tickets and a couple other things to keep me from figuring it out. We'll see. I know he got me earrings for the wedding day.

    I'm getting him a massage the day before the wedding and I wrote him a letter to give to him that morning. Kinda lame I guess but he will love that massage!

    I'm doing boudoir photos.... mostly because i think it's a great gift for FH, and i have a good excuse to get them done now... I told him he didn't have to get me anything but I'm getting him something (hopefully it will be a surprise!!) I'm doing the shoot tomorrow!!!! FH decided he wants to buy me jewelry to wear on our wedding day... which i love!!!

    We've had our Brides give their Groom's the Celtic Knot Wedding Coin and the Family Tree Wedding Coin right before the ceremony.

    Diane had her son carry the Knot to her husband-to-be, Steve, as he stood waiting for her to walk down the aisle.

    "Steve told me that the Knot meant a lot because he will be able to look at it in 20-30-40 years and remember that moment, when he was waiting for me to come down the aisle, standing there with my son holding the Knot in his hand with my message to him on it." — Diane

    Our Wedding Coins, handcrafted in Vermont, are the perfect Groom gift. Engrave family names, or a special message, and the wedding date for an heirloom to be cherished for generations.

    My husband gave me a sketch of my wedding dress and his tux after we got married. Most amazing gift ever. We took it to the reception where he had it placed on an easel! Dreamlines creates amazing pieces of arts. Very impressive...We love their work.
