Ok, I'm completely stumped as to what to get my dad. He's always been hard to buy for. I mean, since I was a kid I was told if it wasn't socks or underwear (and a very specific style/brand) he didn't want it.
The back story wedding-wise, is I'm not having my him walk me down the aisle. I've talked it out with him and it's all good. I don't want to be "given away" and he doesn't want to "give me away". On another note, he's totally anti-marriage (he and my mom have been divorced for like 32 years now) and I don't want that juju walking me down the aisle.
Personalized beer glasses are the easy go-to, everyone can use a glass, but I want something more sentimental than that. So for my mom, I'm getting us matching little bracelets we can both wear, so it's like she's with me during the ceremony. I'd like to do something similar for my dad. Something we can both have on us as a little sort of connection through the day. Here's where I'm stuck. He's a VERY casual guy. No tie bars, cufflinks, hankies, etc. Sooooo, maybe something that would go on his key chain and I could wear as jewelry? Something to keep in his wallet or pocket that I can tuck/pin into my dress somewhere? I'm wearing sneakers, so maybe matching socks with a note that even though he's not walking me down the aisle, he'll be walking with me the whole day. Or is that gross b/c it's on your feet?
Has anyone done anything like this? I'm desperate for ideas!
