(xposted) Old Marrieds - What did you buy your H?

Through a friend I got Paul Weller to sign a picture  "To Stewart, Congratulations on your wedding day, Paul Weller"  and framed it.

Thanks great mate...he's been waffling on about one for ages, so I know he'll REALLY love it...as you say I might just 'wedding' it up a bit...

Ta Muchly everyone! x

what about something like this which can be engraved http://www.leatherman-store.co.uk/collections/frontpage/products/leatherman-wave-multi-tool   and then get the toolbelt for his birthday?

I was twee-er than a twee thing. I gave him a mini notebook and on every page was a reason why I loved him.

We weren't doing presents then i found out a couple of days before the wedding that H had got me a gift via my mum and so i didn't feel awful i went and got him a watch.  we were both skint so it was just a nice looking but relatively cheap watch from argos.

I love those, but at £90 for a posh pair of pliers might be pushing my budget a bit...I was thinking more like £30!

Thanks though.

I didn't get my H a present as such but I got him a wedding card and had it signed by all the players in his favourite football team.  He loved it!

I got him cuff links but he knew about those, so I just bought him some silly socks to put with the cuff links and a card, they had the date of the wedding, his name and "in case you get cold feet" on the instep, he though they were funny and wore them on the day

I knew that my H would have had a bit of a late one the night before our wedding as the best men are big drinkers, so I did him a 'wedding day survival kit' in a nice box. It had everything from headache pills to handcream and emergency cuffinks, tissues etc. Then right at the bottom I'd wrapped up his watch and he opened that last. I know the watch doesn't help but maybe the rest might! Z

i got mr ck a flying lesson which i went on too (along with bump) he loved it

I bought my H these cufflinks:

I put tiny photos of both of us in them & in one half, I put 'See you at 2pm'

Bit cheesy!

He got me a bunch of flowers. But as we went on honeymoon 2 days later, they were never fully appreciated!!!

Bugger all! IMO I don't think you should get each other gifts for your wedding day, I just feel its more unnecessary expense.

However, get the toolbelt if you know that's what he'd like.
