    Hi there,

    Looking for ideas for a wedding present to give my husband-to-be on the wedding morning.

    I'd like to get him something sentimental that he'll always have and it can't be a watch/pocket watch. I've already bought him 2 watches. He's a gadget freak so prefers his Apple watch and would have no interest in a pocket watch.

    He has talked about wanting a drone but I feel like that's more of a Christmas present rather than a wedding present. The only idea I've come up with is cuff links but I feel like that's a bit "meh".

    Happy to spend circa €1k.

    Any ideas? :)

    He's getting you. Nothing more needed.

    I did a boudoir shoot for him :) and it was presented the morning of the wedding. Photographer got a shot of him opening it and his reaction then scarpered! But I also got him little bits, aftershave, dated socks etc.

    I did exactly the same. He loved it. Still says it's his favourite present ever!

    Thanks guys. Not convinced a boudoir shoot is my thing though...

    Sarah, it was the single most scary thing I'd ever done but I was so proud of it. I'd done a lot of exercise for the wedding so I thought, feck it, I'll probably never have another chance. I'm so glad I did because I haven't looked like that since :P
    I got hair and make up done professionally and got our wedding photographer to do it for us. I brought my friend along and we had a great laugh in the end. I definitely wasn't as awkward for the wedding pics then haha!!

    Etsy has lots of things you can get personalised. Maybe a wallet or belt for the day of? I got OH a keyring that said I'll love you til the Zombies get us. He loved that too. But definitely have a look on Etsy if you're still stuck.
