What’s a good gift for a bride to give her groom?
Discussion Corner — By NikhilBhide on May 13, 2005 at 05:04Case Wants To Know:
I know that the bride and groom exchange gifts (per tradition), what are some good gifts for a bride to give her groom?
We are having a tiny wedding – just parents and siblings in attendance. And we are paying for the wedding ourselves – except for the dinner afterwards – my fiance’s parents are paying for that. Our wedding cost less than $2,000.
Thanks for the wonderful ideas and answers!

I gave my fiance a pair of cufflinks, and a tie tack. he does a lot of medieval fencing and teaches classes on the art of medieval sword fighting so I found some really great “knight in shining armor” vintage cufflinks and a tie tack that had a knight on a horse. He is BIG into cufflinks and tie tack so its the best gift for him…do something that you know your fiance will use!
I am also having a small wedding on a very tight budget. As a wedding gift to him I am putting together a scrapbook of all the pictures and keepsakes (tigers game tickets, love notes, etc.) that we have shared so far. I am also including in it empty pages for our wedding pics, in our wedding colors and theme.
Hope this helps, and God bless you both!
I would select a “classy” guy gift, but it will depend on your man’s interests. Some ideas – nice watch display case (about $40 at bed bath & beyond), cologne, watch, cigars, etc. Chances are he will give you jewelry, meaning it will be just one item, so I would pick just one item for him, not three or four smaller presents. Good luck and congrats.
A watch or a pair of silk boxers?
Well you can consider the rings your gifts
You can get him something he’s always wanted
plan an extra surprise on the honeymoon
I think a perfume , because, it may finish soon, but its fregrence remains in ur mind / heart if it s given on some special occasions, and when ever he will use same brand again, all same memories of new wedding days will be refresh in his mind, its brilliant to recall newly wedding days in ur later life. Wish u best of luck
Total support all through the journey.
Don’t limit it to one gift. Get a rather large box as a “man care packet of love.” Inside put everything he needs or loves that he refuses to get for himself.
a lil something something before the reception
We didn’t exchange gifts. After spending over $10,000 on a wedding we figured that a gift was just rediculous. But I suppose if you aren’t paying for your own wedding, a gift would be in order. A nice watch with an engraved message would be nice.
What a better gift than herself?
We’re not giving each other anything, other than perhaps a card. And we’re waking up together (not really traditional people!), so we will already be able to share a little time together before the wedding.
But how about a CD he can listen to while getting ready?
Or a “last Rolo” -+-+My+Last+Rolo

A great wedding night.
I can’t speak for all guys, but few grooms care about gifts. You ARE his gift.
Congrats!
