First of all what is everyone getting theirs?

I think I'm going to get an engraved pint tankard as this is what he said he would like but what shall I get engraved on it? Choices are:

Initials - two or three ie. ABC or AC? And the date of our wedding.

Name - full name or just first name last name or just first two names and wedding date

Something completely different...nothing too mushy, suggestions welcome.

I am also thinking of buying a personalised map keying from notonthehighstreet as he currently carries round his house key on it's own and then tries to blame me when he can't find it ? but not sure what location to get, choices are:

Bournemouth where we first met and both went to university

Paris where he proposed

Geneva where we live now and our first home as a family

For those getting a few things what are you putting them all in?

    I'm just making up a goodie bag for him, so far I have

    Novelty Socks with 'So you don't get cold feet' Not normally a big fan but smirked when I saw them, if he doesnt have to wear them I'm not bothered

    A book on How to be a Good Husband, again just silly.

    So nice smellies for him to use on the morning

    Mini bottle of Jack Daniels

    and then I'm a bit stuck, need more jokey things!! Its not costing a fortune all just a bit fun..

    I got mine some designer boxers that are similar to ones he normally chooses, but in the colour to match his cravat.

    His converse to change into if his smart shoes pinch. ANd this type of shoe is what he wears daily so they will be worn afterwards.

    A keyring with the longitude and latitude coordinates of where we will marry on.

    And some other silly bits that I know will make him smile.

    I'm getting my OH designer shoes, and some nice cufflinks. Have to say I love the latitude thing but to my OH they'd be random numbers!!

    I love the idea of engraved items. We stock a wide range of items that would be suitable.

    We offer engraved hip flasks that you could have the wedding date engraved on, or intials or names. If you want something a bit smaller what about an engraved bottle opener? with his name on.

    Have a look at our website to get more ideas and see the products we can supply

    The boxers are just calvin Klein with a gold waistband. May not be 100% match but pretty much gold is gold!

    The keyring was from Spiffing jewellery on Etsy.

    Im having a boudoir shoot, then have bought him an engraved hip flask, mug with the wedding date on, tshirt for the morning of the wedding (says groom 2012 on front and his surname on the back like a football shirt). Also got a personalised handkerchief. Putting it all in a bag I got from vistaprint with a bride and groom on the side
