This isn’t for most people, but personally, I prefer quality, practical gifts that I’ll use over something fancy I’ll never use. So we got matching custom yeti mugs. They have “Last Name est 2021” on them, and mine is white and his is black. We use them every day.

We’re gifting each other perfume! Jo Malone to be specific as it also allows to customize the bottle with the date! We’ll be using the colone/perfume for the wedding day and for special dates afterwards

I did a nice watch for him. If we hadn’t had a budget he would have done diamond earrings for me but got us a custom woodwork sign for our house with our names and the wedding date

I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!
