Is he getting you anything? Can y’all just agree not to exchange gifts?

I received a box with our last name initial on it to put my cuff links/watches in.

We gave each other perfume/colone with the wedding date engraved! And used the perfume/colone as our wedding day scent. Highly recommend 😊

I got my husband an engraved pocket watch but you could do a regular watch as well or nice cuff links. We also wrote each other letters to exchange day of during our first look.

Mine loves his sports so I got him an authentic Arsenal jersey and also got him a book with a boudoir shoot I did. Our wedding is this Saturday! 🥳

What shall be the next steps, shall I wait for some days or start looking for other jobs as getting a project looks difficult as there are minimalist responses.
