Trying to figure out a wedding gift for my fiance. Coming up in a little under 7 weeks. I asked her for some ideas and waiting for a response. She told me she already got mine and it’s very sentimental. One idea I was thinking was diamond earrings. Another thought was that I just saw a video of a couple hired a live event painter to come paint a moment at your wedding either first dance, ceremony, etc. I showed her the video and she thought it was so cool.

Get something she can wear the day of. Earrings sounds great if she already isn’t either being gifted a pair from her parents or is wearing CZs. Secretly talk to the maid of honor to figure out what jewelry she has planned.

You’re so nice. My husband was like “uh, you just got a large diamond and you’re getting a bunch more on your wedding band, you don’t need more presents”

funny

Yeah maybe scratch the diamond earrings idea. Way over budget on research. Probably budget is close to a grand

You can get some nice designer shoes (if she’s into that) and put a cute note on the bottom of the sole. Also a nice luxury purse for the honeymoon.

Anyone else realize thay they are a generous gift giver throughout the wedding planning process? I have never given less than $150. Also, the amount of $$ given to us has no tie to how close we are to the gift giver or the gift giver’s financial status. We have close wealthy friends giving $100 and not-as-close working class friends giving $300. Meanwhile, no siblings giving anything. Has this happened to others?

Need some advice! Should we update our wedding start time to 4pm so we can have our after party 10pm-1am instead of 5pm wedding start and 11pm-1am after party? We sent wedding invites with a 5pm start time because we have 6hrs at the venue and the bar around the corner said the after party had to be 11pm-1am. Now bar said thee after party can start at 10pm. We can realistically contact all who RSVPd yes to let them know AND a 4pm start time means we still have daylight (it’s a winter wedding).

Comment where you are cutting back to save money. Here are ours:
- Not doing a presidential suite, instead we’re getting a normal suite and using a conference room for hair/makeup/meals
- Centerpieces. We are doing a few bigger centerpieces, then small bud vases at the rest of the tables.
- Transportation for guests. Our wedding is in a major city and ubers are easily accessible.
- Flowers. No flowers for men, only the groom is getting a boutonnière. No flowers for parents/grandparents.
