    Ive just got a signed Steven Garrard Football boot with a personalised plaque they have put it in a really nice frame for me. A few years ago I got H2B a signed Liverpool Shirt so I want to get that framed and put it next to it.

    For the morning of the wedding ive got him a card, aftershave and some coffee and ive also got him and BM a personalised Brandy Glass that will be on the Head Table ready for when we sit down for dinner.

    For my htb I'm putting a few bits in a gift bag which include :
    His favourite aftershave,how to be a good husband book (was wrote for 1930's middle class so could be a funny read) and I'm also putting together a groom's survival kit as follows Socks: to stop you getting cold feet,Marbles: to replace the ones I'll help you lose,Tissues:to wipe your eyes when you see me,String:to help us tie the knot,Bottle of hearts:because mine belongs to you,Paper clip:to hold us together and A kiss: because I love you so much.some of the bits for survival kit I found online but others I've come up with myself.I love the idea of survival kits as they are inexpensive but a very personal gift :)

    It has taken me months, but I'm so happy I finally found it I had to share! We found a monogram of our initials (D and K) entwined together to use on our stationary on the day, and I wanted to get him some engraved cufflinks with this on it, but NOWHERE! does engraving that is this entwined or personalised, but I have finally found a place that will engrave ANY design you give them as long as its a clear enough quality for the machine to understand the graphic, so I am now going to get him our personalised monogram on sterling silver cufflinks - so happy!

    Im getting H2b a Sgian Dubhs its the knife that goes in the kilt socks. looking at also getting him a kilt pin and maybe matching cufflinks if its a set but he wont be able to wear cufflinks on the day as his shirt doesn't have the holes for the cufflinks.

    Also thinking about putting in some little bits, I want to do a 'Memory letter' of some sorts like first date was.... first holiday... most important day of our lives day son was born.... things like this but not sure exactly what to write. The last thing I will write is the next time you see me will be the the second most important day of our lives the day we become husband and wife.

    Where have people been getting the black gorgeous groom boxes from?

    I think they look lovely and think I will have enough bits to give him in the morning to put in one of those.

    I've just ordered him a ''Don'ts for husbands'' book as a bit of a joke.


    Thinking of also buying him a pack of mints, a miniature whiskey and some other bits. He's a bit funny so won't appriciate all of the things in the grooms survival kits, like he won't like things that are too soppy like ''gum to hold us together'' so thought I can put my own together with little bits.

    Ouch, that seems a bit pricey for me for a gift box.

    I think I'll shop around and just get him one that doesn't say groom on it, gutted as paper chase had some lovely one's with stags on in for Christmas and they don't have the large one's on the website anymore. He would have liked that. Ahh well, will keep looking. I have plenty of time. Might wait until I have more things as well so I know exactly how big it needs to be.

    I got like a woven bag from the bay and I love it. It's not massive or anything, but it says something like a 'Groom, a little gift for you before we say I do' something along those lines, I think it's cute :)

    I've done. Boudoir photo shoot, totally out of character for me so,I can't wait to see what the pics are like, mind you they are soooo expensive he will kill me if he finds out how much the photos are, I haven't got them yet,I'm going for. A viewing in a couple of weeks, if I like them, I will buy some or maybe get them on a cd for him to view, he won't know I've done it, I'm gonna leave it in our room so when I leave as I'm staying at the venue I'll leave it there and text him later to say go take a look. Tee hehe!

    I am going to try and get my h2b some silver cuff links with either diamonds or rubies in to match his kilt. But I will definitly be enlisting the help of his best man to hire him a super care for the day. I will be staying at the hotel the night before so I don't need transport but I don't want him driving to our wedding in a VW Polo. He loves Porches and Aston Martins etc but I don't have a clue when it comes to this kind of thing but his friends do but I want to keep it as quiet as possible and only have his best man know about it. It is going to cost me a small fortune but it will be worth it as he treats me like a princess so I want to do something amazing for him for a change xx

    I'm going to do a grooms survival kit and make my own tags to attach to them, iv not completely decided on everything but these are the ones i have:

    Socks = incase he gets cold feet
    jigsaw piece= he's my missing piece
    engraved shot glass with a minnie vodka shot = to calm his nerves
    mints = for a fresh first kiss
    tissues = to wipe away any happy tears
    a watch = which I'm going to stop it on the time of the ceremony and the tag will say 'the moment our lives will change'
    digital camera = to capture every special moment

    this is all iv got so far but still need to come up with a few more.....

    I'm inbetween get hubby The new arsenal kit and one for my son or get him the 2015 FA Cup Winner Arsenal watch but he barely wears his other arsenal watch!! Wanted to see if I can get a signed shirt or letter of one of the arsenal players one of his favourites either Walcott Giroud Chamberlain Ozil etc... But I don't know how you go about doing that and if I got it signed would have to frame the shirt and put up on the wall!!
    I bet you my hubby hasn't thought about getting me a gift for the night before the wedding or in the morning!! My hubby can be sentimental just wish it was all the time!! Xxx
