You can a get personalised printed book or similar of why you love him. This is the type of thing I mean;

This is something I fancy doing too Hun, so also interested in the ideas. Socks would be a def for my other half as he loves jazzy socks but not sure what else x

This is what I'm doing although making it myself rather than buying this and have ordered personalised boxer shorts and socks from eBay for £8 xx

I did this I put in a little card that said what they were for, there were socks that said 'in case you get cold feet'. cufflinks engraved with our names and wedding date - to hold him together. Some wedding tissues - in case he did fall apart, a little bottle of disaronno - for Dutch courage and a vintage Omega pocket watch - so he would be on time

Look at Handmade Vintage on Facebook and Etsy. The lady that runs it (Donna) is amazing! They do groom boxes and a really good price too

For those that don't want to make their own The Boxed Gift Company do exactly this type of thing. It doesn't cost any more than you want to spend, can be personalised and they deliver! They do have a Facebook page but I can't tag it for some reason

I did this- got him a personalised pocket watch-so you're not late, socks- in case you get cold feet, personalised pants- so everyone knows you're mine, cufflinks- to help keep your nerves (and sleeves!) together, tissues- for tears of joy, paracetamol- for your head in the morning! He really loved it x

I saw online a box incorporating the 5 senses... sight = lingerie for you. smell = aftershave. touch = massage oil or similar. sound = itunes voucher or a CD (if he uses them). taste = a meal voucher or a note/invitation to a home cooked 3 course romantic meal x

I got my husband, some cufflinks that I had engraved, a card, beer, personalised groom socks, ( I also got best man ones and father of the bride ones ) and boxers but they didn't come in time I put them all in a personalised groom sack ️

I'm planning on making one for my fiancé. I'm thinking of a hip flask and some whiskey for him along with other little things he may need on the day such as some aftershave, mints, a hairbrush and hairspray (he spends more time on his hair everyday than me) and some little things that are personal or memories for us such as love heart sweets, a photo of us and or daughter. Maybe some socks that have groom wrote on them
