    I think i'll pinch Eilowny's idea, have also order a "grooms journal" which lets you write up how you meet, best moment together so far, worst moment etc etc and how to be a better husbandand the do's and dont book for a husband for a wee laugh ha ha x

    I told my man he can't have a gift till after the wedding as I can't afford it till after. Besides he gets to unwrap me on the wedding night so he shouldn't mind ;) xxx

    I am definitely going with the boudoir shoot.. the photographers I want do a package deal, so I'm going to send him a little album over on the morning of the wedding!

    Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while your bleeding
    But she'll bring out the best and the worst you can be
    Blame it all on yourself 'cos she's always a woman to me.."

    Theres a special boudoir studio here that has an all woman crew, and they have deals on with a few bridal shops that if you buy your dress at one of them you get your shoot free :) I'm sending H2B a photo on the morning, just hope he doesn't open it infront of his best man and ushers :O x

    I am trying to get a boudior shoot but dont know where :(
    Also giving him a little kit with:
    socks with groom on,
    tissues (he gets emotional),
    my favourite aftershave on him,
    mini mints in metal case,
    a pocket watch so he can keep track of how late I am
    and a little note oragami folded into a heart like I used to hide all over the flat for when i was away xx

    I'd not thought about it until now but I'm thinking boudoir photos. I have a lady friend who's a fantastic photographer, so I won't feel embarrassed & I'm positive it'll be a laugh. I see all her work on FB... I could ask her to photograph the wedding too. :D

    I getting my H2B a cigar cutter and getting it engraved. Doesnt sound much but its more to do with when we got engaged in the dominican republic he bought a box of cigars and said he would only smoke one when its a special occasion and when he did smoke one i would get a bag so go me! I did think of getting engraved "snip if you dare it'll be another bag for claire" hehe but also wanted something special engraved on it like our wedding date? I do like the idea of the survial kit lol

    Its my h2b's birthday so I'm getting him a self drive Jag for two days as he was going to drive to the venue in his own car. For the wedding I'm doing him a family book. His mum is helping me find out old photos and memories and we are going to put it in a photo book for him. I'm starting with his nan and grandad, their wedding etc and all the happy times as they can't be with us on our day. I'm then putting in photos of his mum and dad's wedding, him growing up etc and moving onto his niece and nephews and the pictures they draw for him telling him they love him. Finally I'm going to have pics of us together on our days out etc.

    I'm also going to do him a letter to tell him just how much being his wife means to me and how lucky I am. I'm going to list the things he does that makes me smile etc. I think it will be nice for him to be reminded before we say I do.

    We are going to Las Vegas for our honeymoon and as H2B is obsessed with Call of Duty on the Xbox have arranged for him to fire some of the guns they use in that for real in a firing range near the hotel we are staying at. Hopefully he will love it but it will be an experience none the less xx
