Hi Mike Welcome and Congrats on your engagement.... Maybe send her a gift on the morning of the wedding... some kind of jewellery she could wear on the day, or plan a surprise for her when you get back to the honeymoon suite.... chocolate and champagne hamper or something....
Now Mrs Cobb!!!!!! :-D

Welcome to the site, I think jewellery is always a safe bet x
CommentAuthorLedZepLover
Well me personnally, I would love a big bouquet of flowers delivered while I was getting ready with a little note saying 'can't wait to meet you down the aisle' or something similar, along with a bottle of champayne (or whichever drink your b2b prefers) to enjoy with the bridemaids before the ceremony. You don't have to throw lots of money at it for it to be special, for me it would be the thought and gesture that really matters x
CommentAuthorKerrylou
Welcome to the madhouse Mike and congrats on your wedding :)
I'd love something personal that I can keep throughout our married life, and when we're old and grey I can get it out and reminisce - something like a love letter or a poem, but if you're not inclined like that then there are some lovely pewter wedding day trinkets (has a top hat, wedding car, just married plaque but all token size) Above all remember, us girlies appreciate it a whole bunch more if some real thought has gone into it. hth xxx
It's right what they say
"The course of true love never runs smoothly"
But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as
much as we do right now - 1 week to go :D
CommentAuthorJane
How about a voucher so she can have a spa day after the wedding - give her a chance to chill and be pampered!
CommentAuthorMrswright
Hello and welcome i think jewellry delivered the morning of your wedding is such a lovely thing to do

CommentAuthorHelen
You could make a recording of "your song" - with you singing it and have it taken over to her as she is getting ready (saw this on some bridal programme ages ago), or a personal note, letter or poem, or as some of the girls have suggested, jewellery, something she can wear on the day x
CommentAuthorMrs Turps (Nicpep)
I was being serious Kaya! if she shows up and has had a shave, and smiles at me and marries me then I'll be a happy lady :) I dont need anything else :)
Plus if I got something like note or jewellery from my Mr, i would guess that someone else told him to. he doesnt think of things like that

I agree Nic.... I'll be happy if he turns up and marries me as well. I don't need a gift to make it special but I know he's getting me 1! lol

Depending on your budget, a high street jewellers, initials E.J. are doing the most gorgeous diamond tennis bracelet for around £350...looks like its worth soooo much more. My friend who gets married tomorrow has been bought one by her H2B as his wedding gift to her

CommentAuthorMrsKisywisy
i would say jewellery. maybe not for her to wear during the wedding (as she probably worked out exactly what she was wearing months before). maybe a charm bracelet?? one that you can add to every year. you could start off with little wedding band charms

I would,personally, be totally blown away if Paul wrote me a letter, telling me how much he loved me, the things about me that make me "the one", and how proud and happy he is that I am going to be his wife. Something from the heart and really personal! That-or SHOES!!! :) xxx

weekend away? gift vouchers for her favourite shop? tickets to see her favourite band. er im out...
CommentAuthorAngelaeris
Personally I'd love a letter written from the heart my H2B doesnt need to spend money on anything. A letter was how we got together so it would be the perfect start to our married life.

CommentAuthorlinzi
was going to say same as kisywisy. A charm bracelet (Chamila from Ernst Jone, or a Pandora one) with a few silver ad white/cream/what ever your color theme is . There are hundreds of charms to chose from. she can wear it on the day and to me would be the perfect gift.
I don’t repeat gossip so listen very carefully!!

CommentAuthorXLittleMissMe!X
My h2b is getting me a bracelet to wear on the day. His mum is showing him what will go with what she has already brought for me. I'm getting him a photo album of me boudoir style ;) and writing him an emotional letter. I'm also doing him a photo book of his family for his birthday (which is the same day as our wedding) as some of his family have passed on and won't be there for our big day. It will include all the generations that we have including ourselves. I think personal gifts that come from the heart are always the best so anything you do that shows you have put thought into it would be good. You don't have to spend money letters, music on a cd to her etc are worth far more than money can buy.
CommentAuthorSpud
hi mike, welcome to the site. i like the idea of jewelery, it gives her something extra special to wear all day and then afterwards can still wear it all the time and be reminded of your special day together.
(wish my h2b was brave enuff to join and ask questions lol) bravo to you, and congrats xx
CommentAuthorPennylane
I think this is really sweet that you're on here asking advice from all us girlies about this - good on ya! I'd go with a piece of jewellery too x

CommentAuthorlala "mod" bunni
mike it`s lovely to have you on here......hope you join in with all the chatter ,ass girls have said a necklace or a watch maybe woulf be something she could cherish . if she has a particular interest something to do with that maybe ......i have had some fab pressies from mr lala but one that stands out is a night at the ballet..not his thing at all but mine hugely ,that meant alot as he was happy to sit through it for me
Get someone on side who's gonna be with her the night before day of wedding. And ask them to keep planting small little gifts...a rose petal in a shoe, in her make up bag, just anyplace she is likely to see it, then when she meets you at the end of the isle give her the big gift before the ceremony starts. I hope my H2b does this for me
I'm now a married woman
I have a gorgeous husband
Whats to do now
Theres no more wedding planning to do
CommentAuthorJoolsy
My Husbands gift to me on the day of wedding was swarovski Jewellery he bought me gorgeous heart earrings and a heart necklace (with a wee note saying I give you my heart it was so lovely) and a lovely bracelet aswell I will treasure them forever!!!xx

Hi Mike, Congratulations on your engagement and welcome to ukbride.. why not get her a pretty knecklace she can wear on the day with an engraved jewellry box it goes in.. maybe saying something like.. 'to the love of my life, cant wait to see you at 1pm!' (or whatever time your getting married) Cheesy but some of us girls like that sorta thing (:

Dear all,
Thank you so much for your suggestions and taking time to help me out, I think i'm going for the following in a nice wedding surprise box. Your ideas were so good I had to pick a few of them:
Pandora bracelet - with wedding trinkets e.g. wedding cake, heart and a few coloured ones in our wedding theme colours Champagne with flutes for bride and bridesmaids Flowers delivered Personal letter Perfume
If there are any more that would be great but keep the price down as I've spent quite a bit already!
