ATOT Married folk, did you buy your wife a wedding present?

[minendo]

Not sure if it is traditional or even a common thing, but I've decided to buy the future Mrs. minendo a wedding gift. If all works out as planned she is getting a '67 Ford Mustang that the two of us will restore. (By restore, I mean she brings me beer as I do he work. )

Actually I have no desire to own any Ford product. The car is for her and her alone. Now the 69 Camaro that follows is mine.

She got me, what else could a sane woman ask for?

 

[MustISO]

I don't think so or I certainly don't remember getting her anything besides the engagement ring and the wedding band.

 

[HappyPuppy]

No, I bought my wife.

 

[ChooChooChooseMe]

For some odd reason I saw this title as "ATOT Married folk, where did you buy your wife?"

 

[FoBoT]

huh?
the reception guests provide the gifts, you just help provide the wedding

 

[theknight571]

Nope... I remember we talked about it the next day. I think we both asked "Was I supposed to get you a present?" lol

Neither one of us bought the other a present.

Not that we had the money to do so anyway.

[FeuerFrei]

No.

 

[ironcrotch]

I gave her a pounding....

 

[gooseman]

No present here.

 

[GoingUp]

IIRC its usually tradition to give each other gifts

 

[Squisher]

You mean you bought yourself a '67 stang and conned your future wife into thinking it's hers.


You have already mastered the art of Spouse Acceptance Factor.


:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: to you

What! she got me wasn't that present enough??

 

[ponyo]

Got her over 20k worth of presents mainly in form of various jewelry. It's tradition in our culture.

 

[IAteYourMother]

The infinity dollar wedding dress wasn't enough for her?

If not, then diamonds. She'll pretty much have to.

 

[Mucho]

I've never heard of such idiocy in my life.

 

[Kaieye]

I bought my wife a 286-20mhz computer with a 40 mb hard drive, etc.etc for about $2500 then...

 

[NiKeFiDO]

im sure someon pointed this out, and i didnt read all answers but.....

your not buying her a present, your buying yourself one

wow that's awesome :thumbsup:

I'm building her a hi-fi system, partly because she likes music and partly because I wanted to give her something I made. No, wedding presents are not required. But it will be a fun little suprise for her next month

 

[JulesMaximus]

Hell no! Isn't the engagement ring and your oath of celibacy enough?
