Gift ideas for my fiance/wife

I am getting married in a couple of weeks, I want to get something really nice for my wife to be, any ideas?


Budget is kind of flexible, I just want to get something really nice, I have already planned a nice honeymoon to Mauritius but I want to buy her something else.
 
Wow, how open ended is that question. You give us no details on her likes/dislikes. Anyway, the gift should come from you, not the suggestion of one of us nerds.

Be a husband to your wife, man up and buy her something you pick out.

I'm not a nerd!
 
I framed a 5x7 photo of us with one of our wedding invites (also 5x7), and between them I put the standard wedding vows (the whole "for better or for worse, death and all that"). It was extra-special for my wife because she hand made all of our wedding invitations. The intention was to replace the photo with one of our wedding photos after the wedding... haven't gotten around to that yet. And I also used an older version of the invitation that had the wrong time on it... whoops.

Anyway, it turned out really nice and she really liked it. Total cost was about $100 from pictureframes.com.

That's really sweet and thoughtful. I'd cry.

furnace filters... new ones

or vacum cleaner bags

That'd be a great start to a marrage to be. Buy her jewerly, give her $$, clothes, yadayada bla blah blah. I only know this because my mom buys almost the same stuff every year. She'll liike any of the above.

I think it'd be weird for him to give her money.

Jewlery's always a nice idea or maybe something related to your honeymoon.

Making it personal is definitely the way to go, though.
 
right before she walks down the aisle, have her maid of honor give her a card with a love letter written to her, then, on the wedding night, give her some lingerie to start the marriage off right!
it doesnt have to be expensive, just heartfelt
