We need a little poll b/c I'm super bored!

Did you and DH exchange wedding gifts? 

 

I got this cute little book for DH about Love (you know those kind you can find at Hallmark?) and I wrote him a really sweet card about how much I loved him, etc.

He gave me an Irish Make-up bell.  It is gorgeous!  We both have Irish heritage so it means a little something.  It is supposed to be used when you have a tiff and whoever rings the bell first is signaling peace.  I love the thought he put into that.  He also got me a picture frame, and wrote me a sweet card as well.

  • We didn't swap anything ....sorry I have nothing fun to contribute to the poll.... LOL
  • We didn't swap gifts either.

     

  • Yes!  We were a little extravagant and spent way too much, but haven't made purchases like that since.  I got him a Tag Heuer watch and he gave me some beautiful diamond solitaire earrings.  We both wear them nearly every day!
  • diamond solitaire earrings..does that even make sense?  I meant diamond stud earrings...
  • We didn't swap gifts either...
    Siggy coming soon....
  • We weren't supposed to, but Jason surprised me with a goregous watch after our RD :) I love him so much.
  • Gregg got me a circle diamond pendant necklace, and I got him a set of golf club b/c his old ones were falling apart.

  • Not really.  I gave him a card.  He gave me a note that he wrote on one of those marketing note pads they hand out at Dr. offices.  I still laugh about it.  He's such a goober.  I can't even remember what the name of the drug was on the tablet.

  • We did not get each other gifts....with all the money that it takes to put together a wedding....we did not want to tack any other expenses onto it!  Besides.....we had just bought our home a few months before we were married.  I guess that and the wedding was enough spending for us :P

  • i got dh the best gift of all....................ME!! lol, j/k

    nah, we didn't exchange anything.

  • I'm super late, but had to share! lol.

    I bought DH a wallet engraved with his intials. In the 4 and a half years we were together he always had the same worn out one, and I thought I should do something he could keep but also use....DH on the other hand went the sappy route :)

    Back when DH and I had our first dating anniversary, I bought a scrapbook. I intended for us to put our letters from being long distance inside, along with emails since we met online. It never happened. We kept the book, but never did complete it...we just nevr got to it somehow.

    On our wedding day, DH gave the scrapbook back to me, completed. He added in all sorts of things from our relationship-lyrics, prom ticket, letters, and pictures, etc. It was so so sweet and I was so impressed because he made it himself :) We gave the gifts when we chose to see each other before the ceremony.

  • Dh really likes watches and he has bought himself some really nice ones so i got him one with a rubber band so he could wear it golfing or to the gym.  He got me a david yurman braclet with peridot tips (my birthstone) and I wear it all the time.
