Well, you know what hopeless, sentimental romantics we women can be... how about something to commemorate the big event?A keepsake box... with a nice engraving of your names and the date of the wedding or a nice verse that tells her how you feel.If she's into jewelry maybe a charm bracelet with a wedding theme charm on it. You can add one every year as the anniversaries tick on by.You can wrap either of these in a nice little lingerie something for you later that night.

I am trying to think of what I would like from my fiance... hmm. Some thoughts off the top of my head:-something special or specific for your honeymoon-jewelery (I know, kind of expensive, but pearls or diamonds are nice for earrings or for a solitaire necklace) I also suggest jewelery because I am getting my fiance a watch-a nice camera or camcorder if you like to take pictures or record -a promise to help out after the wedding with work around your home or moving or with new gifts?Good luck! Something from your heart or something specific to your fiance would be best! Many people don't even think it's necessary to give a gift. Best of luck to you

It should be meaningful, first of all. It should be something she can see and think of you-(do NOT get her anything to cook or clean with!!!) Something that you can engrave is always good, like a watch, or a picture frame with several places for multiple pictures. Put a pic of you guys when you first met, and one of your engagement pics in it to start, and write her a note telling her how you can't wait to fill the rest of the frame with the wonderful memories to come, or better yet, have it engraved on the frame. Go to www.thingsremembered.com, or to to the things remembered store near you. You could also write her a song if you're even slightly musically inclined, and record it in a small recording studio-(will cost you about $50-$100 for recording time and editing). You could also give her a gift that has something to do with the first time you met, or a first date if that's possible-(like mouse ears if your first date was Disneyland.) You could add a pretty necklace, locket, or jewelery to any gift, and she would probably love it. If you don't have much to spend, don't worry. The object here is to give her something that will mean a lot to her that is from your heart, that you put thought into. Don't forget to write out a really sweet card to go with the gift! Congrats and good luck!

She already has the perfect gift; the love of the man she adores. Anything else is just extra icing on the cake. But if you are really keen to give her something, think exquisite lingerie, perfume, earrings, royal doulton or lladro figurines depicting something she loves (quite expensive though but she'll keep it forever). Best wishes to both of you.

Usually jewellry is a great idea... probably something she won't wear on a regular basis, or something that she has the option of wearing all the time, or just when she feels like it like a diamond tennis bracelet: http://starjewelrysinc.com/inventory/uploads/1152_large.jpgOR if you want to get her something more useful and less personal, a gift certificate to her fave store could work. Or a beautifully framed picture of you and her that you had blown up would be beautiful and less expensive.

- a piece of jewelery that she'll be able to keep for ever (since she'll already be getting the wedding ring maybe a necklace, a bracelet, some earrings or even a watch). Or if she already has a lot of jewelery you could get her a really nice jewelery box to store it all in.-Get her a heart-shaped locket on a chain (in either silver or gold- whichever she wears) and put a small photo of you both on the inside (you may need to cut it to fit).-A special book with a nice message from you written on the inside cover (e.g. a special edition of her favourite book, a book of poetry or a book that reflects your feelings for her).-Something for the honeymoon- a silk cami set or something similar.

My husband bought me a necklace which was really nice, but if you want to be more original I had a star named for my husband. It came with a certificate as well and you could have it framed.

If she wears jewelry, that is a great choice. It is traditional to give the bride jewelry. Buy something within budget, that she can wear forever. Diamonds are always good, diamond solitare earrings, a tennis bracelet, a necklace perhaps with a heart pendant. Check out the jewelry stores before buying, prices and quality vary from store to store. Something engraved is nice, try Things Remembered at the mall, they sell heart shaped boxes to present the jewelry in. Engrave your name and hers, with the date of the wedding, or some sweet sentiment,like I love you. on it, too, if funds allow. Save the purses and perfume for another time, perhaps a shower present. You should pick out something that will last a lifetime.Congrats!
