Gift Time
In ancient Rome, a groom would give his bride-to-be a ring, while she would present him with a toga. Today, jewelry, watches and cufflinks have replaced togas, but couples still exchange gifts. According to a recent Bridal Guide survey, 89% of couples plan to partake in the tradition. Here are a few tips to help you do it right.
Discuss your budget. Make sure you’re on the same page with your groom about how pricey the gifts will be—and stick to the agreement.
Personalize his gift. Have his monogram engraved on jewelry, make your own gift wrap or write a love letter to accompany it.
Choose a special moment. A few options: At the rehearsal dinner; on the wedding day before the ceremony, with the best man and maid of honor delivering the goods; or in private on your first morning as husband and wife. ~Natalie Gontcharova
