Q. Did you get your new wife/husband a gift on your wedding day? (Not including the wedding night)
A. This is entirely up to the couple. We didn't. I didn't even think of it, but in retrospect: in comparison to the rings, promising ourselves to each other for life, and the wedding night, any other gift I gave would have seemed pretty token in comparison.
What should I put as a personal engraving on a picture frame containing wedding photos for my dad?
Q. My fiance wants to give our parents picture frames as gifts on our wedding day. We both have divorced parents, so 4 frames will be given. The frames contain room for two photos, one from the wedding day and one of me as a boy. The frame can be personally engraved, but all the ideas we come up with just sound kind of silly for a picture frame being given to the old man. Anyone have any ideas?
A. "Thank you for my wonderful life"
What kind of a coin should I buy my fiance for our wedding day?
Q. I would love to buy my fiance a coin for our wedding day as a gift to him. He loves coins and collecting them. What kind of a coin should I buy my fiance that is meaningful?
My fiance and I are exchanging gifts to each other on our wedding day. It's something we both want to do. For us, we want to do something so personal for each other. He loves coins, so I want to get him one! :)

A. Well, coins can vary greatly in price, so you need to determine a budget. You also need to inquire (or just take a quick peek if you want to keep it a surprise) at what's already in his collection. If you can afford it, a nice gold or silver coin might be nice as a little "investment" in your future. Even a small platinum coin (like 1/10oz) would probably be something he wouldn't expect, and chances are, something he definately doesn't have (plus wouldn't be too expensive). Precious metal coins are minted yearly, so it might be nice to give him something of high quality, minted in the year you got married.
If he only collects really old or rare coins, you'll just have to see what he doesn't have, or look for one he's really been wanting. There are tons of coin dealers out there, probably even a few where you live, so you just have to do a little research to find a good source (and a knowledgable coin dealer can help you select one or help find one he's been wanting).
My one last thought is a specific coin called a "sixpence". You know the old "traditions" of something old, something new, something borrowed something blue and a SIXPENCE in her shoe? Perhaps after the wedding (and after you've washed it lol) you could gift him with your little "good luck charm" from your wedding day. Sixpences are easy to find, cheap, and although not terribly collectable, there would certainly be a sentimental value to him, as it was part of your wedding day. My husband isn't a serious coin collector, but he does like them (and has a small collection). I gave him the sixpence I wore in my shoe after our wedding, since I didn't know what else to do with it, and he really seemed to appreciate it. Just a thought there.
