We’re hiring suits from Debenham’s for our wedding but forgot to ask whether the shirts require cufflinks. We’re hiring Victorian winged-collar shirts. If you’ve hired these, can you remember?
I know I can always call Debs tomorrow but it would be handy to know tonight.

I’m pretty sure someone have such headache before. Now is the solution time.

GreboGuru asked:


I’m in final stages of preparing wedding plans, I urgently need some ideas on presents for my ushers. Suggestions of cufflinks, tankards, pocket watches, pen & pencil sets are a non starter. I need ideas for useful items that will be kept and used. Neither would ever use a tankard nor wear cufflinks or pocket watches. All wedding websites just stock same old items. Any thoughts people??

I’m leaving on Saturday for my wedding & honeymoon in Hawaii.

My fiance surprised me with a gift already (a card, a gorgeous bouquet of roses & a Coach handbag)

I know it’s hard for complete strangers to help me but I’m completely stumped. He buys EVERYTHING he wants. He’s a shopaholic.

He likes sports cars mostly. He has the iphone, he has the PS3, the games, the GPS system, he’s super picky with clothes & buys expensive stuff, he’s an artist (tattoo & also oil painting) but that’s his job so it’s not like a fun thing. He likes cufflinks & straight razors but I wouldn’t even know what’s good.

Anything at all? Maybe you’ve heard a cool idea recently? Thanks a million if you can help at all.
Thanks everyone! BESSIE you’re definitely on the right track. I bought him the shaving supplies last year but his watch (stupid expensive) just broke & he does like True Religion & Deisel. I bought him the cigars & lighter for Xmas but I could definitely get a nice ashtray. He dropped his & it chipped. THANKS A MILLION!
Hey SMART & SEXY no I don’t have money like that. That’s part of the problem. Champagne taste on a beer budget LOL! And yes he does have a car that he’s obsessed with. Yep this is a hard one.

Wow, fantastic answer from our blog reader. i won’t be able to think of such an answer.

No cufflinks, lighters, or mugs! I would like something thats around $100 that is functional. Any ideas?

well, if you ask me, get him a nice dinner!

I am wondering what to give my best man and groomsmen as gifts for the wedding? I am aware of the common ideas, flasks, cufflinks, glassware etc. but I would like some unique ideas if anyone has any? I do not want to spend a ton of money as the weddding and wedding budget is smaller. Thanks

Very well, let’s check out the response from our dear reader below.

The wedding is in Kenya later on this year, so want to get him something special to say thanks for travelling so far, but other than a silver key ring/pen or cufflinks (all of which he wouln’t use) I have run out of ideas.
What do you suggest?

Well, for the curious mind check out on the comment below. I am sure it helps to know more on how to deal with such situation.
