Yup you caught me! I sell cuff links and cuff link accessories. Next time I'll go 500 post before blowing my cover.

Don't get mad at me though. Cufflinks sales is a cut throat business, if you don't make quota the cufflink mafia will put a hit on you.

You did a good job Starfish.
You had us all fooled.


On a serious note--I think I might buy a pair of those locket cuff links. Is that a good deal? I'm not a cuff link expert.

I was happy with how the came out. I was worried that I would not be able to have the photos made small enough to fit in them and still be clear but luckily I was. I don't care if he doesnt get me anything, I just wanted to give him something special.
Now... GO BUY MY CUFF LINKS!!!! lol

You're such a good vendor Starfish, I might go buy 5!


My major concern is also getting the pictures small enough yet still clear. Any words of wisdom from the best vendor around?

Maybe I should get some with my business logo on it? I don't know if that would be vain or not though, haha? Sounds cool.

Maybe you should pay for your advertisement. Instead of stealing from Brides. I have reported you to the mods

I bought a leather-bound journal (for like $15 from Walgreens) several months ago, and found lots of quotations and poems about love that I copied into it. Then, the last page was the wedding vows that we had written to each other.

THank you for the feedback. I was just curious. We're only exchanging rings, because the wedding and honeymoon are very expensive. Plus we really had no idea what to do for each other beyond the rings! I am tempted to get him personalised socks to wear on the wedding day, he loves socks. And a ukulele for the honeymoon because 1)he wants one, 2)he'll miss his guitar while we're away.

I was thinking about getting my husband a nice watch. We are renewing our wedding vows for our 14th wedding anniv. I just don't want him to feel bad if he dosen't get me anything.

My FH is getting me a dog. Well, I am adopting a dog and the gift is I get to pick out the one I want. That is his present to me (and to our other dog who misses her brother).

FH and I aren't doing gifts, but have now decided not to because we ended up having to pay more for some things to cover the money my mom had promised us (she recently lost her job). Though, the morning of I plan on delivering breakfast to the hotel he will be staying in with his parents the night before from this amazing donut shop in the town we're getting married in, along with a note saying how excited I am.

Our gifts to each other our the wedding rings. We aren't putting them into our wedding budget because they will be personal gifts from one to the other. I am buying his and he is buying mine. I am getting his engraved though with "hugs & smoochies" inside because that is the last thing that we say to each other each time we talk on the phone and say good-bye when ever one of goes home (we are currently residing in different states) even after we say I love you and bye.
Friendship is a wonderful base for love...
