My fiancee and I decided not to go crazy with getting each other a wedding gift however, I feel like I should send her a little something the morning of the wedding day. Anyone have any ideas from past experience? I was thinking having one of my groomsmen bring her flowers but I feel like thats boring.

I think flowers would be lovely. It shows you were thinking about her and wanted her to know, to me anyway. Good luck and congrats.

I think it's a lovely idea to send her a token of your love on the morning of the wedding. The problem I see with flowers is that they will get lost in the shuffle.
A note on beautiful stationery telling her how much you love her would alone be enough. If you added something in that you know would mean something to her and that she could keep, whether a stuffed animal or a bracelet
would be nice.
I don't personally think intimate apparel would be the right thing just before the wedding--too intimate for while she's getting ready for the wedding. Her feelings could go either way on that.
It shouldn't be too expensive since you said you wouldn't give each other gifts, but most women would stiill like that feeling that they are treasured in an extra special way.

Oh that would be wonderfull. The morning of is so stressfull trying to get ready and make all the last minute details fit. Just imagine how wonderful it will be if in the middle of all of this she has to stop for a moment for some flowers from her hubby to be. I love that Idea!!! You are on a great start. Congrats and may you two have all the happiness that God can provide.

Women always like to get flowers, but if you are going on a honeymoon after the ceremony, then she won't really get a chance to enjoy them. You could get her a piece of jewelry that is pretty but inexpensive, like a ring of a heart with both of your birthstones or something with an engraving (today I marry my best friend, the date, two souls, one heart). I think that any woman would love a note listing how much you love her and why, or a list of all of the dreams that you have for your new life together. You could even do lots of little notes, one for each thing that you love about her, or one for each dream, and have her be able to find them throughout the wedding and honeymoon. For example, one could be delivered to her as she is getting ready with her girls, one could be in the limo, one could be taped under the plate of the cake that you feed each other, and on throughout the wedding and honeymoon. The last note could accompany a small jewelry item that she can treasure. James Avery has some nice options that are inexpensive, but symbolic. Good luck and congratulations!

Flowers would be really sweet. Here's another idea if you can pull it together in a hurry. Every bride knows that she should wear something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue, but very few know that the last line says "and a sixpence in my shoe." If you could find one, (there are websites that sell them or coin dealers sometimes have them) you could have it made into a necklace after the wedding that could be worn by your wife and then passed down to your daughter on the day of her wedding or given to your son to present to his bride.
Best wishes for every future happiness!

On the morning of our wedding we exchanged letters we had written for each other. It was so personal and something I was able to keep forever. The problem with flowers might be with the hustle and bustle of a wedding and the fact that there is probably going to be tons of flowers from the wedding it self. It might take away from the point you are trying to convey to you soon to be bride. I suggest something she can keep or save forever.

Yes, flowers are nice. If you think they are boring, and don't want to spend too much, how about a simple heart=shaped gold locket, on a gold chain?
At the K=Mart, they are less than $100, really nice ones. Try to find one online, you could get a good deal, maybe with a diamond in the center of the heart, etc., although shipping has to be now.
I love gold=lockets, and they are priced in all ranges. I don't know a woman whom doesn't love gold=lockets, and on her wedding day, it will be a special gift from you..

I think it's nice that you want to do something for her, but it is completely unnecessary. She'll have her wedding flowers already and she'll be so busy with last minute details and getting ready.
If you want to send something, how about a nice card with a sentiment written from the heart. That will mean more to her than flowers that will wilt & die.

Oh my God your a gentleman what else can i say to that. Flowers are maybe not a good idea cos she will maybe have enough of them on her wedding day. What about a piece of jewellery or a hand written note to say that you will love her forever. I hope you have a great and long marriage and she is a lucky woman to have found someone like you. Good Luck

On the morning of the wedding day....send something from Starbucks, like a bagel & coffee and include a loving note saying how much you are looking forward to this day and to see her in a white dress....then have one the the groomsmen deliver it to her. A bride gotta have something in her stomach knowing how nervous they get on wedding day (to avoid fainting in church!)
Good luck and Congrats!

What's boring about flowers? I think if you want to send her a little something, that's a terrific idea. Choose her favorite, write something sentimental in the card, and go to it.
Most ladies would be touched by such a thoughtful gesture.
Of course, a box of chocolates rarely goes amiss, either!
