If you want to give them something to keep that won't be stuffed in a drawer or drunk and disposed off, why not a small framed print? A quality photograph of something with a collective meaning could be classy if you pick it right. If you are having a stag do, a reference to where you go could work.

A quality gift is memorable, not necessarily expensive.

What, are you saying throwing lots of money at something isn't the solution?

I like the idea of a good bottle of something. Practical. No need to be unique about it. It's just a wedding in a blur of weddings.

Yeah.

My wedding is going to be unremarkable. Just like every British wedding I've attended. Church. Marquee. Morning dress. Women on heels trying to walk through muddy fields. It'll probably rain. Lots of good booze. Indifferent food.

We don't go for the 'personal touch'.
