Steverino,
Seems like you and I are in almost the same boat. I got the fiance her engagement ring and to think about how many guns I could have bought with that money. Anyway, she has been hinting at getting me a present for our engagement after we get married in July (I know it doesn't make sense, but right now we have so many bills coming in the door between the wedding and the remodel that I want to make sure we can pay all of them) and she has mentioned a Mont Blanc pen, watch, and tie clip combo that I have been looking at (i.e., carbon graphite Mont Blanc ballpoint, roller ball, watch, and tie clip), but the other day I thought it would be nice to get a Beretta 687 EL Gold instead. She wasn't to keen about that idea. So, I told her that I am buying a new handgun for myself at Christmas.
Regarding the engagement party and the bridal shower, I had to go to both and they were 4-5 hours away in New York City. About the only thing I did was carry presents to the cars. Luckily, I didn't have to stay for the bridal shower.
When are you getting married?
