Ok so 2 weeks until I have to goto a wedding for a pair of lizzys. Anyways I need gift ideas. The only thing I can come up with is batterys.( yeah I know where the corner is.) they already have all the normal wedding stuff. So I am looking for good ideas. That are not perverted(why am I asking here ?.).

As to the "Not perverted and why am I asking here", I have no response, though if you want a link to a sex shop in WPB, I can provide it. ;D
For me, I generally give kitchen stuff as a wedding gift. I figure it will get used. The Japanese have this thing about never giving knives as a gift as it symbolizes cutting off the friendship. I say BS to that. If neither are Japanese I'd reccomend an 8" Calphalon Santuko. Its a great knife and less than $50. It will last a long time. I love mine (check Macy's or any other of the usual suspects). Also, this time of year, hit Ross and TJ Max. You will find plenty of All Clad pans and the like for under a hundred bucks. Plus there are plenty of nice cutting boards and the like for a lot less than that. Its a thoughtful, but not intimate, gift they will use every day, and you won't have to spend big dollars buying it. Its a win, win in my books. Just a thought.

Can never go wrong with gift cards, or cash.
You DO realize I hope that "not perverted" disqualified 20 minutes worth of typing. ;D

Too bad you don’t want any perverted ideas have plenty of them.
Went to a wedding a few months ago and gave cash, cash is always king! I know it was the best gift at my wedding.
-
Yeah..go with cash.
It's always the right color, never the right size but everyone keeps it anyway.
-
A BIBLE!
or cash....

Trouble with cash is this. They know exactly how much you spent. Now, If you give them a $150 dollar pan that you paid thirty bucks for? Everyone is happy. At least down here in Florida, the rule of etiquette is this. You spend as much on the the gift as they spent buying you dinner and drinks at the reception. Its not a hard and and fast rule, but its the guideline. So shop accordingly.

That makes it hard for us, because to purchase a personal gift you really need to know the people. I guess you could go with some kind of art thing no one really knows how much it cost.
As for me I would have purchased this

but it did not come out in time.

Firstly are they hot looking?
Secondly if affirmative to first question then why no pics? :'(
Get them the ordinary run of the mill wedding present, they are lesbian not aliens we all need and use the same stuff.
If they have been together for yonks they probably have all the home stuff they need, if they thought about their friends they would have set up a wedding register to make it easy for ya, and provided some pics, hell they probably get gifts from complete strangers! :P

There's plenty of people trying to sell Twinkies on eBay...

A Pool Boy? A negligee (or two)? Reasonably priced shotgun,.. or lessons?
(I'm assuming the Family Bible was rejected, right.. :'()

Give them a list of good divorce lawyers!
If statistics matter, about 50% of all marriages fail! I'm sure it's no different for homosexuals...

A good cast iron skillet is a wedding gift idea I got from an older couple a while back. It seems the woman was from an abusive past and used her's to "even the odds" on the way out the door. ;)
But good quality cast iron is always going to be there if taken care of even if its never needed for self-defense.

Plus they get better with age if properly seasoned and treated. I have three that I inherited from my grand mother (two mini-pans that are perferct for two eggs) and a large one. They are as slippery as tephlon, and you can put them in the oven. The non-stick pans are great, but only last a few years till they get scratched and you need to replace it. The old cast iron just gets better by the year. Gee, might there be a lesson here? ;)

Mrs. T and I traditionally give a nice, tasteful 8X10 inch photo frame for the happy couple's official wedding picture. No points for creativity, but seldom do they get more than one.

Dildos.
Oh...is that perverted?
How about work boots? Or are they hot?

Hey, a pair of Doc Martins and a smile works for me, or at least it did when I was younger. ;D

Wome that work and are independant= hot. Its always been that way for me. I hate women that need every thing done for them. not that I mind doing that, I just don't think it should be demaned/ expected.

You never met my wife Kid!
She hasn't done shit in 28 years but she's still friggin hot!
;D ;D
I married well...after nearly a decade of kickin' the tires IYKWIM!

Its one of the reason I was attrached to my wife so much. while I do wait on her hand and foot when I can. She does not get all pissy if I don't.

And that's a winner Kid!
I don't ask anymore and I'm perfectly fine with it doing it myself but, my wife makes my coffee every morning! She's up with the mutt anyway. He's far more demanding than I am!
I'm one of the lucky ones...and it's a two way street!
