I bought a house on my own shortly before we got married... Both names are now on mortgage but I paid the down. I also paid off her debts which totalled 18k a year or so after marriage. Start a clean slate so to speak...
Not sure if that counts.....
Other than that... There is a necklace for 120 she still wears today. Not really extravagant spenders...

Yes clearing her debt does count and it's huge infact.
It's a huge weight/burden lifted off her shoulders and will make her both enjoy life more and be happier all round... So I can't think of many things that trump giving her a better life mate and making it easier for her
In terms of monetary value, the most expensive he gave me was my engagement ring. In terms of everyday value, that would be my George Foreman grill and Kitchenaid stand mixer.
Not romantic or sexy by any means, but two things I really wanted and still put to good use years later.

That's the thing my love
Some gifts don't have to be romantic... But it's still something they can appreciate as its actually being used
Only the best will do .... I wouldn't treat her any less
It's FAR more expensive than I'd usually end up spending on a gift but I had a touch at work plus she was quite down as she lost an uncle a few weeks before so thought I'd treat her

I would LOVE a Kitchenaid stand mixer, I think that is such a thoughtful gift. Also, usayit, having debt paid off is one of the most generous gifts I think anyone could receive. Wow!
I have had a few fancy dinners with past bfs but no gifts (yet!)
Other than the Gold Visa Card, I did give her something valuable, and tangible, before marriage. I bought her a fur coat in mink.
But after we moved to Hawaii, there is absolutely no way she can put it on. And whenever it is getting humid, she has to pay extra for storage to avoid mildew.
