Or, maybe you're shopping for your future father-in-law and you want to get him a thoughtful gift on your wedding day. From luxurious ideas like a pasta maker that also kneads bread to a last-minute hybrid bike you can easily order on Amazon, and a personalized ice cream kit the whole family will enjoy, the hunt for the perfect present (for all the men in your life, tbh!) ends here.
Ahead, you'll find 38 fun and unique gifts for every budget, from luxury ideas to inexpensive ones. (And yes, I promise there are a ton of options that'll even work for the father-in-law who has everything!)
