My fiancee and I are going to have a nice older (Schwinn) styled bike hold a wicker type basket for people to put their wedding gifts in at our reception.

Anybody seen any lockable type wicker baskets for bikes? It doesn't even have to be lockable just closeable I guess. Also anybody seen any tastefull decorations for this type situation?

Hey man my wedding is going to be awesome!

So we want to throw a little of ourselves into it, is that so wrong?

 

[Westy]

I'd get switched if I got hitched on a bicycle built for two.

 

[Morryjg]

A bike basket is a wee bit small for wedding gifts isn't it? How about a rubbermaid taped to a BOB trailer?

I shouldn't be a prick. You only get married a few times in life, so enjoy yourselves!



Do you mean a basket for the cash envelopes? Pier One's prolly got something you could throw a lock on.

Thats what I thought before but my fiancee quickly informed me that people give money AT your wedding and the showers is typically when you get objects.

Maybe we're wrong.. I've only been to one wedding and no showers.

Ha, only a few times!

Yeah maybe pier one would be a good place to look.... funny... that YOU would suggest peir one Mr. Hater.

I still have to pick out a Tuxedo....

 

[Westy]

Like my loafers? Former gophers -
It was that or skin my chauffeurs,
But a greyhound fur tuxedo
Would be best

There will be loot to haul from the wedding itself. You could have the bike there for cards and stuff, but to be on the safe side have it right next to a table for the random gifts that show up. It's super cool when people have their gifts shipped to your house or just give them at showers. But, it's not the rule.

 

[stinkyboy]

I managed to show up for all 3 of my weddings... Get a tables(s) for gifts and they have these silky "bag/large purses" for envelopes, or a wicker jobby for the bikey idea.

Yeah we'll probably do that.

i tried to convince my wife that we should have registered @ the US treasury.

I have no idea what you just said.

Did you see other weddings with the bike idea I'm talking about?

I keep telling Aubrey we should register for all kinds of stupid stuff. I guess it's things that I will laugh at but people may actually buy...so she shot all my "funny" ideas down.

 

[stinkyboy]

1) Table(s) -----> For gifts to sit on.

2) Wicker Basket on Bike -----> For envelopes to reside in.

Ok gottcha! Makes sense... it would be cool to get a trailer for the bike to put the gifts on.

 

[stosh]

Something like this keeps coming into my head.

 

[biggins]

it would help get my uhhhh creative juices flowing quicker if you would post a picture of her butt.

 

[jimmydean]

I don't know that I have ever seen a bike basket with a lid, but the outdoor store down the road has a fish basket on display. It is the old school wicker one with a hole in the lid to drop your fish into. I would think you could take the strap off and mount it to the bars for the same look.

You posted that while I was typing.

Ha!

Brilliant minds think alike!!

 

[BikeGeek]

Why do you have to lock it, don't you trust your guests?

 

[stosh]

Like I said, it doesn't have LOCK it just need to have a latch.

I trust my guests but there are a lot of employees there too.

See my vest
See my vest
See my veeeeest


That does sound like a cool idea, stosh. We didn't have anything like that. We had a wedding coordinator, and when someone handed me an envelope, I'd hand it to her and tell her to bring it to our room like a good little slave.

 

[I Are Baboon]

We went to a wedding in Albany and someone stole a whole bunch of envelopes, including the one we brought that had $100 cash. From now on, we always write checks.

How friggin sickening to steal wedding gifts. :nonono: And the groom had to call everyone they didn't get a gift from to see if theirs was stolen. How awkward must THAT have been?

 

[narlus]

$100 says the groom was in on it.

:evil:

 

[stosh]

We just purchased our cake topper.

They didn't have one with the girl grabbing the groom by the nutts so we went with this one.
