My BIL organised a surprise for my husband for our wedding - so it wasn't romantic, it was more bro-mantic . He got the captain of the Australian cricket team to send a congratulations telegram to my DH to be read out at our reception - boring for some (including me *cough cough*) but as you can see from my user name, DH is obsessed. Basically my BIL just emailed everyone and anyone he could think of that had connections (it all comes down to connections Trillian!) and it lead to the wife of the captain, which resulted in the messaged being faxed to my BIL from a hotel room in Sri Lanka the night before our wedding, and then the original copy being posted to us when he returned to the country. Quite sweet, I thought!
