Key Points

  • 'from my husband and me' should be there in place of 'from my husband and I'
  • The subjective pronoun (they, she etc) cannot be placed after the preposition.
    • My sister send it to they  (wrong)​
  • The objective pronoun (them, her) must be placed after the preposition
    • My sister send it to them (right)
  • The Objective pronoun is placed after the verb and acts as the object in the sentence.
    • The cake was baked by her. 
  • Here in the given sentence, 'from' is a preposition, and 'my husband and me' are the objects of the preposition. So objective case of  'I' should be used here.

The correct sentence is: This gift is from my husband and me on the auspicious occasion of your wedding.
