We are having my SIL and FI's friend each do a reading at the mass. We are on the fence about getting gifts for them. What is everyone else doing?

I was thinking of giving wine, or a small gift like that.

Re: Are you giving gifts to your reader's?
yes, we will probably give something, but I am not sure what. One is a mutual male friend of FH and I, another is a friend of Fh, and the other is FH's Uncle. So... I do not know what to give. They will have Bouts too...but it is not really a gift

Our reader was my Cousin. I gave her a bottle of our favorite wine and a gorgeous autumn candle, which fits our theme.

I did a reading in a good friend's wedding a few years ago and she gave me a really pretty small silver, monogrammed jewelry box from red envelope. It was small - just holds rings or earrings but so pretty and is perfect for a little something for a reader!

Being that the readers have to be at the rehersal, or do they? Should you invite them to the rehersal dinner?

Our readers came to our Rehearsal Dinner and we gave them each a bottle of wine and a picture frame. They were very happy to have been included.

Ugh, I didn't even think about that...when all is said and done I feel like I'll be giving more gifts than receiving.

Mine were my 2 younger cousins - I gave them a picture frame with a picture from when we were little in it.

I have an engraved compact for one reader. Not sure about the other reader yet. Yes, anybody at the rehearsal is invited to the rehearsal dinner.
