Just wondering....

It's personal choice, I guess.

When we christened my son, I did buy gifts for the godparents...but, I don't think it's required.

I bought the godfather an ID bracelet and the godmother a locket to hold the baby's pictures.

I've been godmother to two different boys. The first time I didn't get a gift, but the second time, I got two gifts (a #1 Godmother charm and a Lenox trinket box I had been wanting...)

The honor is in being asked! The gift is just extra!

no parents I've known have ever given gifts to the godparents.

I am my niece's godmother and I received a nice locket.

Thanks for the input! I had found things I wanted to give each of them, but I wasn't sure if it was inappropriate or something.
