Remember Polly Pockets from when we were young? Are those still around? If it's age-appropriate you might want to get something like that.

How old is your FG. I want to get my FG a coloring book also? Anyone know a site that sells them? I already got her a personalized frame and a hanky for when SHE gets married. It has a beautiful poem on it. But, I thought a coloring book would be fun too.

I love this hanky idea. Where did you get it? do you have a pic?

I also like the disposible camera scavenger hunt idea.

I saw once they gave the girl a crown and scepter (?) and the little girl loved it!!

my FGs will be 6 & 3. as far as a thank you gifts i am getting them US Savings Bonds, a bracelet to wear day of & will be making them each a jewelery box. (the hanky idea is very cute, however i already did something like that for their baptisms. the hat they wore to their baptism turns into a hanky for their something old at their wedding.)

i figured the basket could be a little something extra at the RH the night of to keep them occupied when they don't want to dance anymore. however, knowing them they will be dancing until about 10PM & then find a corner to fall asleep in. they are so cute when they sleep.
