help! need some gift ideas

Reader- FH's aunt. Age 60ish. teacher.

Cantor- our friend who is a new mom and newly ordained Rabbi is canting the sheva brachot at our ceremony.

Cousin- my mom's cousin is wrapping all 100+ of my favors for me, picking up my DOJ and my mom's dress and just doing everything. Early 60's, retired teacher.

DH and I are in love with Woodstock chimes - they are a windchime company and make a million different chimes, all different sounds, sizes (costs), and some of them are tuned precisely to particular pieces of music. We gave those to our readers who were older with established homes and 'have everything.'

edit: we didn't have time to buy online, so we found them at Hicks nursery in Westbury.

For the Cantor, since she's a new mom, what about a GC to get her nails done or some type of pampering? Or a picture frame or album for all the pictures of her new little one?

For the reader, does she drink wine? If she does, all teachers at this point in the year NEED a glass of wine If she doesn't, does she like to read? Many teachers since we (I'm a teacher too) have no opportunity to read during the year spend the summer catching up on good books! How about a GC for Barnes & Noble? Or if she has a Nook or Kindle a GC for that?

For the cousin...I would get her a picture frame and make sure to take a picture of her with you and your FH at the wedding for the frame.

Let us know what you decide!!

What about a gift card to dinner or something?
