how bad is it ...

if we don't buy the FG a gift? Her bday was yesterday and we gave her a FG t-shirt (and 2 toys) ... and she'll be getting a coloring book and crayons at the wedding (same as all other kids)

she's 3 years old, in case you're wondering.

Re: how bad is it ...

IDK being that she is three she might feel left out when you are giving gifts to your BP. I would reconsider. Even if it is something small.

Re: how bad is it ...

i would still give her something small at the rd (or whenever you are giving the rest of your BP their gifts) this way she still feels special and included since she is part of your wedding

Re: how bad is it ...

I dunno...I still think you should get her a little something the day-of or at the RD...maybe the bride barbie? Or make a build-a-bear for her that's dressed as a bride?

Re: how bad is it ...

well she wouldn't really be around when i give out the gifts ... BP is getting gifts first thing in the morning, the day of the wedding and the FG won't be coming until after that so she'll have no idea.

You dont have to but I think even something small would be thoughtful?

Re: how bad is it ...

Even so...I'd give her something. Even something smaller than what I suggested above is fine. Maybe a necklace and/or earrings (if her ears are pierced, of course)...you could get something inexpensive at Target for sure.

we kind of consider that FG Shirt as her gift .... i suppose i could look into the Bride Barbie or Build-a-bear that Kris suggested

thanks everyone!

Re: how bad is it ...

if youre giviing all the kids in the BP the same gift, i think thats OK. as long as they are given at the same time... because kids can be very jealous. (which you prob already know)

Re: how bad is it ...

I think you should get her something...it doesnt have to be expensive. I'm sure her parents will appreciate it.

FSD is our FG...but we didn't spend a lot of money on her. We got her jewelry for the day of (which was like $30) and we got her a cinderella and prince charming wedding doll set...its both of them in their wedding attire...that was only $30 as well.

Go to Michaels and look in the dollar bins!! They have all these little arts and craftsy stuff plus like princess wands and bubbles and Disney matching game cards. There's plenty of stuff- you could FILL a bag for probably $10-$20 max.

This is what I did for FG & RB. They're 6 and 4. I got lots of fun artsy stuff to keep them occupied. I also got FG a murano glass beaded bracelet, but she's a little older than yours...
