How much is everyone spending on their FG and RB?

My FG and RB will be 4 by my wedding.

So far I bought them a book and a toy (flower girl barbie and a car).

I don't know what else to get. I know I need something else.

Any siuggestions and if you don't mind, how much are you spending on yours?

Thanks

this is what I was going to do too. I was even going to wait until after Easter and purchase a discounted Easter Basket and reassemble (w/o candy) and give that to them....

I had 2 flower girls....i got them each a necklace/bracelet/earrings set, made of freshwater pearls.
They were $50 each.
I didn't have a RB......I'm not sure about the boys.....that is tough. Perhaps ask the mom? Maybe some kind of fun electronic thing?

FH & I went a little nuts on my FG yetserday, but she's also my niece (she'll be almost 6 by the wedding)...she is a very giving and self-less child so i thought she deserved something nice & that she could grow into...i got her a white gold charm bracelet w/ a heart that i am engraving w/ her name on one side & our wedding date on the other...i figured i can also buy her a charm each year for her b-day..it was $150..(yeah i know, that's alot for a kid)..will post pics when i get it back engraved.

That sound beautiful. My FG is my FI's cousin's daughter. She isn't so sweet sorry to say. We love her to pieces, but she is in that selfish stage.

I still would like to get her something nice and I thought if jewelry, but I don' t think she is old enough yet.

I would spend the money too if I thought she would appreciate it.

Thanks for sharing!

I don't have FG, but my RB will be almost 5 when we get married.
I got him a cute Duffle Bag from the Disney Racing Cars movie, and inside I put a jersey shirt I got from Ebay, it says Ring Bearer on the front, and his last name on the back. I also put inside the bag a coloring book kit from Michaels.
Total I spent was about $45

I am having two flower girls (ages 3 & 7) and I bought them each a celtic cross ( each cross was $25) and plan on getting them a flower girl t-shirt or teddy bear.

Re: How much is everyone spending on their FG and RB?

I am probably spending about 50-75 each. You can also go to wrapwithus.com (They are located in Syosset if you want to go in person). They have fg & rb teddy bears and glass mugs for $5.99. I got those yesterday for my FG's & RB who will be 6 at the wedding.
