Maybe a small gesture like a pocket mirror or.......I can't think of anything else. I am having my best friend that I grew up with and my FH's cousin, so I probably will get them something small like that. It's not completely necessary though.

We are giving gifts to our readers. It varies as to what people give. FH received a swiss army knife and FSIL gave her readers a nice pair of earrings. We are giving our readers coffee table art books--one's a photographer; another an architect and the other works in theater.

I am getting them Thank You plaques. Something small like that. Hallmark has them for 8 bucks each.

We gave them gifts. The woman got coach make-up bags and the guys got Kenneth Cole travel cases.

We did. We gave my brother a bottle of wine and a Peter Luger's steak package (it was also part birthday gift). And DH's niece a tote, flip flops & tank from AE (kinda a beachy theme).

I did not have a ring bearer, but my reders...I got them each a lennox frame to match my bridalframe. It is a foldy one & on one side I put a really nice copy of their reading (calligraphied on parchment paper) and on the other I put the picture of them reading it.

Our readers are our aunts. So we brought them this Then we are going to take a picture at the wedding with each aunt and give it to them to put in the frame. Our giftbearers are our godparents. We brought them this and are going to do the same thing with the picture.

Yes, our readers and gift bearers are FH's sisters and two close friends of the family. I bought FSIL's crystal heart shaped trinket boxes from Things Remembered, they were on sale for $12.99! And the two friends are guys so we're getting them monogrammed keychains from Things Remembered also.

I think we are getting them gift cards if we use friends, but maybe something else if we use our Godmothers as readers.
