Need ideas for matchmakers

So my FH and I were set up on a blind date by a co-worker of mine. FH and her husband have known each other since they are about 13.

I feel like we should do something for them, but not sure what. Should I dedicate a song to them at the RH ?

I think a song would be a great idea and I am sure they would love that.

She has said (jokingly of course) that we should pay her a 'matchmaker fee'. I almost don't want to do anything, but lately she's been on the quiet side and I think its b/c I haven't shared or included her in any of the plans.

In a way I feel that I don't need to do anything.

What have others done for their matchmakers ?

Were you going to do the BoK toss? Perhaps instead you could formally hand it over to them as a couple and maybe say a few nice words in front of everyone.

are you doing a thank you toast? if so, you can thank them both for introducing you... like in When Harry met Sally.

my sister was set up by her co-worker; they didn't acknowledge it in any way at their wedding.

No, I wasn't doing a bok toss, but I really like the idea of the toast.

I'll mention that to FH.

Toast would definintely be lovely. Maybe instead of your bok, you could have a nice arrangement made just for them.

maybe you can ask them to do a toast they may be honored being that they are the matchmakers also would be interesting to hear what they have to say about you & fh dating my bm who played matchmaker is dying to say a toast for us HTH!

Thats a great idea, this way FH and I don't have to prepare the toast. I'll leave it up to him since its his BF.

Like I said, she's been a little cold towards me for the past month so it doesn't matter to me. Could be something totally unrelated, but still weird.

Thanks.

That is exactly what I was thinking... i think that would be a great jesture.... and say something to the effect of 'if it were not for them we would not be here today...'
