Are you making an announcement Barb?
I'm not having kids for one billion years... I need something I can give them at the RD.

For my parents (who are paying for 95% of the wedding) 2 tickets to Broadway.com so they can go to any show they want. And after we get back from the HM taking them out to dinner
His Dad - A watch
His Mom - A big blanket with a mom poem that is personalized and a Lenox frame

Just going to give parent albums. We're paying for the wedding on our own so I have no room in my budget for all this gift giving. Paying for my mom's friends is enough!

Re: Other than parent albums....
besides the albums ... both of our fathers have passed so we got our moms' frames with the invitation text engraved and a pic will go on the other side ... thinking of getting an embroidered hankie for each too ...

Re: Other than parent albums....
I am seriously struggling for this, our parents are paying for literally everything when it comes to the wedding but they keep telling us they don't want us to waste money on them for the wedding but I feel terrible not giving them something

We;re paying for the entire wedding ourselves too.... his parents are paying for the RD and mine the flowers and my dress... should I not bother and just do something small?
