Re: Parent gifts

an invitation to my wedding...

and a parent album...end story. if they were paying for anything then i'd probably do something else - like a frame or something. they wouldn't want us to spend the money though anyhow even if they were footing the bill.

Re: Parent gifts

FH and my parents ARE paying for most of the wedding and they're not getting any gifts ... they'll get a photo album (from Picaboo or snapfish or something - nothing fancy), but that's it!

Re: Parent gifts

Definitely doing photo albums. Maybe albums of the E-pics right before the wedding, and albums from the wedding later on. Also playing with the idea of doing gift certificates for dinner or for show tickets or something.

My parents are paying for most of the wedding we were thinking of getting them a mini-vacation maybe to atlantic city or paying for plane tickets to our townhouse down in myrtle beach

Re: Parent gifts

were doing parent albums but they are clones of ours... we got a 8x8 for my mom and a 12x12 for FH parents because they are paying for it.

Re: Parent gifts

we are doing parent albums that consist of our e-pics and wedding photos. We may do a personalized frame as well but not sure.

For my dad a nice digital camera.
For my mom a weekend getaway to a B and B.
btw, they are paying for the wedding.

Re: Parent gifts

My parents are paying for the whole shebang. My FH is going to build them a new deck as a thank you. Theirs is in need of repairs, and FH builds things for a living, so we thought it would be perfect. Although that probably doesn't help you much

For his mom: a Things Remembered Charm Braclet

For mine: a precious moment (bride and mom) and a necklace.

Re: Parent gifts

We paid for 99% of the wedding ourselves. We got the parents 8x10 engraved frames from Things Remembered. Beware: the engraving cost more than the frame!

I'm also now working on kodakgallery photo books for them.
