parents gifts

We are of course giving the parents a copy of the wedding book for themselves. Should we get them something else also???

Are they helping to pay? If they are, they should definitely get something else. If not, I would still get them a little something extra. They did raise you two after all.

LOL -- they are some what helping a few $100.00 but that is it-- I guess a little something would be good- any suggestions??

A friend of mine blew up old pic's of herself when she was a baby with her parents and the same for her husband...the parents loved it. The moms were hysterical!

okay so what if one set of parents are not contributing financially-- do you still get them a gift? I mean if you give the gifts out at the rehearsal dinner then they might feel left out if you only give it to one, right?

Re: parents gifts

well that is why you get both something little - AN dI guess if one does give more -- at a diff time you can give them a little something more
