Re: Parents Gifts

They're getting the parent albums that come with our photo package, and will probably do a certificate to a restaurant, but nothing crazy. They know that we're trying to save for a home and we can't do anything elaborate...FH's parents are contributing more monetarily, but we could never give one side a better gift than the other because of that, it's not right. So it will be equitable...a small gesture, but equitable.

Parent albums, a framed enlargement and a card. We're paying for our wedding.

we are paying for it too ourselves, but I know that my parents would pay for it if they had money (which they dont, esp since my dad lost his job in Nov). I want to get them something that just says thank for your raising us and for their love and support

Yes, we are paying for our wedding ourselves as well, however my parents did give us a nice monetary gift for the wedding and my dad has been fixing up our apartment we just bought, they have done a lot for us

Re: Parents Gifts

Re: Parents Gifts

We're doing the parent album for my parents and a weekend away, out east at their favorite hotel, his mom gets NOTHING as she did nothing for our wedding, if she wants pictures she can pay for them herself

Re: Parents Gifts

My mom- Tara Belleek double frame, put in one side a pic of her and mom from my high school graduation
Dad- engraved silver double frame. it says Daddys girl and I put in a pic from a wedding of us dancing when I was 8, with the date underneath and then the blank frame has my wedding date.
I'm also going to get them a gift certificate to a restuarant. My parents have been amazing!

Fh's mom- Frame that is embroidered with My Son and I
Fh's dad- not sure
And then probably and gift certificate too.
They aren't paying for the wedding, but they are doing the rehearsal dinner and his mom is throwing me a big shower up here.
