I bought my mom and my FMIL each an embroidered hanky. I also bought a special Lenox statue for my mom. For my mom and her boyfriend and for FH's parents, we are thinking of doing gift certificates for a nice dinner (steakhouse or something). Still up in the air though...

Re: Parents gifts
I wanted to do picture frames but now I can't find any that I love so I think we are doing restaurant gift cards for a nice dinner and then we are giving them a card and will let them know that we are getting them albums made as well.

My mom is getting the same gifts as my bridesmaids, my father is getting one of those charm necklaces with photos on it of me and his father. Not sure what we are doing for the in-laws yet.

Gave my parents a gift card to their fav restaurant.
For my dad, I gave him a NY giants coffee mug engraved w/ his name, engraved cufflinks, and a book about the Nassau Coliseum (I grew up watching hockey w/ him).
For my mom I gave her a gift card to AC moore because she loves making jewelry, an engraved picture frame in t he shape of a butterfly (her fav), an engraved jewelry box w/ butterfly's and a memory foam pillow (gave my dad my old one when we got new ones on our registry and she was jealous LOL)
Try things remembered, they had really nice stuff that you can personalize.

I got my mom a pair of earrings to go with her dress. Want to get her something else, but don't know what.
I got my FMIL a photo tree from Things Remembered that has spaces for around 10 little pictures. We're going to put pics of the family in it, and leave a couple blank for future grandkids.
We have no idea what to get the dads.
