Parents GiIfts

ok i am not worried about what to get my parents BUT i have a dilemna with my FH parents.

They are divorced. My FMIL has been wonderful. Came with me to several vendor appointments since my FH works nights and she is in the catering business. She is also paying for the photographer and DJ... BUT i can not say the same my FFIL. Nothing against him. we get along fine. but hasn't offered any help yet. He may surprise me. we still have about 10 months to go

i would really like to get something nice for FMIL but unsure what to get my FFIL.. if anything.. would that be rude?? i know i am not spending as much money on him as i am on my parents & FMIL..

Sorry a bit long...but a little sticky since they are divorced.

HELP

Don't worry or feel bad about any materialistic value.... if what you buy your parents & fmil comes from the heart, than they are going to love it!

As for ffil your going to have to get him a little something.... what i have no idea... i havent begun to think about it bc i still have a year & 11 months to go..... im sorry i couldnt be of more help.... good luck!

You should probably get him something small and just give the parents their gifts separately so he doesn't know what the others got.

A small token would be appropriate for each parent.............but i wouldnt do the gift giving in front of the other parents if you are spending more on one and not the other.

I wish I could get along with my FMIL!

she isn't perfect!! but she has been so helpful without being too pushy.. she will put her 2 cents in but in the end she always says its your wedding.
