What did you/will you get for these gifts? I've been researching on etsy but can't really find anything =/

Parents of the Bride/Groom Gifts?
We are doing parent albums. I saw a cute picture frame on Etsy w/ a cute saying like always a little girl but today a bride or something to that effect. You could also do a GC to their favorite restaurant or a mini getaway for them depending on how much you want to spend.

we got the dads photo frames from etsy- large 'boards' that have a spot for pix later. fw's dad also gets the father of the bride dvd.
we got the moms hankies & something sentimental- mine got a throw blanket with a poem, hers got a mother & daughter statue that goes with the collection she already has
this was probably the hardest stuff to figure out!!!
ETA- all will get copies of albums/ dvd after

I went to things remembered, they had a great selection.
My mom loves butterflies so I got her a butterfly picture frame and a butterfly jewelry box. I also got her a memory foam pillow (she was jealous of my dad's) and a gift card to AC Moore (her fav store).
I got my dad engraved cufflinks to wear the day of, a NY Giants mug engraved w/ his name, a book about the Nasssau Coliseum (He is a former Isles season ticket holder and I grew up with him taking me to games all the time.)I also got him a gift certificate for Franks Steaks which is one of his fav restaurants.

This might be a dumb question, but does each parent get a gift or does each 'set' of parents get a gift? Or is either way ok?

I would imagine that either way is OK, depending on your relationship with everyone. I did individual gifts for my parents and MIL because I'm close to everyone.
I did embroidered handkerchiefs for my mom and MIL and cufflinks ('I love you Daddy / Always your little girl') for my dad. All from Etsy and all were wonderful.

I got my mom the Mother's Loving Touch keepsake from Lenox which I got from Exclusively Weddings and a MOM water globe from Things Remembered that I had engraved Thank You on and she can put a picture in the water globe. It came today and it is so beautiful. For my dad, I am not sure yet what to get him.

I'm going to get them each a little token gift and then FH and I want to send them on a cruise. They're paying for the majority of the wedding, my dress/veil, the entirety of my shower and I just found out my mom bought me all of my china today.
Honestly, I'd get them something bigger if I could.
