Re: Reader gifts

we are going to get them a little something as a thank you for being a part of the wedding ceremony - just don't know what yet.

Re: Reader gifts

I wanted to include them as well (they were my younger sisters who weren't in the BP). So, I got them both the same personalized tote as the rest of the BP, jeweled pic frames and necklaces to wear to the wedding. Along with a nice note of thanks. They loved it, it made them feel included.

Are the left over Aunt and Uncle married to each other? If they are...maybe you can get them a GC to a restaurant or something :)

Re: Reader gifts

I was a reader in my friend's wedding and they got me a little teddy bear (part of an inside joke) and a GC to the Disney store along with a nice card. I actually haven't used the GC so I don't know what's on it, but I would assume $25.

Re: Reader gifts

We had two readers. One was my sister, who was also my MOH, she did not get an additional reader gift because she already received the bridal party gift & a seperate MOH gift. The other reader, my 16 years old cousin, I gave a wallet with a Barnes & Nobles $50 gift card. The wallet was just her style & I know how much so loves to read. Her gift was a combined cost of $75.

Re: Reader gifts

Out of our 3 readers 2 of them were part of the bridal party and so they got their BP gifts. I got the one reader who was not in the BP a set of wine glasses (really simple and inexpensive + she and her DH are wine lovers). These are the specific glasses I got her
