Re: readers

I don't plan on getting them gifts. Maybe I'm just rude but to have them speak for say two mins tops, I don't think so. Good thing for us, I don't think they'd ever even think of something like that.

I asked mine very recently because I wanted to meet with the priest first to figure out how many people we would need.. I asked the two people I consider to be the closest to me that are not in the BP and are not my birth mom and dad so I chose my godmother and my stepmother. My fh chose his cousin and sister (who is also a BM but we wanted to give her a special recognition). He is also getting his godmother to administer communion but she is a deacon so obviously only certain people can do that. HTH!

You dont have to get them anything extra if they are in the BP. If you do I think a high five will work!

our readers are our brothers and already part of the bp...so maybe a big hug will work too...

does anyone have suggestions on reading? i cant decide on anything...

Re: readers

FHs BIL is one reader and hes supposed to be a GM but his wife is sick so he didnt want to worry about leaving her, so he'll get a GM gift.....the other is a very close friend of ours, who is always very good to us so she got a large coach wristlet/clutch which wasabout $50
