Some gift help..

So I am done with the bridesmaids' gifts, and need some help with parents and readers (FH is thinking about his groomsmen gifts)

BMs- cosmetic cases, makeup, personalized wire hangers with their names, monogrammed button-up for getting ready, pearl earrings and pearl bracelet. Ideas for what to get my MOH as something extra in addition to this?

Parents: Picture frames- My parents says 'today a bride, tomorrow a wife, forever your little girl' and my FH's parents says 'today a groom, tomorrow a husband, forever your little boy' and we will put a baby pic of each of us in the frames. Still need ideas for what else to get because I feel like this isn't enough

Readers: My other sister (not in the bridal party by choice, long story lol) is doing one reading and my FH's godmother is doing the other reading. We got my FH's godmother a handkerchief so far (she bought these beautiful handkerchiefs for my parents and my FH's parents, so we though it would be nice to get her one). Don't know what to get my sister and what else to get my FH's godmother

We don't have any ring bearer or flower girl, so I think this is it. My FH's friend from HS just got ordained and is saying our mass for us, so do we get him a gift also?

thanks in advance for your help!!

Your BM gifts sound so nice - I would love to receive something like that! The parents gifts also sounds awesome.. maybe you can include gift certificates to their favorite restaurants if they have been helping out with the wedding or a bottle of their favorite expensive wine that they don't usually treat themselves to?

I would probably get FH's friend from HS small gift - maybe a gift certificate to Starbucks in a nice card?

Are you planning to do parent albums? Maybe that could be part of the gift? My mom is hard to shop for, so I'm looking into a CSA membership for her, like this one: https://goldenearthwormfarm.squarespace.com/vegetable-shares.

Maybe you could get your sister a cosmetic case with a gift card to Sephora? For your FH's godmother, maybe something from Lush? I love that store.

I would also get something nice for the officiant. My brother is officiating our ceremony. He loves tea, so I'm making him a basket with all different loose teas, a tea press, and raw Hawaiian honey from Teavana.
