What are YOU doing for everyone else?

Everyone in my life is being so wonderful and generous for the wedding and I really would like to make sure that I do the right thing by them too. Are there any special things you're doing for the important people in your life, not counting parent and bridal party gifts?

Like what gifts did you give to shower hostesses?
Did you provide anything for the girls that came for your bachelorette party?
Did you plan anything special for people for the day-after brunch?

Tia!

What are YOU doing for everyone else? - Long Island Weddings

My mom planned my shower so I am paying for her make-up and taking her to get a mani/pedi the day before our rehearsal dinner. I also got her and my FMIL tote bags, personalized hand-painted wine glasses, tumblers to use the morning of the wedding so they don't spill on their dresses and we ordered them albums through our photographer.

My bridal party was seriously incredible and my bachelorette party was amazing. One of my BM set up favors for all the girls and went so above and beyond - she even made a fake photo booth on the wall with props and everything! I'll post some pics later. The favors had nail polish, lip gloss, compact mirrors, nail files and then the typical bachelorette party items like penis straws, necklaces, etc. I don't I would have provided anything for the girls had it not been done for me - I just honestly had never thought about it. Usually I think that is something the bridal party takes care of.

We're having brunch at my house the day after - not at the hotel because everyone is leaving at different times. However, I think paying for a brunch is thank you enough - they are not cheap!

we just did gifts for parents, bridal party, and our readers for the ceremony... still thinking about ideas for our priest too since he will be invited to the rehearsal (he's a friend of my FH's from high school and just got ordained)... but we paid for his hotel room and I'm not sure if that's enough or not
