well i don;t know what to do. i want to give my parenst something specail but just don't know what yet. as far as my fil well they haven;t given or offrered us a dime towards anything. my parents are even paying for the rehearsal dinner which my fil's are coming too. i feel funny handing out gifts to everyone but them but why should they get one for doing nothing.

We didnt get my parents anything (i don't speak with my dad, and my mom doesnt deserve anything)...but for FH's parents, we bought his mom the dress that she will wear to the wedding....will buy his dad a watch, and as a couple gift, we bought them the photo album that goes with our guestbook and FG basket (we also have one for ourselves).

We got everyone something different... based on how much they helped really shhhh
We got my mom a jewelry box & my dad really nice cuff links
and since my MIL didn't do hmmm ANYTHING to help, we got her an inexpensive but NICE frame, and we got DH's step-dad cheap cufflinks from TJ MAXX
