What to buy a ringbearer???

My nephew has everything a kid could have, toys, bonds, necklaces, bracelets I am at a total loss here.

I was thinking about an engraved framed picture of the three of us in a double frame thing that they could put a picture from the wedding in afterwards.

What are you all doing?

I don't think a little boy would be very excited about getting a picture frame. Are you trying to thank him or his mom? If its him, a child can never have enough toys! I'd go the fun route, and buy him another.

I do think it is a nice idea to make a gesture to his mom, who likely did some work to get him ready. She would love a photo, but more likely if it included you and hubby with the sibling, spouse and child.

We got our ring bearers engraved baseball bats. It had our last name where the logo would be, the boys' full name and the wedding date. They loved them. If I remember correctly the site was www.insignia.com. If not you can do a search on engraved baseball bats. If you need me to get you the site, just fm me and I will try to find it when I get home tonight.

sorry to get off the point but at first I thought it read - want to buy a ring bearer!!

What about tickets for him and his dad to a LI Ducks game? I think you can buy a gift cert for the amount of the tickets, and they can pick the date

Thats what we are doing for my nephews and their dad. They boys are RB and the dad is doing a reading

I got my ring bearer the engraved train, same as christy and jennbaby! I also saw a soccer ball bank which looked nice too!

I think I am going to get my nephew a ringbearer t- shirt. He tells everybody about the wedding-- I mean everybody and I think he will like the shirt. I will probably get him something else too but all he wants is to be able to wear the tux.

Tara, why don't you ask your brother or sister for suggestions. Since it's their child, they may be able to help with some ideas.

I guess because I'm tired, I didn't read your post correctly and I thought you said-
Want to buy a ringbearer? (As if you were selling someone.) I'm such a dope!

Anyway, I think the back pack is a cute idea, that's what I was going to suggest.
