A frame w/ a beautiful poem in it- a 2 sided one so our wedding can (eventually) go in the other side. We're going to go out to dinner as well- just the 6 of us and possibly we'll take them to a play as well. We can't thank either set enough!

We got our parents these (see pic #1) and I made these (see pic #2) and I am buying my dad this

and putting a pic of him and I when I was younger in it. They are also getting a parent album and a DVD.

Here is what the poems say:

For my parents:
Mom & Dad –
I know I don’t say it often, and you can’t read my mind,
But as we get closer to my wedding day, I thought I should be inclined,
To tell you how special you are, and you mean the world to me
A son couldn’t have better parents, or a better family tree.
I have always felt very loved, even when I was in trouble.
I hope to pass on that love, to children of my own,
The example you set will be hard to follow, but I will not be alone.
I was once a little boy, that you raised with love and care
I have now become a man, and my life I am ready to share.
Lisa is my life, my best friend, my soulmate and confidante,
There is no other person, that I could ever want.
Soon we’ll be joined in marriage, for now and evermore,
I’ll be armed with the qualities you taught me, and, am now, thanking you for.
Please know that I might not say it, but my heart is full of love,
For the things I have, but mostly for, yourselves that you gave all of.
Thank you for all that you have done for me.
Love Your Son,
Michael

For my parents:
Mom & Dad –
Coming soon is the day, I've dreamed of all my life.
I will then be marrying, becoming Michael’s wife.
I wanted to tell you how special, you two are to me.
You have made me what I am, and am ready to be.
That night I will sleep, with dreams of bygone days,
My loving, carefree childhood, and of my childish ways.
Then I will awake, with dreams of things to come,
What my life will be, and who I will become.
With the morning I will have, emotions flowing free,
I just wanted you to know, I'll need you there with me
Your strength and love will guide me, as I become the bride,
As I start this precious journey, I need you by my side.
As I stand with Dad, at the beginning of the aisle
Please look at me dear Mom; I'll need to see your smile.
Your smile and Dad's arm will help to steady me,
As I take this blessed step, for God and all to see.
I'll always be your daughter, and your love I'll always need,
Though we are starting a new chapter, planting a new seed.
Michael is my love, my life, my everything to me,
And he will be beside me, as we tackle what will be.
So right before my wedding day, I say these words to you,
Hoping that you realize, you're in everything I do.
On my wedding day I will pledge to Michael, my very heart and soul,
You have helped to mold me, and he will make me whole.
Thank you for all that you have done for me.
Love Your Daughter,
Lisa

Re: What's everyone getting for the

my new question is what to get for my mother...my dad I think I am going to buy him a two fold picture frame one side with a pciture of me as a little girl and the other for a picture of him and me on my wedding day.
I would like it to be engraved as well.

We are giving them the parent albums, obviously but I also ordered the frame where the invitation is engraved on one side and then a picture goes on the other side. I also just ordered the wedding hankies for my parents which I will give to them separate.
