gift ideas?

I have a while, but I am at a complete loss on what to get my two nephews that will be in our wedding party. They aren't technically ring bearers- they will be holding a sign while walking down the aisle, right before I come down.

They will be 4 and 2.5 at the time of our wedding. I don't want to get them a t-shirt with their name on it...I would like to get them a small gift that is sentimental but that they actually like (they both already have monogramed piggybanks).

I got the little girls in the wedding party jewelry boxes with their names engraved and a piece of handmade jewelry for them to wear on the big day.

Any ideas?

You can't tell what kids will attach sentiment to, so don't bother.  Get them something they'll enjoy now.  Anything "keepsake" is likely to end up in a drawer.

I gave my ringbearer a build-a-bear.  It was Wally the Green Monster (Red Sox Mascot) and had it so it played his favorite song Monster Mash
