We are getting my Dad an Ipad for wedding/father's day gift.
I don't know about anyone else yet!

I am getting my dad a hankie that says "thanks for walking by my side today and always" (not sure if I will be getting him anything else), and I am getting my mom one that says "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my Mommy you'll be" (from the Robert Munsch children's book....her favourite of our childhood books...she still has a copy)....and I am also probably going to get her the Pandora wedding cake charm.

FI says not to get his parents anything, because they aren't expecting anything and they know we are tight on the buget.....I am still debating whether to get them something small or not.

I have NO CLUE what to get FI.  So lost on this one....he wants me to buy his shoes and give them to him, but that's so not romantic...I am thinking we might just forego the day of presents and just write love notes instead.

For the GM, we wanted to do personalized cufflinks but then didn't end up getting french cuff shirts.  My brother still wears cufflinks all the time though so I might still get him some.  And get FI's brother a bottle of Jack Daniels (his favourite beverage)

As for BM, I am thinking of doing a BM kit full of all sorts of stuff, but I really don't think she would use most of it.  Might get her some jewellry instead???

The only gift that I have decided on so far is that I am getting FI custom cowboy boots made for his gift. 

I love those ideas for quotes on the hankies, but I'm still currently torn on whether or not I like the entire hanky idea.  So I still haven't decided on anything for any of the parents!

cfblechman

Shower hostess presents for FMIL and my mom: a nice candle for each with a holder. and then a nice bottle of wine for FMIL and chocolates for my mom

Bridal party: personalized tote bag, flip flops, bridesmaids shirts (that I made). Then a "extra" peronal present for each. FSIL: http://pinterest.com/pin/261631059572228144/ MOH: something similar except I painted a heart and wrote Family is forever. No matter the distance (since she is moving across the country this week ). And will put a picture or a collage of pictures of us cant decide yet. Other Bridesmaids: gift certificate to barn for riding lessons, trapeze lessons for my sister, and i dont know yet for the last one.

Groomsmen: ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Parents: Our package comes with coffee table books so one for My parents and one for FILs. Then have NO IDEA! I feel like I want to so something else for a tangable gift to give at the RD.

Here's my BM gifts:

GM:

Monogrammed flasks from TK shop

Parents are getting albums and I'm gonna get a hanky for my dad

Purple&7

We're getting our parents photo albums of the wedding/rehearsal/bridal portraits/shower. And we're going to them gift cards to their favorite restaurant until thier albums come in.

BM- We're paying for the day of hair, jewelry, and their nails.

GM- We still aren't sure yet, but probably gift cards.

My mom BAWLS when she reads this book, every single time.  I want to do the exact same thing for her - can I ask where you're getting the handkerchiefs embroidered?  Do you know yet?
