    I got my flower girl and ring bearer silver bracelets that had their names on them. The girls had some pink glass beads around the clasp, while the boys had a leather strap. They were cute and cheap. I got them on etsy, the seller should be under my vendor reviews.

    I got them Build a Bears (flower girls got a bear with a white dress and veil, and the ring bearers got bears with tuxes) and a bunch of fun toys for $1 each that I found at Michael's.

    We asked Mom's what they wanted.  Something they could use at the wedding when they got bored.  FG wanted a crafty thing that she spent HOURS on at the wedding and RB wanted a DS game.
    It's time. Adoption saving and process started in November 2012.

    I made a backpack for the RB and a tote bag for the FG with their names on them. I put in a coloring book I made that explained all of the different events at the wedding, crayons, stickers, mini etch-a-sketchs I found at Target for $1 each, stuffed Sponge Bob characters, and tshirts that I made that said "King of the Ring" and "Flower Girl" in case they wanted to change out of their dressy clothes. There are some PIB. Basically, just stuff to keep them occupied during dinner that wouldn't be messy or annoying (no bouncy balls, nothing that made a sound or could be shot across the room or anything!). They both were carrying around their backpack/tote ALL night long and absolutely loved it.

    They were very young (2 and 4), so their Mom didn't want us to spend money on a memento that wouldn't mean anything to them at this point, so we went with the entertaining angle!

    I made a tote bag, purse and crayon cozy for the FG.  Will add a coloring book, crayons, a book, jewelry, hair bows and other small toys.  Will probably make a backpack or tote bag for the RB and add some small toys as well.  They are both 3 and so I wanted to give them something they could enjoy after the wedding.

    My junior bridesmaids and flower girl are getting personalized totes, flip flops from Old Navy for the reception (my nieces LOVE Old Navy), jewelry and I am paying to get their hair done (They love that stuff s much and I know they will use it all again).  The are 11 and 8 y/o so they are pretty easy. 

    As for our ringbearer, he is 5 y/o.  He loves to color and he loves transformers and stuff like that, so he will probably just get some toys.

    I gave gift cards to Toys R Us... I think it was a nice gift because then they can go buy whatever they want.
