    Great question.... I was also going to post this one!! I had thougths that since neither set of parents have ever been to Hawaii that it might even be nice to take them somewhere and do something with them instead - but since I've never been there before either, I have no clue what that would be LOL.

    I am stuck on this one too.  It's hard to think of anything to get our parents because if they want something - they just go buy it! 
    I'm thinking of trying to sneak over to my folks when they are at work and grab some of the old photo albums and scan and create a photo book of our family lives together up until the wedding.  I have thought about the hankerchiefs, and may get them, but I'm not that excited by those.  Otherwise, we were planning to possibly rent a limo and take our parents out for a really great dinner the day after the wedding - before we head off for another island. 
    Parents are tough....

    OMG, I had to click "quote" as the only way to post...I've been in Knottie withdrawals here, hehe.  

    Our gifts and wrapped and ready to go :) Four days! 

    For my parents, I have hankies made by a fantastic etsy artist (Kati @ ArtfulBeginnings), which say, "Today, I am a bride; tomorrow, a wife, forever your daughter and friend."  



    I also bought both sets of parents copies of our photo album guest book, which chronicles our travels up to the engagement.  PIB

    We didn't give them gifts at the time of the wedding, but their Christmas gifts are their photo albums, with a thank you mention in the back.

    I love the hankies; such a neat idea. We thought about the gifts some and so far we've decided to treat our parents to a helicopter tour of Oahu.
