Ok so I have a gift for my mom, but we still need a gift for FI's parents. FI is being zero help so I need some ideas please! His parents live in South Carolina so no gift cards.Also we need three gifts for readers. FI's Aunt and his Uncle (not a couple) and my Like a sister, but not really.Any help would be greatly appreciated as my wedding is quickly approaching!TIA!

    For FI's parents - if this isn't already included in your package, what about a parent's album?  I know it's not something you can give them at the rehearsal dinner (or whenever you were planning on giving them the gift), but I'm sure it's something they'll love. For the readers - if they're local, gift certificates to restuarants...for the women - mani/pedi/spa gift cards...

    For readers, we did engraved picture frames (though I like Andrea's ideas too).For FI's parents, eventhough they're out of town, you could still get them a GC to something in their area.

    For my mom, we are either paying for her hair to be done or paying for her hotel room the night of the wedding b/c she won't buy that for herself. For FI's parents we are paying for FI's mom's make up the day of and giving them a gift cert to Carrabba's. As for our reader, I have no idea. He's one of those guys who literally have everything and who probably wouldn't want an engaved frame....

    Thanks ladies. Readers are not local either...lol! See I don't want to do the parent albums because we are going to do those as Christmas presents. (Yes taking the easy way out this year!)Hmm I have no idea what to do. I feel like a gift card isn't much.

    This is kind of late...For our readers we did gift cards for amazon.comIt was a neutral gift for both our male and female readers and you can use it anywhere.For our parents we got these beautiful frames form Macy's and put our invite in one side and will give a pic from our wedding on the other.  Not too original but they loved it!Good luck with your search!
