Gift Advice!!

Usually I am awesome at gifts! (B-days, Christmas, Graduation, Major Acheivements) But my Cousin's upcoming Wedding has me drawing blanks. (BTW it's this wknd haha)

Its my oldest Male Cousin's wedding. However, his FI Briana asked me to be a BM which was really sweet. I couldn't make it to her shower because I was already committed to another Wedding I was in. My Mom, Sister and I all went in a cooking ware for them. I was told they are registered at Target but Target doesn't know this. I went and couldn't find it in their computer.

So now I need to come up with something. My Mom is giving Cash and a Card. Suggestions for what I should give?

They are in their late 20s - They have 3 kids (1 together 2 are my Cousin's from a previous relationship) - A small apartment which has been taken over by Kids stuff. :)

I'd love to hear your ideas!!
TIA!

    Hmm, my first thought was some kind of furniture/storage piece to hide toys. But that might be kinda boring, and it can be difficult to pick that kind of stuff out for someone else.

    Have you asked any of your other relatives about registries or what they're getting? I would say money from you would be okay, but if you want to actually get them something, maybe you could get them gift cards or whatever is needed to have a date night. Are they into paintball? Movies? A certain restaurant? Even if it's not a "normal" wedding gift, I would say anything that they wouldn't spend the money on for themselves would be appreciated.

    Cash is always appreciated.  If they've got kids, they probably need it.

    Definitely a gift card or cash.  It's too hard to guess what they might need, especially if they aren't registered (who doesn't register!!) and will be getting a ton of stuff from people who are trying to come up with something unique, too.

    Lola I think they are registered but Target lost it. Somehow it got lost in their system? I was in a Wedding last month and the Bride said Target messed their's up.
