Gift for MOH and her hubby?

I live in Oklahoma City. My MOHlives in Louisiana and her husband has been absolutely amazing with regard to letting her come to a girls' weekend (kind of a bachelorette, but not completely for that purpose) in Kansas just two weeks before my wedding. They have two kids so it takes away from their family time - kind of a big deal.

Anyway, I am thinking that in lieu of a gift just for her, I might get something for them as a couple...maybe a gift certificate for a couples massage at a spa in their area or a nice dinner out? Is that something you all would appreciate or should I go ahead and get something just for her and offer him a heartfelt "thank you"?

    I think a gift that benefits both your friend and her husband is perfectly acceptable and kind. 

    On a side note, I love your attitude in that you are grateful for your friend being able to attend and understanding her sacrifices as opposed to thinking she should drop everything in her life to be there with you. Very refreshing, OP. 
  • I think that's a great idea!
  • Good points OP! For my BM and her husband they rarely get to go out due to budgetary constraints so I gave them gift cards to their favorite restaurant and the movies with enough for concessions. She actually squealed when they opened the envelope so it made me happy knowing they'd have a date night in the future.
  • I love that idea and very sweet of you to think of both of them. You're right, when you ask someone to be in your bridal party it's not just them that is impacted, but their family also.
