Gifts for parents

Malyssa, on September 15, 2022 at 14:52 Posted in Before the wedding 0 8

While I know the rule of thumb is "whatever makes you comfortable" or "whatever you can afford" or "whatever you want - its your day" but I'd love to hear what you did or what you plan on doing.

Did you and your partner give a gift (plan to give a gift) to the parents as a couple or individually?

    I got a print of me and my parents on my wedding day, plus I got my mom a wine tumbler (with some wine) and I got my dad a cufflinks set.

    We bought our parents their wedding outfits: tux for father in law and dresses for the moms.

    For my dad I got him a pocket square that says "Out of all the walks we have taken together this one is by far my favorite" with my wedding date on it. For my mom, a framed poem about how much she means to me. My fiance and I are gifting our respective parents ourselves.

    For my STBMOIL I made her a handkerchief with a saying, Slippers for when she gets ready with me and a frame that we will put our wedding picture in.

    My dad a handkerchief and a pocket watch.

    My soon to be father in law, a beer mug that says I survived my sons wedding so he can add it to his beer mug collection and a pocket watch.

    Very simple gifts with some meaning.
