Gifts?

It is definitely a thoughtful and nice touch to get a little something for both sets of parents if you have a good relationship with them but it's not a requirement. I see it as thank you for all you ve done for me. How big or small the gift is totally up to you, it can be as simple as a hand written note and maybe anice framed photo of the two of you or you can get jewelry, restaurant gift cards, something related to a hobby they have, or a basket of favorite their things. Do what feels best for you 💜

Gifts for parents are a newer thing. They fall in the category of sweet to do but definitely not mandatory.


For my wedding, I gave my mom (MIL was deceased) an embroidered handkerchief that said Mother of the Bride, the date, and “For happy tears only.” I got the father’s matching tie tacks with Father of the Bride/Groom, and on my dad’s I added on the back “Of all our walks, this one is my favorite.”
