Thanks to all who expressed an opinion about a gift for my BFF/Matron of Honor. I bought her a beautiful white cultured pearl and sterling silver Rosary (we became friends at our RC church - I'm in her choir, she's the Music Director, and we are Prayer/Rosary Partners). The wedding is in June so I thought pearls would be perfect and I don't think any of her Rosaries are real pearls. I also had a silver-plated trinket box made, engraved with her first name, Thank You for being my Matron of Honor, Love, my first name on the top. I'm also having made a porcelain ornament personalized with our names and the wedding date. In 2 weeks, we are having a "girls day" together at her house. I needed a Catholic annulment for my 1st marriage, which came through recently, & thanks to all her efforts and prayers, and her husband is away for a few days so we are going to celebrate (her hubby and she took me out for dinner when the annulment letter was received), and have a sort of "bridal shower", just us two - she's making a special dinner for us and put a bottle of champagne on ice just for this occasion! Now for my question: I am just dying to give her the Rosary gift and I should have it all in time for our Girls Day (she has some gifts for me too!), along with the ornament? Should I wait until closer to the wedding in June, (her birthday is in early May and I always take her out for a nice lunch) or hold onto the Rosary gift and just give her the ornament? I should also mention that this lady (and her husband who, btw, will be our wedding photographer - he's a retired printer and photographer) have been extremely kind and generous to me and to my husband especially in the past year. So, should I give her the "big gift" or just the ornament? Thanks!
