subject: Great Gift Ideas For Your Parents [print this page] You're certainly not obligated to gift you parents but it's a good and decent gesture and of course the least you can do to show them that you appreciate all the hard work they've put into raising you. There is no doubt that your parents helped you in a way to put to plan your wedding and make important decisions, comforted you when you were anxious and boosted you financially. Besides they're your parents.
Here are 5 great gift ideas for how you can say thanks to your mom and dad:
Night out or A weekend away
Say thanks to your parents for all the wedding planning stress they've endured by giving them a chance to relax. Arrange for a nice weekend away or a night on the town. You can opt for luxury with a glamorous weekend, or a simple night of dinner and a movie.
Thank you video
Put together a video using family photographs, starting with baby photos and including important things that your parents did for you such as family vacations, college, your home. At the end write a message saying "Thank you, not just for the wedding, but for everything."
Wedding photos Album
A classic parent gift is a photo album of wedding pictures. You might also give your favorite picture in a silver frame, engraved with the date or a sweet saying like "I'll always be your little girl."
Jewelry to Mom or Kerchier
A gift of jewelry is nice, but your mom will always remember the necklace she wore to your wedding. This could be cuff links, earrings, a pin, tie tack, or an embroidered handkerchief.
Heartfelt Thank You Note
Sometimes the simplest gift is the best one. You're at an important juncture in your life, and now is a great time to say thanks to your parents for getting you this far. If your parents are like mine, they'll love this one, and will be happy that you saved your money for something important.
Gifts for the mother of the bride
A double picture frame
Put a picture of the two of you from when you are younger on one side. Explain that a wedding day picture of the two of you will go on the other side. You can engrave it with the wedding date or a saying such as "I'll always be your little girl."
A gift certificate for an activity that the two of you like to do together
Moms sometimes worry that when their daughter gets married, she won't have much time to do mother-daughter activities. So give her the gift of your time! Whether it's tennis lessons, an hour at a pottery studio, or a big bag of spring bulbs with the promise to plant them together, your mom will love the idea of spending time with you.
It's hard to go wrong with jewelry. But make it extra special with a picture of the two of you inside a locket, a special phrase engraved on a bracelet or a bead for each of her children. I especially like this pea-in-a-pod necklace, with a pearl for each of Mom's children in it.
