We're getting personalised compact mirrors for our bridesmaid and mums, and personalised tankards for the best man, ushers and dads. We wanted to get things that they can keep and use. Xx

I'm getting jewellery for my bridesmaids but that's all I've decided. I'm going to get my mum and mum-in-law flowers, but I prob wont' give them to them on the day (my mum lives in Ireland but the wedding's in Scotland, so I don't want her to have the bother of trying to get a big bunch of flowers home afterwards). Also, I'm going to get my brother a present because he's signing the register for me, but he's been best man twice before so already has a pocket watch and cufflinks, and he doesn't drink at all so don't want to get him a tankard or hip flask. I'm totally stuck on an idea for him.

We got necklaces for our bridesmaids (free with our wedding rings!), haven't thought about the others yet. We get a voucher for a night away in a hotel from our venue (it's a Ramada hotel) - I think I might give that to my Dad as he's helped us out financially and made vases for all the tables too.

We've got necklaces (crosses for my sisters, a heart for his sister) for the bridesmaids, with their own personalised silver boxes (from Confetti - cheap but not too obviously so, I hope!) The best man is getting an engraved pocket watch (if we ever get round to ordering one) and we've bought the older usher an engraved hip-flask. Still stuck for the younger usher - he's 17 and we want to get him something that he'll appreciate now but that he'll still want to use later in life! We're just getting the traditional flowers for the mums.

My bridsmaids are all getting their main prezzis the night before they have a bag containing; dressing gown with names and bridsmaid on them, a mug saying bridsmaid and our purple butterfly image, an options hot choc all different flavours so they can swap!, mini marshmallows, chocolate buiscits, a lip gloss,a tiara, braclet/cuff and a thank you card.then during the speechs we will hand them a small photo frame which i will have put a message in saying they can choose their fave pic of themselves and me on the day.
the boys will get in their bag cufflinks,a beer,beer glass,doritos and a mini bottle of aftershave and card.then during speeches they too will get photo frames but i think that will be more appriciated by their wags!lol
as for our parents they are getting baskets with a photo frame, wine,candle,bubble bath,a potted plant and other bits i think of between now and then.phew!it sounds alot but its not costing as much as it sounds!lol.

I found these gorgeous trinket boxes on ebay with shoes on the top, and as 2 of my bridesmaids are very "shoe" girls, I thought they'd be perfect and get them engraved with "thankyou for being my bridesmaid". My sisters not very girly so i'm not sure what to get her, i'll have to have a think. And my little niece i'll either get a teddy or might get her a trinket box too as she's growing into a very girly girl as well!!!

clairemugford asked this question on another thread:
I was just wondering what people are doing for gifts. when we ordered our wedding rings we have 3 free necklaces which are silver with a little heart on. i am thinking on giving these to the 3 little flower girls who are 2,3 and 7. i don't know tho.
i have no clue on best man or my 2 ushers
i also want to get my two little flower girls the doll that are in my photo blog which are personalised and cute too as i like those and the little bracelet which is in the photos too.
i have no clue for my bridesmaid either as she is the same age as me (22) and i really don't know what to get her!
I don't really want to spend too much money but the 2 little flower girls will be about 20.00 each with the doll and bracelet. the older flower girl who is 7 i will get a bracelet but then i don't know what else. and who knows for the other people!! our ushers are both mine n my hubby's brothers.

hello i am not too sure what to get my adult bridesmaid, my 7 yr old flower girl, my best man and my ushers.
i am getting my 2 little flower girls a butterfly bracelet, a thank u doll which is in my photo blog, a photo frame and they have a necklace which came free with my wedding rings.
the 7 year old so far has the necklace but not sure what else.
the ushers are our brothers and i was thinking along the lines of usher socks and cufflinks

Me and my H2b and half our attendants are fans of Supernatural so we're giving the bridesmaids Mary Winchester's bracelet (which is stunning) and for the men were giving them Dean Winchester's Neckless/Choker. For our page boy (my lil man) we're going to get him the trains Donald And Douglas (thomas the tank) simply because were marrying in scotland and they are the scottish twins!! Shall put them in his sporun to keep him occupied during ceremony...But we're un decided on what to get for our little bridesmaids xx

debbieandjaysbigday@lou81 we are thinking of getting a guitar pick to give as a gesture to H2B's best friends girlfriend - He passed away suddenly in march this year before we had chance to tell him about our engagement or to ask him to be a part of our big day! We really want to mark the occasion and honour his memory, so thought this would be really special. We are also going to the grave the day before to put a buttonhole on the graveside. I found the guitar picks on ebay - check my first (main) photoblog

I've found this really hard too but finally decided on these so far:
2 bridesmaids, pageboy (all aged 4) and bestman junior (aged 8) - embroidered cushions with their initial and a rose on which I'm making myself, hopefully something they will keep as well as practical for the day as they will know where to sit.
Mum, stepmum & mum-in-law - potted miniature rose and ivy plants which we're having as table centre pieces (there are 4 so I get one too), and a picture frame
Don't know yet what to get the dads and bestman.
I also want to get h2b's sister something, she's one of my best friends, I wouldn't have met Sam without her and we wouldn't be together if she hadn't said yes when I asked her permission to ask out her brother!

Ive just been starting to think about the gifts and have purchased a few...
-For the two Flower Girls we have purchased a beautiful pink and silver Princess Photograph frame and a me to you Bridesmaid bear.
-For The four adult bridesmaids were are getting them a silver plated photograph frame that will be engraves and on the day Im getting the photographer to take a photograph of them with their partners/husbands that I will then get a copy to give them to put in.
- For the parents (His Mum and Dad and my Step Mum and Dad) we are doing a joint present and buying them a silver plated frame which will be engraved and once we get the photographs from the photographer they can choose one that they like which we will get enlarged to go into the frame, will also be giving his Mum some flowers.
-For My Mum who has done so much for us over the past three years and for me over the years we are going to get a beautiful bouquet of flowers made up by our florist , an engraved photograph frame and I have bought a willow tree ornament for her called Mother and daughter as a gift from me.
We are still debating on gifts for the Best man and two ushers, and for our son who is page boy.
