Gifts for Your Wedding Attendants
The gifts that
are traditionally given to the wedding attendants are given as
tokens
of thanks to them for participating in your special day and for
all their help in bringing things together on your wedding day.
The gifts for the wedding party are usually given after the wedding
rehearsal dinner, but any time right before the wedding is appropriate.
You may choose to give all the attendants the same thing or something
different for each individual. The key idea is to give them something
they can use personally or treasure as a souvenir of your momentous
day, preferable both. Here are some great wedding party thank
you gift ideas:

your wedding party are:

It is just as important, if not more important
to show your appreciation to your parents or anyone else that
has helped with your wedding by giving them a thank you gift.
This can be done with a simple gift basket sent after the wedding
with a thoughtful note, or a gift that is very special and personalized
given to them on your wedding day or at the rehearsal dinner as
a token of your thanks for everything they have done for you for
