    Default Wedding present

    One of my mothers has just announced that she is getting married in 5 weeks time

    Could anyone recommend what to get them for a present.

    They are in their late twenty's and have a house, so they won't want any household stuff.
    They're not into wine glassess or photo frames.

    I am so stuck for ideas.

    Help

    I guess it depends on how much you want to spend, but here are a few ideas...
    www.Bunnydelicious.com do some lovely peronalised things. I had some photo albums made there for my mum and MIL at our wedding (I think ours is actually shown on their website! LOL).

    Or how about a Gemini candle from Partylite (take a look on ebay - there's usually some on there). They're candle holders which are connected like rings. I bought one for my friend's wedding.

    OR you could give them Debenhams or John Lewis vouchers so they could buy themselves something nice.... or how about making a voucher for a free evening of babysitting/day of childminding so they can have a day out on their own somewhere?

    Are they going on a honeymoon? We asked all our wedding guests to give us US dollars for our honeymoon which came in very handy! x

    One of my sets of parents got married last year and I got them one of the willow tree figurines, they loved it.

    Thank you for those ideas, I forgot about Willow Tree.

    I haven't been able to ask them for a list yet as she only told me last night and I haven't seen her since, but I will ask as I would like to get them something they want.
