What is the etiquette on the bride and groom giving gifts to their parents? My fiancee said he never has heard of it and I say its UNHEARD of if gifts are not given to our parents, especially after everything they have done for us.
We get these questions often and I wonder how the recipient might feel if they were receiving a gift that was purchased because it was the right thing to do rather than because someone wanted to show gratitude or care for another human being. Please...remember...gifts are to be given to show care or love for someone...not because it's expected.
If you want to thank your parents for giving you the wedding of your dreams that's great. Choose a gift that they will treasure forever...a true keepsake of your wedding day. Show you thought as much about them as they are thinking of you during the planning process and beyond! You don't have to spend a lot of money (unless you wan to) to get a special something for a special someone. Just give a gift that shows you thought about them. Those are the gifts most treasured....especially by parents. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
