I have a question about who we are supposed to select gifts for. So far we have things for the attendants and for my friends who are directing the wedding and photographing the wedding (and not charging us). We will probably get something for our families, but more of a sentimental gift as we are taking care of the wedding ourselves. Is there anyone else we are supposed to get gifts for (greeter, officiant, etc)?
Thank you!

Dear Gifts,
It is refreshing to read about someone concerned with making sure everyone is given something--very generous of you. Usually, you would give something to all of the attendants and those who assist with planning and implementation. All others, especially if they are compensated monetarily, are optional.

Dear Second Time Bride,
It sounds like you are already being very thoughtful and generous. If there anyone who you feel you forgot, you can always send them a framed wedding picture after the wedding.
All the best, Jodi R R Smith
