Should I give gifts to the parents of my flower girl and for the ring bearer also?

And if so , what would be an appropriate gift?

Should I give gifts to the parents of my flower girl and for the ring bearer also?
No, I don't think that is necessary.





Presents to flower girl and ring bearer are appropriate. If you want to do something for their parents, then write them a nice thank you note for allowing their child to participate.
Reply:No, this isn't necessary. Just a gift to the flower girl and ring bearer and a nice thank you card to their parents is appropriate. Best wishes!
Reply:Giving gifts to the parents is completely optional - although not a lot of couples choose to do so. Gifts for the little ones is a better idea - to give them something to do during the reception.
Reply:No, just for the kids.
Reply:Stick to a gift for the kids, not the parents.





Depending on what your budget is, if you want to be formal, a simple gold necklace with a simple pendant (maybe a heart for her or religious symbol for both) would be appropriate.





You could also be the fun bride and make them gift bags of toys and goodies to keep them occupied if they act up during the wedding. Like little matchbox cars, coloring books and crayons, etc. If you want to give an actual gift and still be the fun bride, give them each a gift certificate for Toys R Us.
Reply:No I wouldnt
Reply:We just married two months ago and did not give anything to the parents of these two important people in our ceremony. We did give a gift to the kids however and in my opinion that is proper. As you are probably already aware wedding are expensive and you get $100 to death already, so why spend more then you need. The parents will be grateful that you have their kids in the ceremony and that is a great gift to them already. Best of luck and have a happy marriage.
Reply:You should only give gifts to the people in the wedding party.
Reply:No, it is not required that the parents get gifts from you. But if you feel you'd like to give them something by all means go for it. It would be nice if the children got a gift from you though.


Budget, limited or not, find out from their mothers what their children are interested in and take if from there.


Have a blessed wedding.
Reply:Well, you don't have to, but it's virtually never wrong to give someone a gift, and they have gone to some trouble and expense for your wedding, so I think it's a lovely thought.





As for what's appropriate, that really depends on what they like and what their interests are. Many adults would enjoy a bottle of good wine, a box of nice chocolates, etc. On the other hand, you might prefer to give them a gift card for their favorite restaurant, a DVD of a favorite movie, or a plant for their garden. A nicely framed photo of their children in the wedding would also be something most parents would enjoy.





The fact that you're giving a token of thanks is more important than the specific item or its price tag. Just try to think of something they'd like that fits in your budget. If all that you can really afford at that point is a greeting card with a personal message of thanks, then that's enough.





And as I said at the beginning, it's not rude or bad to skip this; more of a really terrific idea if you do decide to do something. These are the little touches that will make people remember you as a gracious bride.
Reply:No just the people who are actually in your wedding.
Reply:It is not necessary to give them gifts. A simple thank you for their help in your wedding will be enough.
