Ceremony Reader gift?

Are you getting gifts for the readers? I am having a full mass - I would like to get something small but have no idea what.

Any ideas? TIA

Re: Ceremony Reader gift?

I gave my readers gift at the rehearsal dinner when i gave out BP gifts
I got our aunt an engraved photo frame
A friend of the family 2 nice bottles of wine
One of my close friends from childhood I gave an engraved jewelry box

When I was a reader I got nice bottle of Patron.... my favorite

Hope this helped!

Re: Ceremony Reader gift?

I'm not having readers, but if I were, I would get them a pretty metalic bookmark from the Metropolitan Museum of Art...they're inexpensive (under $20) and they've got a variety of designs, so maybe you can find a design that suits each reader

Re: Ceremony Reader gift?

Thanks! Great suggestions! I will definitely look into that for one of my readers!!

Now, FH's 10 year old male cousin is doing a reading and my 17 year old male cousin is doing another reading as well - any ideas for younger guys? The bookmark idea may actually be great for FH's cousin (he is like a 40 yo man in a 10 year olds body)

Thanks again!!

The 17 year old is probably harder. While its not something he would really keep forever, I'd probably get him a video game or something. A gift certificate to his favorite store.

Most teenage boys (not all, of course) won't appreciate the sentimental stuff as much. I'd take the easy way out lol.

Good luck

Re: Ceremony Reader gift?

I am buying frames to suit each persons style/home and putting in a pic from the wedding so they will get the gift after the fact.
