Hi girls,

I've not been on here for a few months so apologies if there have been recent threads like this!

My mum and dad have been so amazing with this wedding - the help and support they are giving us has been brilliant - i was trying to think of something extra special for them as a present to say thank you so much - does anyone have any ideas or inspiration?! they've been pretty amazing and i want to find a way of showing them that!

thanks,

Marie xxxx

    How about something that has an engraving with the date you got married and a thank you for everything you have done to get me here kinda thing.

    Hi Marie

    have you thought about a newspaper from the actual day your parents were married?....I did this and they loved it!

    or perhaps a photo album....I have some on my website....the last row....http://www.puddycards.co.uk/id102.htm.....though they can be made to fit in with your wedding theme & colours

    HTH

    I don't know what your budget is - we were thinking about a hotel/theatre break but then decided we'd rather have something they could keep so we got each set of parents these:
