    Traditionally younger bridal party (bridesmaids, ushers, best man) a gift. Also the mother's some flowers it small token. That said, is not set in stone so is up to you but it is nice gesture for those who have supported you and given their time for your wedding

    Traditionally yes, used to be you gave mums gifts especially when the parents used to pay towards the wedding. I don't think grandparents are normally given a gift, but is upnto you. We just did the bridal party as we paid for our wedding ourselves and then a bunch of flowers for our mums

    For all women like my mum and step mum, I ordered flowers https://myexpressflowers.co.uk/ I know that their favorite flowers are lilies, this is the most universal gift. For bridesmaids I gave gift certificates for art therapy, they really liked it. Don't burden yourself, give gifts to whomever you would like to.

    Typically, wedding gifts are given to the newlyweds as a gesture of love, support, and congratulations on their marriage. Traditionally, wedding gifts are given by the guests attending the wedding ceremony or reception.

    However, there are some other people you might consider buying gifts for, depending on your relationship with the couple. For instance, you might choose to give a gift to the parents of the bride and groom, particularly if they have played a significant role in the wedding planning process or if you have a close relationship with them.

    Additionally, you might consider giving gifts to members of the wedding party, such as the bridesmaids and groomsmen, as a way to thank them for their involvement in the wedding. Ultimately, the decision of who to buy gifts for is up to you and depends on your personal relationship with the couple and their families. In such a case, it might not be possible to offer gifts for all the guests. For those, you can choose these gifts . These wedding gifts are very economical and unique as well.
