not sure who to buy gifts for, we are paying for our whole wedding so do we...

We are buying thank you gifts for everyone in our bridal party. Hope this helps xXx

I bought for my mother, my mother in law, bridesmaids, flower girl.

We bought personalised gifts for both mums and dads, groomsmen and bridesmaids,our children where groomsmen and a bridesmaid so they got a little extra something too. We gave our gifts out the night before at the hotel as we all had a family meal, Also gave both mums a bouquet of flowers that matched the wedding flowers they were handed out in the speeches. It's personal preference just do what you feel best

I think the gifts aren't meant to be so much about the wedding but more parents ect who bought you up people that have been there or you love dearly. Cx

You buy gifts for whoever you want to, but really for those who have helped you on the day - bridesmaids, best man and ushers. You give gifts to parents, really as a thank you for raising you to be the people you are today.
We also gave a little gift to our harpist, who was my cousin and her dad for lugging the harp.
They don't have to be expensive, just a token of thanks

I've bought gifts for the wedding party. Not everyone does it but they've done alot for us.

We are buying for all bridal party and mog, wedding planner and makeup artist and my sister, anyone who has helped and supported us really xx

Im going out on a limb here as most people see it as tradition to buy the wedding party gifts... however I have done the planning and organising, bought the dresses, suits and accessories and paid for an expensive meal...
Being involved in my wedding is like my gift to them as it shows how special they are to me as I am having a small, intimate wedding.
We don't have much money and the wedding is taking all of our monies, plus our wedding party do not expect to receive gifts...
I do intend to knit beaded silk lace shawls for each of my bridesmaids in a different pattern so its individualized. I think this is much more special and a beautiful keepsake.
