    We bought our bm gold earrings so that she could wear them for the wedding. Our best man and usher are really into computers and gaming so we got them a gift card for 'game'. And we ordered a bouquet for each of the mothers.

    It was pointless buying them tankards or anything personal to the wedding - as they would have only been put at the back of a cupboard somewhere. At least with gift cards they got something that they could use and something they were interested in.

    i bought my teen bms and flower girl the same pearl bracelet for them to wear on the day (they're sisters) and I bought the adults a crystal necklace and bracelet, again for them to wear on the day. Adam is having his brother as best man so he is buying him a watch which he is going to get engraved on the back.
    I suppose we'll be buying the mums flowers, but at the moment there's only mine that has contributed anything!

    I will be buying the BM's their jewellery for the day, cuff links for the boys (maybe socks as well!) I might pay for their rooms at the hotel (practical gift I know) depending on budget closer to the time
