Children in Weddings Guide: Gift Ideas
It's always a good idea to get children a
small gift for participating in your wedding. It does not have to be elaborate
and can consist of anything that you deem appropriate for that particular child.
Whether this is based on age or the child's personal tastes is a determination
you will have to make. There are a number of gifts that have been given to
children in weddings. They can range in cost from a few dollars to expensive
items. Again, it is the thought that you feel the children are important in the
wedding that means the most to them. A gift is not required, it simply
reinforces the idea of their importance in the event. In other words, it makes
them feel special. Below are a few of the ideas that I have seen.
Jewelry - Many couples choose to give junior bridesmaids their first set
of pearls or other nice jewelry. Prices are very reasonable for simple items
and they need not cost a lot. As for junior ushers or junior groomsmen,
adornments such as tie tacks or
cuff links can make them feel grown up.
Heirlooms - Some couples choose to give heirloom gifts. These might
include silver (or silver plated) jewelry or
treasure boxes,
silver picture frames or any item that can be "passed down" to their own
children. The heirloom gifts are generally the most expensive as they are
intended as heirlooms.
Memories - Other couples choose to give gifts of memories. These gifts
can include such items as photos of the couple with the child, a scrapbook of
the wedding or even a book with details of the wedding (and the child's role in
it).
Other Gift
Ideas - Other gift ideas
for children may include such things as a set of bride & groom teddy bears,
t-shirts (I was the ring-bearer, etc) or books about children in weddings.
