Help Needed with Gift Ideas
I need a little help with DH's younger sisters wedding present.
Thier RSVP is due back soon which got me thinking about the gift, it says here on the invite that they will have a wishing well at the reception, but I would prefer to send a gift rather than give a cash donation. However, since they are Very high income earners, and by the sounds of it have everything they need, where do I start on a gift idea?
DH suggested getting them nothing, since they didn't even get us a card for ours, but I would rather do the right thing. But with that in mind, I don't really want to spend a lot of money.....
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Re: Help Needed with Gift Ideas
Tough call. I feel for your husband -- I'd be very tempted not to get them anything either. I know you said you'd rather give a gift, but I think you should just give a card with a gift card inside to a favorite store.
But if they have a wishing well, I'd personally take advantage and just give them $20 or so. Whether you opt for the wishing well or a tangible gift, you're still spending money on them.
Do the creep.
Hi!
I would get them something that they have to look at often, which will remind them you are the bigger people that actually thought of them on their wedding day.... Maybe make them an album on shutterfly or something similar of pre-wedding celebrations? OR a personalized frame? Something not too expensive but that they will use and will remind them you got it for them.
A wedding themed picture frame is always easy and inexpensive. I know that I like to ones I recieved. Or maybe you could get them tickets to a show or gc for a restaurant for a night out.
I really like the idea of a personalised photo frame. I might look into where I can get one made. Maybe with the wedding date on it or something.
Thanks ladies!!!!
