We were just talking about this. What's the etiquette? Do they each get a gift?

Here's what my hankys say - and they all have Love, Amanda and our wedding date underneath:

For my mom: "To dry your tears as you have always dried mine."

My dad: "You will always be the first man I ever loved."

FI's mom: "Thank you for raising the man of my dreams."

FI's dad: "Thank you for your example of a husband and father. I am blessed to marry your son."

Not for everyone but great for us!

That's awesome! nice quotes. My dad is a softie too so I think he deserves a hanky. My FI said that my dad cried when he asked for my hand in marriage :-) so cute!
