model with a fancy book mark.Add a personal note telling them
how they inspire you!

or hobby.

by having it monogrammed ( e.g. a comfy robe, towels, tote
bag,etc).

drawstring fabric bag with glued flowers, pearls, etc to create
a unique presentation & keepsake.

pictures, sentiments and other memorable items. Leave a few
pages that they can fill in with their own pictures of the
wedding!

love and sweet delights like a fancy hot chocolate imported
cookies, etc.

stationary, pen, stamps and envelope seals to create a
customized correspondence station.

thematic way (e.g. tuck a spa gift certificate in a terry robe,
a restaurant gift certificate in a recipe book based on that
cuisine,...etc).

potpourri bag. Just drop a bit of potpourri ( inside a
perforated plastic bag) into a sheer drawstring bag. For an
