See - I actually quite like that - but that's me  I'm all for keepsakes, etc.

I like it too Scatts but I'm not sure it's enough, he's my only sibling and even though i hav left it a bit late i want them to know they mean a lot to me.

I might get that and something else

You could try this website, Jen.

Yes, good idea.  I do think it's such an important day, it's nice to have a memento, so that and something else x

No idea, but Yogi's link has a nice selection Jen 

Its lovely they're getting married on the anniversary of Archie coming home ! 

Awww I really like that Jen Simple but classy  

I like it too, I'm just worried it will be really thin metal, the more I look at it the more i like it.

Yogi that's a nice site, thank you... i like this on there http://www.gettingpersonal.co....-diamante-swirls.htm

I'm sure they will love whatever you get Jen By way , how is Archie doing ? 

Yes, I'm all for simplicity too   It's nice 

He's fab Baz! Just started walking(ish) loads of teeth, babbling at me on facetime this morning He's page boy and I've seen a pic of him in his little suit! So cute

 Aww bet he's gawjuss!

He's come a long way since that tiny thing that you showed us your pics of  

Then again he's still a young thing that cries and shites  

Awwwwww .....how lovely  

  He's only one, to be fair 

Although i will say he is a pretty laid back little boy, i'll post some pics from the wedding of him in his suit

I like the frame Jen.  

I agree with the money/vouchers as gifts idea (most people don't need house gifts any more so saves people wasting money buying something the couple don't need) but would also want some keepsakes like the ones you are planning on.  

I know what I wanna say here, but can't put it into words without seeming like I will offend anyone   

I wont be offended Sprout. I think i have an idea of where you want to go... asking for money? Am i right?

You don't like the money as gifts ideas?

There was a debate on the radio the other day when we were travelling to hospital on that subject.  Lots of people don't agree with it at all and find it a bit rude to be asked but others are fine with it.  I suppose it's what you are comfortable with.  

No Jen,  although the idea of a photo frame is good,  I just think the horseshoe is a bit different 

See, I didn't want to offend anyone that suggested the photo frame  

Obviously it's your decision ultimately  

I think money or vouchers is a good idea Ells   

Hey i asked for help so all input is appreciated Sprout No one suggested the frame i picked that at a glance of the site Yogi posted

I was hoping someone would have something really quirky and personnal of an idea that i could steal and use as my own

Me too, but I'd like some trinkets too on the big day.  Nothing major just nice keepsakes.

Of course, but in the nicest possible way I just was suggesting the horseshoe might have been different than a photo frame  

Pam....shut up now     *departs fred* 

Umm... typed "wedding gifts" into Amazon  Any good? Cheap and cheerful 

http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=...ywords=wedding+gifts

Wouldn't trust the reviews though since finding out they're all FAKE 

Oh I wasn't saying anything about your post, just rambling on about how I like trinkets (aswell as money lol).

The horseshoe is very nice but I think Jen might be right about it being flimsy.  There's bound to be some sturdier ones online but yes, it's a nice little change from photo frames etc

(hehe I didn't even realise you might think I was disagreeing with you *baby brain* )

See, I'm in too deep now. I should just make my own little fred where I'm happy in myself and peeps can come visit me every now and again  

This is a bit naff but I loves it 

Aww they're cute Pengy What are they and where from?

Sprout you're fine here hun

Ells, that horse shoe is like £12.50!.... I've just been saying i might try and find a similar thing but better quality cos i do like it, I'm just worried about the quality of it.

  Will there be snacks and comfy seats Sprout?

Thank flippin gawd!! 

There will if you bring your own nuts and cushions 

  Charming !

they're key rings from the same site as your horseshoe
