Get a cute picnic basket filled up with picnic ware.
This is a memorable, elegant and practical gift for the one that has it all.
They sale this faboulus baskets along with real china, glasses, cutlery, cork screw, cheese cutter, cutting board etc, linnens etc. Add a nice blanket and a good wine.
This is an appropiate gift and they will have plenty of good memories using it.
I gifted this last summer and the couple loved it !!!(late fourties, had a furnished home, wealthy and had everything). I'm planning to getting another one for a wedding I'll be attending in Boston this fall.
Mind you they are not cheap (around $100 and up) but he couple will appretiate it, use it and remember it. Monogrammed towels get shelved. Gift cards are so impersonal.
I hope this helps
Goood luck

Well, if they've registered for gifts, your job is easier, just anything off their registry will suffice. If you want to make it more personal to them, maybe put together a scrapbook of them--contact brothers and sisters for pictures of them throughout their lives, and then also get pictures of them now as a couple. You could also give them gift certificates to their favorite restaurant/movie theater, etc. Or...you and the siblings could all go in together and get them a weekend getaway--we did that for my in laws 50th wedding anniversary. Good luck!

First of all, find out if they are registered anywhere. It could be that they don't have everything.
Second, a gift card is a good idea, either to a place you know they shop, or a generic Visa-type gift card.
If they were younger I'd say I-tunes, but maybe not!
Congratulations to them!

Gift cards for nice dinners are great presents. Is there a swanky restarunt your mom-in-law has mentioned wanting to try? A good friend of my husband and mine gave us a certificate for a very ritzy place in downtown, it was wonderful.

How about a gift card that simple. Buy them a prepaid Visa-american express put money on it and they can buy what ever they want from where ever they want

Candles are always a great wedding gift. If you have a PartyLite Consultant close by, give them a call.

gift cards to maybe some restuarants so they can go out for romantic dinners or to a place like linens and things so if they think of things they don't have or they need or they want to replace they can.
