my cousin lives and work at London. she is coming home here at the Philippines to get married. she is marrying a guy from venezuela but also lives at London. they told me that she got married already at London for the guys relatives and now they are going to get married here at the Philippines for all the relatives from here. our grandparents are still strong and i think she will be doing this for them. when someone will get married my wife always think of some extra ordinary gifts but now it is not that easy to think of for we want to give something that we know that they will bring it with them when they go back to London. can you give me any suggestions? thank you in advance for the help

Hello! A warm good wish for your cousin's marriage from my side.You want to give some gift as a token of your love to her.Why don't you present a gold chain to her as a gift so that she can use it in her life and remember you any time.It is our custom to give such gift to our nearest and dearest one.thanx.

a gold chain for her? i cant give a wedding gift for her only.... if i will give her a gold chain then i need to buy one for her hubby as well. that will not be practical for i myself cant buy myself a gold chain. something memorable but affordable pal. thanks a lot for the response though your response is something that i can not even by for my wife

hi there my friend. i heard that too that your cousin cyndi is coming for a visit and will get married on the last week of november. well i make throw pillows and you know that. i can make a pillow case for her made out of cross stitch. but that would be a pillow with sunflowers and it says "tonight" and on the other side is "not tonight". get it? well this is only a suggestion i can make this if the price is right. lol.

I wud really call it the toughest task!! Selecting a gift for ur dear ones!! Hmmmmmm I would suggest you to go for a nice book if she has interests in reading. The better or the best to my knowledge is to gift them a good travelling bag. They can carry all their luggages in that. They'll not have any problem of carrying it even when they leave back to London!!
Anyways convey warm wishes to ur cousin on my behalf!!
Cheers
