Last year, before I was engaged to my fiance I gave his family a big basket that was just filled with a variety of things that they all like. It was good and appropriate because I didn't know them too well. This year I have to step it up a notch.... I'm thinking about giving his 3 sisters (one teen 2 young adults) snuggies (those blankets with sleeves). I really think they would like it, and I don't think we're close enough for personal gifts. Any other ideas? Also...I honestly have no idea what to give his parents. We're also not too too close, but we're working on changing that (I live 4 hours away so its taking some time). Any ideas? Thanks!

I've got an easy out. Your fiance should purchase the gifts for his family . . . as supposedly he will know best what they would like. He puts both names . . . his name and your name . . . on the gifts as the givers. You do the same . . . taking care of the gifts for your side of the family. You add future hubby's name to your gifts. My advice? In gift-giving circumstances, act like you are already married. Buy one set of gifts for each side of the family. Put both bride's name and groom's name on the gifts as givers. By buying only one set of gifts (not two), you two can save all that extra money for the wedding.
