Here are a couple cute ideas all under $2. or you could check out some other sites for other ideas. The dollar stores are your best bet. They usually have nice stuff that can be dressed up cheap. Since it's summer a package of flower seeds in some tulle(wedding colors) in a mini flower pot would be cute, classy and inexpensive.

A bridal shower is NOT for things a bride will need on her honeymoon, unless the invitation clearly states that it's a lingerie shower.  The purpose of a bridal shower is to "shower" the couple with things they will need to equip their new home.  Showers and weddings are two separate events so that means two separate gifts.  Just get what you can afford, no one expects you to bankrupt yourself over gifts.\n\nI got a copy of The Joy Of Cooking at my shower and it's still one of my favorite gifts 12 years later.  I use it weekly.  Paula Deen on the Food Network has a really good gift idea.  She recommends that you give your favorite recipe and get everything together that you need to make the recipe including the pan.\n\nIf you have someone that you can go in on a gift with, I highly recommend a KitchenAid KFPW760OB 700-Watt 12-Cup Food Processor. It's about $200 at Amazon. I use this all the time.\n\nSome other things I use all the time are my crockpot and toaster oven. My husband and I use our toaster oven literally every day. Get the Black and Decker that holds a 12" pizza. I recommend a Versaware Crockpot.

1st - on cost - i would spend $35-$50 on a shower gift if you're going to spend that much on a wedding gift. \n\nOn what to get - is there a theme to the shower indicated on the invitation? if so, that'll help narrow it down (for my "honeymoon destination" shower, some people got themed gifts from the countries we were visiting. very cute and thoughtful). If not, then you can do one of two things: \n1. buy off the registry. sure fire way to get her something she wants. your safest bet. \n2. since it's in St. Helena, she's obviously into wine. do something wine-related. maybe a Carafe, engraved wine stoppers. something along those lines. \n\nas for what to wear - since it's in february it'll probably be held inside. would say a long skirt or a nice pants outfit. as long as you're comfortable.

Basket filled with bath salts, combs,toothpaste etc.\n3.) Basket filled with bandaids, thread and needle, cookies,snacks and water\n4.)Colorful bag with name of Bride and Groom filled with cupcakes, twinkies, gum, mints and 2 bottles of iced tea\nAnd believe me all were appreciated very much!

Here are a few suggestions for you:\n1. Lottery tickets in a blue organza bag\n2. Some sort of sea salt and herb recipe in a small blue bottle.  You can usually buy the bottles in bulk and that will save you a ton of money.\n3. If mom is a florist, then you could easily do small potted orchids.\n\nI went on the Martha Stewart wedding site, and the first thing that I saw was a beautiful white and blue cake.  But check out her ideas for favors.  Also one of my favortite sites, The Knot.  Both sites are below.\nHope this helps!

My wedding coming this September is country themed.  I'm using mason jars with either fresh flowers or floating candles for my centerpieces and my colors are black, white, and pink.  I'm also going to have horse shoes for decorations.  I'm still looking for white wedding boots though.  And if you have can drinks or beer at your wedding you could get a big metal wash tub and fill it with ice and put your drinks in that!   Congratulations!

Look around for minature teddy bears.... they come in lots of different price ranges but they would be cute favors or to add to a center peice.  Also look at craft stores and try the Baby favors... they have lots of teddy bear themes stuff for baby showers...and most of it is white (because people don't know what they are having.)  I would also check on ebay and see if you can buy maybe a "lot" of gunt bears... and dress them up like bridesmaids- in your colors and holding your color fake flowers.\nAlso if you like that idea- you could prob find cheap doll dress at walmart or on the internet to dress the bears up in.\nSounds like a lot of fun!  Good luck!

There are some cool games that you can play for the party, like a murder mystery party, or you could go for a theme like a Hawaiian theme and have a luau. Or get a hotel room for you girls, go swimming, rent a limo! Have fun!

You could make your own gift basket to be the same theme as her wedding.  Shower gels, lotion, candles, magazines, candies, champagne, picture frame.  Go to Wal-Mart, Target, Hobby Lobby, Kohls, etc. they should have all of the items listed above and more.

For the woman we all need some pampering. So I would suggest go to Dollar store get: back scrub brush, assorted bath salts, fizzy bath balls, tub pillow, bubble bath, candle, hot facial mask put in pretty basket with bow  I did this and it was a hit.\n\nGuys anything with food.  Perhaps a big bowl filled with assorted bags of chips salsa or assorted popcorn, goldfish crackers, or yummy cookies.

Do a $1 grab bag....everyone brings something from the dollar store, wraps it, and puts it in a grab bag.  During the night, you get to pick one out if you brought one in. \n\nChristmas Karaoke\n\nAsk your mom to go to orientaltrading.com for CHEAP party decor and favors...I mean CHEAP!  And CUTE!

Get a mini keg, those are fun, or do a scrapbook of the birthday party, keep all the labels of the bottles. I say do a birthday keg instead of a birthday cake. Or you could try lining up bottles in the shape of the numbers or you could make a cake that looks like a bottle of alcohol, wine liquer, beer, whatever. \n p.s. anyone that doesnt drink would think that it is not so fun after a while. but if you drink then the more the better!

something tasteful and personal, but not too personal. Lik a gift basket or something. Don't give the female bath products. Try tea and cookies instead. For the guy, some small tech thing is usually welcomed. you can get nice stuff of this nature without spending too much, too. www.gifts.com can help, too
