If a generic gift is what you have in mind, a wedding party collage frame may just be the perfect thing. This is basically a photo frame which holds about five pictures in all – one big photo slot in the centre with four around it. Names and “designations” can be engraved under each photo slot to indicate the people in the picture.

For example, under the main centre photo slot, you can engrave your names while the other photo slots will have “Mom & Dad”, “The In-Laws”, “Ladies-In-Waiting” and “Groomsmen” with the appropriate pictures in them. Funnier captions and nicknames can also be used to inject a little bit of fun and comedy. The collage frames makes for really good wedding party favors as they include everyone in the wedding and their significant roles on that day.
