Hmm tough one! What about you get him a small toy or voucher so he can have something 'fun' and then maybe a watch or something he can keep for when he's that bit older, that will be practical as well as reminding him of the day?

My pageboy will be 5 and Im thinking of getting him a teddy with a jumper on that says, 'Thanks for being our pageboy'. That way he can keep it when he gets older and I might also get him a colouring book and some crayons tp keep him entertained during the reception and evening dance. Our flowergirl will be 10 and I havent a clue what to get her, maybe a nice necklace or something.

Default Help is possibly at hand!

My son is just 9 and he's being our pageboy and I bought him an ammonite (cost about £10) - he's mad about fossils and it's in a lovely presentation box and I know he will be thrilled with it. I found it at a craft market, but there are loads of crystal/gem shops around that do these.
hope that helps a bit

How about a disney cel drawing?

I found tons of cheap ones, which worked out once converted from dollars to approx £30 to £40...not sure how much you want to spend tho

I'll try find the page again.

Ours is mad about jewellery at the moment, so we've bought him a little ring, that he can wear/keep. I'd rather get him something he would enjoy than something he can stick on a shelf and look at though. We considered an engraved moneybox, but couldnt find anything suitable.

Love Dawn xx

we're going to the bear factory to get a ted made up with a birth certificate (wedding date for birthday) for our page boy.

loads of people keep teddies into adulthood - even men!!
