You can get lovely wedding photo frames that are not to expensive, they can select a nice shot of themselves on the day to put in it.

Hi Trixie , I thought for a sec I'd lost you to a wedding A few good suggestions already but when I need to buy a gift , I've had some very lucky finds in the Enniskillen branch of the BELLEEK giftshops . Now I realise that's a bit far away from you but I'm guessing there will be one nearer Cork and they also do other brands like Ainsley of which one can buy a piece as a wedding gift etc and yer happy couple have an instant new hobby to buy other pieces of china to add to their collection you started for them . They don't need cost an arm n leg either .

Courtesy of the Tubes (californian rock group), a few suggestions...
...a heated kidney shaped pool,
a microwave oven--don't watch the food cook,
a Dyna-Gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home,
a kingsize Titanic unsinkable Molly Brown waterbed with polybendum,
a foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
real simulated Indian jewelry,
a Gucci shoetree,
a year's supply of antibiotics,
a personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth
and Bob Dylan's new unlisted phone number,
a beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
a dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams,
a new Matador,
a new mastadon,
a Maverick,
a Mustang,
a Montego,
a Merc Montclair,
a Mark IV,
a meteor,
a Mercedes,
an MG,
or a Malibu,
a Mort Moriarty,
a Maserati,
a Mac truck,
a Mazda,
a new Monza,
or a moped,
a Winnebago--Hell, a herd of Winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
or how about a McCulloch chainsaw,
a Las Vegas wedding,
a Mexican divorce,
a solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot,
or a baby's arm holding an apple?
(Or maybe, a gift voucher from Dunnes)...
