Thank you gift suggestions

I need some help. I was in a wedding last weekend and stayed with the bride's family for about a week before the wedding. Her parents were so wonderful and, despite the fact that they had a lot of last minute stuff to do for the wedding, were always willing to drive me places. They picked me up from the airport and dropped me off after the wedding, took me out to dinner a couple of times, and even paid for my nail appointment which shocked me! Anyways I want to mail them a little something as a thank you gift but nothing comes to mind. If anyone has any suggestions I'd love to hear them. Please keep in mind that I'll be mailing this so it cant be too heavy or easily damagable.

So I'm thinking I might make a socal themed gift basket and mail it. I was thinking of getting california wine but I cant think of anything else that sticks out as "socal." Suggestions?

FTD.com. Flowers are always a much-appreciated gift and thank you.

I like the gift certificate idea, too - now that all the fuss is over, they might enjoy a night out. Another good gift is some very special guest towels - since they're such wonderful hosts, and you know their colors. My last suggestion would be a beautiful frame for their daughter's wedding picture.

Co-sign. A silver frame engraved with their daughter's wedding date.

OR, find out their favorite framing shop, and get them a gift certifcate to have one of their daughter's large wedding pictures framed.

Once again, we agree! Nicely matted & framed photos & pictures can get VERY pricey!
