Umm...I think it would depend on whether or not they contributed to the wedding. It's definitely a popular thing to do, and a nice gesture, but probably for the most part unnecessary.
Our parents have paid for everything, so I think we absolutely have to do this - to show our appreciation for everything they have done! But I still dont' know what to get. :)
i think a lot of couples do. we did. pearl studs + cufflinks is what we gave them. it's a sweet way to say thank you for their support, whether it's emotional and/or financial.

My mom actually encouraged us NOT to give them gifts. She said that 36 years ago they weren't expected to do so. I think we'd like to do something, but since we're two weeks away, it may be done later.
My wedding will be on the same day as yours. I may end up trying to get a gift on Gifts.com or Red Envelope or possibly Things Remembered.
My parents are the same way. My mom stated that she doesn't want me to get her something. I may end up getting something from Things Remembered or from Red Envelope.
We want to five gifts to our parents, but we don't have much money after getting MUCH needed furniture to our new place... but we are going to try to get them a little something to show are appreciation :)
I'm sure our parents don't want us to get them anything, but I feel like it's a nice gesture with all the help and money they've given us towards the wedding.
We paid for everything in our wedding, so we didn't have a lot of extra money for presents for our parents. We just did something small--silver picture frames for them to put a wedding photo in. They appreciated the gesture and we didn't break the bank.
We are planning to do custom wine labels with our names and wedding date and give each parent a red and a white wine bottle. We'll probably do a framed wedding picture too once we get those back.

According to ediquette standards, are you supposed to provide your parents with a gift like you do for your bridesmaids and groomsmen?
