Of course, this is mainly for the general situation. If it's the kind of family where your husband is very good and then you won't feel anything when you leave empty-handed, I don't think we need to discuss this issue.
There is a misunderstanding that some girls may feel that they are still guests when they go to their in-laws for the first time, and they don't need to prepare any gifts. But in fact, this idea is wrong. Now that I'm at my husband's house, whether I'm married or not, I really need to pay attention.
For example, when my sister (aunt's daughter) was in love before, she and her boyfriend were not married at that time, which was equivalent to meeting the man's parents and simply buying some fruit and leaving.
As a result, her parents gave her a thick red envelope when they went out. Although it shows that her husband's family will recognize her in the future, it also highlights her sister's carelessness on the other hand.
Comparing the importance of both sides, we will feel that girls are not polite, and even affect their impression of in-laws (both my aunt and my mother say so). So personally, if you are not married and just met your parents, it is necessary to prepare gifts to leave a good impression. If you get married, since you are all from your own family, you don't have to dig for it. You have to have a sense of ceremony for the first time.
Therefore, the following gift list is for your reference:
(1) grandparents
Generally speaking, there is always one of wine and tea that grandpa likes. Therefore, grandpa's gift is very easy to choose. If you like to drink, you can buy more famous, packaged and atmospheric wine (preferably gift-boxed, which looks more advanced). If it is tea, it will be much simpler. Just buy the famous tea gift box directly.
Relatively speaking, grandma's gift is not so good to choose. Personally, I think we can consider the bracelet. The price mainly depends on the individual's affordability. Be sure to pack it. It looks gorgeous.
(2) Parents (and corresponding uncles and aunts)
Gifts for husband's parents can be more expensive, and gifts for other relatives can be relatively civilian. Generally speaking, you can send your mother-in-law skin care products (repeatedly remind her that if she is knowledgeable, she must buy branded goods; If the mother-in-law doesn't care much about skin care, she should also choose a relatively atmospheric one. If the mother-in-law doesn't need skin care products, she can also consider giving bracelets, but unlike her mother-in-law, she usually chooses jade and gold.
As for my husband's father, if he smokes, he can buy expensive cigarettes. If you don't smoke, you can consider something healthier, such as health products.
In addition, you can also buy warm sweaters for your parents-in-law, warm scarves for your mother-in-law, and sweaters for your father-in-law, which is also very good.
As for the collateral relatives of the same generation, I personally think that fruit baskets, snack gift boxes and milk are actually enough. If you have children at home, you can also buy a toy package.
(3) Brothers and sisters
Generally speaking, you can send lipstick, bags and skirts to your sister. However, it should be noted that you must ask your husband clearly, such as what color number lipstick likes and what style skirt you like, otherwise it will be embarrassing to step on thunder. As for my brother, I can consider sending a watch.
(4) Brothers and sisters
If younger siblings are still young, girls can buy Barbie dolls and boys can give Lego toys. But today's children are mostly mature earlier, so why not send them a set of counseling materials? Ha ha ha ha (joking).
If they are relatively older, such as junior high school and senior high school, you can consider giving them electronic products, such as bracelets, even tablets and mobile phones, which are all good.
If you have been to college or even worked, you can consider giving lipstick and perfume to girls and basketball shoes to boys.
⑤ Little nephew and niece
In this case, the age is generally relatively young, so you can consider giving your child a bracelet to wear. Nothing expensive, like silver. The point is that meaning is better.
Finally, I need to remind you that no matter what gift you give, try to use packaging that can be packaged. If you have a big gift package, you will definitely not buy it in bulk, and do it yourself.
