			<description><![CDATA[You have so many people to thank for being an important part of your day, and they deserve something more than just one of your wedding favors. Especially if your parents have paid for the wedding, or have devoted their time, energy, contacts, ideas and skills (by crafting or cooking or hooking you up with their great contacts for a friendly discount) to help you get more wedding for less money, it&#8217;s a must to show them your appreciation with a great gift. In addition to the work they did for your wedding, you&#8217;re thanking them now for everything they&#8217;ve done for you in your lifetime. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Even in the most supportive sibling relationships, it&#8217;s natural for some degree of competition and comparison to exist. Siblings are the people who know us most intimately throughout our entire lives, from our earliest days through adolescence into adulthood. Siblings remember our most embarrassing moments, as well as our proud accomplishments. Getting engaged and planning a wedding is a transitional stage, when a major life change is about to occur. Even with support being their primary intention, it&#8217;s natural that engagement can push siblings&#8217; buttons and reveal their own feelings and experiences about marriage.]]></description>
