What about a gift certificate to have their wedding photos scrapbooked for them.  For that amount it would be a very beautiful book and something they would have forever.  Find a scrapbook store in your area and they would probably be able to refer you to one.

My parents are helping us out a great deal for our wedding.  My mom has helped me with the planning, the finances, the stress, etc etc.  We are getting my father a nice bottle of wine and a gift certificate for a manicure and pedicure for my mom.  When I go into the salon to have mine done the day before, I am just going to surprise her and take her with me.  We are also planning on a nice toast specifically for them and we're also thinking of having a song dedicated to them (to dance to) following the toast. I'm not sure if it's necessarily "customary," but I think it should be if they really help out.  If you can't afford much, just put some thought into it and do something creative.  Make a cd for each of them with songs that remind them of you (or the two of you together).  Definitely do something for them...it's kind of their big day too.

A good theme in my mind is of "Renewal/Rebirth" I am not talking in the sense of the church but in the sense of you.  I would go for some flowers that are not completely bloomed yet, but almost there.  I would also use a lot of soft pastel colors, but make sure that you focus on the ones that remind you two the most of your original wedding colors.\n\nFor after wards, if you are outdoors type people i would go camping under the stars.  If you are more to indoors, I would try to find a nice spa that does couples sessions where you two can get a nice message or mud bath together.

A nice picnic basket (one that comes with its own plates, silverware and glasses)filled with fruit, cheese, wine and other treats... that way they'll remember their wedding night everytime they use the picnic basket.

I'm going with concert tix too, but that will probably blow your budget so maybe go with a committment ring, they can be gold or silver & it is a way of showing your appreciation, fondness & loyalty to her without proposing marriage :o)

log on to theknot.com website, and you can find many places for not only favors but also other wedding stuff. It is really helpful and you can also get recommendations for florists, caterers, etc.

Here are a few suggestions for you:\n1. Lottery tickets in a blue organza bag\n2. Some sort of sea salt and herb recipe in a small blue bottle.  You can usually buy the bottles in bulk and that will save you a ton of money.\n3. If mom is a florist, then you could easily do small potted orchids.\n\nI went on the Martha Stewart wedding site, and the first thing that I saw was a beautiful white and blue cake.  But check out her ideas for favors.  Also one of my favortite sites, The Knot.  Both sites are below.\nHope this helps!

Depending on how much you want to spend, the old saying "something blue" could be transformed to every shade of blue you can find.  Maybe you could order a whole box full of tiny garters for wedding favors in multiple shades of blue. Each garter would be the size of a napkin ring.

How about a blank book with a nice cover.  Bring a nice pen for the guests to write with.  Start off the book with a page of your hopes, wishes, advice for his/her future and best sentiments for your friend and then circulate it around for others to do the same or leave it on a table and ask others to contribute their gems of wisdom to it.  This could be a nice keepsake.  \n\nYou could also put some paper on each page as a place holder for a  photograph that you could take of each person at the party.  After the celebration,  put each contributor's photo on the page that they wrote to the graduate.
