The best wedding gifts for the wedding party

I know they're completely optional,
But we are starting to think of gifts for our wedding party (i.e. father/mother of bride/groom, bridesmaid/best man). I want to know what you guys brought if you gave gifts? Or if anyone's seen anything that they think fits the bill? We are in the UK.

In our party there are : 3 Bridesmaids, 1 flower girl, best man, mother/father of bride and groom. Is there anyone else I should consider? Ushers/grandparents?

My mother in law is the one that I'm rather stuck on even after going through ideas. She's a lovely woman, and my fiancée is her only son so that's obviously a little overwhelming at times but also think it's all the more reason to make sure I get it right. I want to get her something nice and sentimental but also not over the top, if that makes sense?

All I've brought so far is Disney themed bottle openers for my bridesmaids. Our colour scheme is white, blue and silver and our sit down is somewhat Disney themed, the rest is your standard wedding.

I appreciate its early but I've got some extra cash (shocking with everything in the world) and I want to use it for this.

Thanks guys x

We bought (many years ago now!) necklaces for our bridesmaids to wear on the day and gave them in the morning, cufflinks for the best man and maybe the ushers too but not entirely sure about that (again given in the morning), and special photo albums to add wedding photos to for the parents, plus the obligatory flowers for the mums

My daughters were bridesmaids for their uncle. They were given picture frames with the date on. They both have a photo of the wedding in it and still have them on display 10 years later.

Thanks guys,
We defo want to do the flowers for the mum's but I also would like something sentimental that will last for them as well. Lovely ideas of photo frame, necklaces. I did like idea of cufflinks but need to await what suits he actually wants as he can't decide and some don't take cufflinks anymore I don't think x
