Ummmmm ... excuse me while I go against the wedding etiquette, but is it really necessary to get gifts for 23 people?
I can understand getting something for the kids (ring bearer and flower girl) but I don't think the attendants will be upset if they don't get something. Yes, I have been a bridesmaid in numerous weddings, the bride always gave me a gift, and it was always jewelry that wasn't really my taste which I wouldn't have selected.
How 'bout a handwritten note to each expressing your thanks and why you chose them (i.e., spelling out why they mean so much to you).
JMHO.
