Thank you notes for gifts received before the wedding should go out within two weeks of their arrival. Besides the fact that it's good manners to respond promptly, there's a practical reason for this etiquette rule: finishing them now diminishes the stockpile of un-thanked gifts awaiting your return after the honeymoon. Since notes for gifts received on or after the wedding day should be sent within a month (here you get a little more time), you'll be thankful to have already handled the early arrivers.

Rule of thumb is three months after the wedding, but as soon as possible if you can.

Should the Parents of the bride give a gift to the groom?

Yes, it's still a wedding and the bride and groom are embarking on a life together that traditionally guests (including family) help them furnish with gifts. The wedding itself could be considered a gift but in certain cultures it is traditional that the parents of the bride or of the groom shoulder the costs of a wedding. When parents throw birthday parties for their children or children throw anniversary parties for their parents, shouldn't they still bring a gift? Of course they should!. If you are attending an event that people usually bring gifts to, you are not excluded. Even the bride and groom exchange gifts to each other whether or not one of them decided to pay for the wedding without the help of the other.
