Bridal party gifts

HoneyImGallone, on March 11, 2019 at 12:13 AM Posted in Community Conversations 0 19
Hey guys, I am looking for some suggestions for bridal party gifts. I want to get them something that is more personal. My FH just ordered personalized pocket watches for all of his groomsmen, and I don't want his to be really nice and personal and mine be like a purse and flats. Help!

    Shop for them like you would for their birthday or Christmas. A gift card to their favorite store or restaurant, a certificate for a mani or pedi, a piece of jewelry they’d really like and their favorite wine.

    I was thinking like maybe engraved wine glasses, but idk. And I was thinking about the robes, but I want give them something they will use and I couldn't see half of them ever using them.

    I asked this question months ago and all the ladies that commented at the time said the same as Caytyln! Shop like it’s their birthday, be more personal with the gift! I got all of my girls necklaces for the day of but for my MOH I got her favorite wine, an Office T-shirt, candles, and a set of stemless wine glasses. My bridesmaids got the necklace and I shopped for them individually too

    I gave all my bridesmaids gift cards to help cover the expense of their dresses. I wanted something that they would be able to use. I am going to get a coordinating piece of jewelry for each of them for their dresses .

    My MOH loves lavender so I got her a gift set from L'Occitane and lavender sachets for her dresser drawers.

    All the others I got the same but things I knew they would live like Korean facial masks, black pashmina scarves, nice smelling candles, and black weekend shopping totes to put them all in.

    I have gotten personalized things in the past like tumblers or a robe. Its all made its way to the garbage eventually because its stuff I never use.

    I found these, and thought maybe Just getting their First name on it would make it personal, but also wouldn't make it so specific to my wedding. Like no putting my wedding date on it or anything, so it is something nice for them in general

    I got my BMs something personal but wedding related.

    I got them a tote bag with their initials on them, silk robe with their initials, wine glasses with their name, their favorite wine, and a personal note from me. If you want to splurge more, you could also get them a gift card to their favorite store.

    I already got them clutches for the day of, but I wanted something personalized that they wouldn't just get ride of. And NOTHING with the word bridesmaid on it. Then I feel like it is a little weird to where it other than when you are actually in that role.

    I'm getting each girl a tote, tumbler, hanger, getting ready outfit (they picked it out among 3 options) and a handwritten letter from me! Maybe a necklace?

    Love these ideas! So far I got really nice black and white silk pajamas for when we get ready that aren’t personalized so they’ll want to wear them in the future. Curious, how much do people typically spend on bridesmaids gift? Is there a range?

    This is tricky, lots of different opinions. I feel like there are real practical budget and time barriers the whole "treat it like a holiday" sentiment.

    I ordered spa boxes for my girls each with their own scent. I asked them if they were "gold, white gold, or rose gold" types of gals, and ordered a pair of earrings for each and put them in the box. I hand-wrote cards and threw them in. Etsy made this all very cost effective and I didn't go insane trying to be too different or creative for everyone.

    How about something monogrammed or with their name? Necklace/jewelry, flask, makeup or tote bags, tumblers. Are you doing any getting ready pictures? Maybe get robes with their names on them.

    I ended up getting them these cute jewelry boxes with their names engraved in the font of their choosing and clutches. The boxes for my sister, my mom, and my FMIL are different than the BM and they have a message engraved other than their names

    I have been looking at various spa boxes. Do you have a link to the ones you chose?

    I got my bridesmaids wire wine tags that said their name and have a little pearl, robes, little glittery champagne flute, and then personalized cards I wrote to each of them. They all absolutely loved their boxes and raved about how cute it would be to take a picture of the wine tags on their champagne flutes the morning of the wedding!
