Bridal Party Gifts

Hi Everyone,
I am having trouble deciding what gifts to buy for my bridesmaids. My girls are all different ages and have different personalities. My MOH is in her mid 50s and the other girls are in their 30s and early 20s. I thought about personalized pjs or hoodies, but some girls live in Ohio and the others in Florida. I want to get them things they will actually use and hoodies don’t come in handy often in Florida. Do I need to get everyone the same thing, or can I mix it up based on personality? Anyone have ideas or suggestions?

You absolutely can mix it up based on personality! It's better to give them a thank you gift that they will actually like and use. However, all our peeps are getting the same thing, lol....but they are all in the same area with same personalities (for the most part). Bridesmaids are getting: large monogrammed totes, personalized tumblers, and round beach towel. Groomsmen are getting: personalized cooler chairs. Flower Girls are getting: embroidered purse and beach towel. No ring bearers. And parents & grandparents are getting: sentimental gifts (picture frames, photo albums, etc.). I don't have a picture of the rest though.

Hi Sierra!
It's totally ok to get them different gifts based on their interests, location, etc.
If you would like to get them all something in common, you could get them all something like a tote bag, with the gift inside it.
One idea I thought of, is something you can all use together the morning of the wedding getting ready, such as a robe!
Here are some articles from the WeddingWire ideas section with tips and ideas for bridesmaids gifts -

I like the different gift versions because it makes it personable. Like my one BP is addicted to Mickey Mouse so I got her a charm for her bracelet ( she’s so corky she will be head over hills for it) and another loves scrapbooking so I got her a new book in her favorite color and I actually did the first page in the book and attached a pic of our friendship bracelet from when we were 10 and a classroom photo of us holding hands. Personal gifts are great and you chose these people because they mean a lot to you so your gift should reflect that.
