1) I decided that my gifts would be as gender neutral as possible. If something is a little too feminine for him, he can always share it with his girlfriend.
2) No clothing items. I am a plus sized bride myself and I have girls of all different sizes, including my sister who just gave birth last week, and a man in my bridal party. I don't want anyone to feel uncomfortable, especially since I, myself, have body image issues. I'm just going to tell everyone to wear black leggings and a button down shirt to get ready in.
So far, I bought ten of these tote bags in navy and one in white with powder blue embroidered initials.

I also want to get ten of these tumblers from Tervis in indigo and one in white.

For the children, one of my bridesmaids is designing and drawing a coloring book with a Jewish wedding theme. There are so many wedding themed coloring books out there, but next to nothing for Jewish weddings. So I offered to pay her $50 plus the cost of materials. She's already working on the rough drafts and they're looking good!
Do any of you have men in your bridal party that aren't groomsmen? How are you handling buying your Brides-People gifts? I wanna see your ideas! ❤
