    For my bridesmaids, I'm getting them monogrammed bathrobes, then for my MOHs I ordered them each a beautiful necklace/earring set with their birthstones. I'm going to throw a luncheon for my bridal party, then I'm getting all my MOHs pedicures and we'll have a spa day : )

    I couldn't decide on just one thing for my BM's so I am getting them a bunch of things... The biggest is the pearl necklace and earings that they will wear the day of. I am also doing personalized tanks they can either wear to bachelorette or day of getting ready, wine glasses with their names, a bottle of their favorite wine, and a personalized hanger (the wire hanger with their names on them). Lastly, I will take photos of us all at my shower and plan on framing one for each. I went a little crazy...

    For my girls I went a little overboard - I am giving them personalized tote bags filled with all kinds of goodies:

    A day of emergency kit

    personalized T-shirts that say bridesmaid, matron of honor, ect...

    Dr. Scholls fast flats shoes for the reception

    snacks and water

    facial masks and foot scrubs to pamper themselves with

    necklace and earring sets (its just costume jewelery that they can wear the day of with their dresses)

    Personalized t-shirts, peal bracelets and earrings, flower hair pins and sashes for the day of (to match their dresses) and planning on getting them clutches. Ordered cards from vistaprint with the bridesmaid poem somebody posted here to add to the gifts and will give it to them when I take them all out.

    Wow, you girls are really doing a lot. I thought I did good but I'm doubting myself now. I got them all earrings and a bracelet. The earrings are pretty but the bracelets are the big gift, real diamonds and amethyst. (dresses are purple) They were $200 at Macys but I went on friends and family night and had coupons so they came to $35 each.

    I got the girls several things as well.

    I got them monogrammed bags with -

    Monogrammed polka dot bottle coozies

    Personalized t-shirts with their names

    flip flops for the reception and then the main gift

    Yellow pearl necklaces hand made by a friend down here in Texas.

    I may also throw in some tissues and things like that but those are the main things.

    @ Amber, I feel ya. I'm not doing that much for my bridesmaids.... but I'm spoiling my MOHS. Even still, there are a lot more ladies out there going "ALL OUT", if I had the financial means, I would too. Don't doubt yourself! You're bracelets sound BEAUTIFUL!!!!

    @ Amber, everything I am doing is at a very low cost, alot of it was DIY. My biggest expense is the wine glasses/bottles. Total cost for each BM will run around $200.00 each. So in retrospect, your gift is just as much! (Even if you did get a good deal, your bracelets retailed for 200.00 so I bet they are gorgeous!)

    I saw the CUTEST tank tops I want to get to wear the day of... one of my sister's bridesmaids made us all tanks and shorts to wear while we were getting ready. I might make my mom or sister help me make something. other than that, I don't know yet. I might get the same thing, like clutches, but a little bit different for each girl Smiley smile

    @ Amber, the bracelets sound so nice!! That's a pretty great gift if you ask me ... My mom makes jewelry, so for certain Im getting them nice pearl necklaces...I also saw a Bride that gave her girls those terrycloth fold over robes (Not sure what they're called..they're like terrycloth robes but strapless) and those looked super cute too and they all wore them on the wedding day getting ready...

    @ Betsy and Holly, Not to be negative but my Bm's really have done nothing for me so far. Didn't even help me with my dress. The only thing they did was pick out their dresses and I even delivered them. So it might have been different if they were really helping me out. I wish I could be like, those bracelets were $200 biotches lol. But I can't. :-(

    @ Amber, I totally understand! My BMs came with me to pick out my dress.... that's about it. One is preggers, one lives an hour away, and one is a coast guard in CA (I'm in FL).... so that's why I'm "just" throwing them a low key luncheon at my place and getting them bathrobes with their names (but I knew from the beginning that this is what it would be like, eveyone's super busy). My MOHs have been angels and helped me so much, that's why they're getting the nice jewelry and pedis.

    Regardless they will love the gift and it just shows that you're a very nice and generous person. So in the eyes of karma... you are a rock star! : )

    All of your ideas are great. I guess the bottom line is whatever you get your bridal party... they will appreciate it. Smiley winking

    I can't afford much for my BMs, but So far, I've gotten little soap samples (organic, and they smell AMAZING!!!), Flop flops (for their shoes, I figure I am wearing flop flops so we could all match! mine are white and theirs are purple, and I added some stuff to the straps so they look a little more fancy), I made pearl necklaces for them (glass beads), and I got them makeup bags that say either Bridesmaid or Maid of Honor, and something that they may never use, or wear, but I thought they were cute, they were pins that say either bridesmaid or maid of honor (figure maybe they can wear them for the bachlorette party... if I get one...)

    I got them clutches to match our colors of gray and eggplant from Etsy, matching set of bracelet and hanging earrings from Etsy, again (can you tell I LOVE Etsy). I got my MOH the same items, in addition to a diamond heart necklace (sorry the cell phone pic isn't the best), and I'm taking them for mani's and pedi's the day before. I think I may also get them a goody bag of Lush products too (gotta love LUSH bath bombs)!
