Bridesmaid Jewelry as a gift-is this now tacky and rude?!

I was creeping over on TK, and in one of the boards they were saying that ANY bridesmaid jewelry bought by the bride is not a gift, ever. I've already bought jewelry as a gift, but it's not my only gift. Is this some new rule trying to be established, because I'm not with it and will not be...

    I think what ever board you read that on is rediculus.

    I have been in 4 weddings. 3 our of 4 of them Ihave received jewellry for.

    in one I got a freshwater pearl neclace (I was 6, I still to this day wear the neclace and wore it to their 25th wedding anniversary last year)

    in one I got a silver neclace with a charm, I wore it almost every day till I lost it about 2 yrs later.

    in my bff's wedding I recieved a matching pink pearl, neclace, bracelet and studs. I have them though I only wear them some certain occcasions.

    All of these gifts I liked.

    I bought my girls all jewellry though they each got a piece matching their personality.

    Tacky is not giving your bm's anything. Or giving them something YOU require them to have that isn't a gift at all. example, my SIL paying for us to get our make-up done for the wedding as our only gift. I can do my own make-up thank you very much, glad u appreciated the 7 stupid events we threw u or were required to attend.

    I wouldn't say tacky, but I think it's inconsiderate to give a gift that must be worn for your wedding as their only gift. Unless it's precious jewelry or specifically something that girl likes.

    I was tacky 30 yrs. ago & my DD will be tacky in September. Honestly, what lady doesn't like to receive jewelry?

    What I find to be tacky & rude are the (d)regs on TK piling on everyone not in their sanctimonious worn out clique. Taking their advice seriously is rather like sitting at the cool table in the mental institution. Calling them bitches is insulting to female dogs.
