Bridesmaid Gift...Yay or nay?

Ashlee, on February 9, 2014 at 9:26 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 9

I have my MOH and two BMs. My MOH is getting a small MK crossbody bag with a pair of Kate Spade studs because she has done a lot throughout the wedding planning process. One of my BMs is going to get a necklace and earring set I bought off Etsy along with a small Coach wristlet.

My 3rd BM...I have NO IDEA what to get her. She doesn't wear jewelry (her ears aren't even pierced!) and she doesn't like any particular brands. She's not a fashionista, no particular style, etc. One thing we do have in common though is our love for cheese and wine.

I was thinking about getting her an electric wine bottle opener (seriously best thing ever, I love mine) and a nice cheese cutting board with a drawer underneath that has cheese cutting tools.

Is that idea super lame? I know she would love it and she would use both. I just feel like it's not a very BM-ish gift compared to the other two.

Thoughts?

    I think that's great!! It's personalized and it's something you both share a love for. Go for it!

    Have you looked on Etsy. I typed in "wine bridesmaid gift" and found some other things she might like. I mean you can get her the electric wine bottle opener and then get her something more bridemaidy from Etsy like a personalized glass or something sparkly that's wine related to go with it.

    @ForeverYours, I've looked around on Etsy a little bit but maybe I'll go back and look again.

    @Betty, I thought about the nice bottle of wine too but I wanted to get her something that can be used more than once. (Let's be honest, we don't open a bottle without finishing it in the same night!)

    And thanks guys but I don't think I can afford to have another bridesmaid hahaha

    I think those are great ideas. Especially for the 3rd BM. That is something she will use often, and it will always remind her of your relationship.
