Bridesmaids Gifts

Mary, on October 20, 2018 at 2:44 AM Posted in Planning 0 5
Hey guys, I've got a dilemma. I've decided to get small gifts for my bridesmaids, and I already know what I want to get for my MOH. But, my other bridesmaid is a guy, and I am struggling on what to get for him. Any ideas?

    A few questions to help provide better feedback...
    - what did you get the MOH?
    - what is the price point?
    - what does he like?

    Yeah, generally we'd need to know your budget and his tastes to give you exact recommendations.

    But, I mean, a gift for a bridesmaid/man doesn't really have to be that different than a gift you'd get for a friend on their birthday. Just go with a) what that friend likes, and b) what is in your budget. So, if you male bridesmaid likes whiskey and cigars, those would be fine gifts (and are pretty traditional gifts for groomsmen). If he likes gardening, maybe seeds for his garden/gardening supplies. If he likes video games, get him a gift card to Steam.

    I mean, frankly, most "traditional" bridesmaid gifts aren't that great. Nobody really wants one of those satin robes with "bridesmaid" embroidered on the back, anyway. People tend to enjoy personalized gifts more. Or high-end consumables (like the aforementioned cigars and whiskey; men like high-end chocolate too!).

    I'm getting my maid of honor a bracelet that she can wear at the wedding and then keep afterwards. I'd prefer it to be a smaller gift like that for my guy, and keeping it at around $50 or so

    Hi Mary! Welcome to the WeddingWire community! Smiley ring What are some things that he likes? I say to treat the gift like it's their birthday! For example, I would get my bridesman a gift card to Express (his favorite store) and then a wine glass!

    He's really into video games, he loves to snowboard, and he's also a beer enthusiast.
