Tacky etiquette

I know this is my third post today but I find more questions to ask as I read other forums. I read a comment about it being tacky to give all your bridesmaids the same gift such as robes or jewelry. Is that true? I've talked to my girls and they wanted robes so I chose some they would wear again....

I know this is my third post today but I find more questions to ask as I read other forums. I read a comment about it being tacky to give all your bridesmaids the same gift such as robes or jewelry. Is that true? I've talked to my girls and they wanted robes so I chose some they would wear again. The things I'm giving them are the same for all, but I am giving my MOH another gift that I'm not giving anyone else because she has done so much to help me and has been amazing. I'm just shocked at some of the things that people find tacky. Another one is the head table, I've never been to a wedding that didn't have one. My FH has been a part of the wedding when I wasn't and I had no problem sitting somewhere else without him, it's one day so it didn't kill me. I'm just wanting thoughts on these things.

ETA: I didn't know there was a difference between sweetheart table and head table lol. Also most of the people in our BP aren't bringing dates and we have a married couple in it.

    I am having a head table. My wedding party does not mind. Only two of them will not be sitting with their wives and kids during the meal and they all are completely fine with it. The wives and kids are actually sitting together and know each other as we are all part of the same group of friends. One of the things I am giving my girls is jewelry. It is nice, can be worn in the wedding (unless they choose not to) and can be worn other times. I see none of this as tacky and neither do my friends. Everyone's group of friends is different. Everyone on this forum is from different parts so things are viewed differently and there are so many different opinions on every topic. But one thing that gets me every time is that some people's comments are rude AF! And I don't mean Aunt Flow!

    @FutureMrsW that is exactly what FH and myself are doing as well. Our total is 11 (was 12, one dropped out). I agree that you do not need to spend a large sum of money to thank someone.
