When to give bridesmaids jewelry?

I'm undecided as to whether or not to give them the jewelry at the Rehearsal Dinner with their thank you gifts or just to wait and give them it the day of the wedding while they are getting ready, which is where I'm leaning more towards.

Did you already buy the jewelry? If not I would wait until you have the dresses picked out to see what looks best

I haven't bought the jewelry yet. And I'm thinking about letting them pick their own dress as long as it's within my color scheme. We're having a more casual wedding.

I was in my friend's wedding last month and she gave ours at the rehearsal dinner with our cute initial tote to say thanks. I will probably do the same-once I finalize dress and jewelry

If you want them to wear it for your wedding, I would give it to them (and I did) at the rehearsal with a note saying "please wear this necklace/these earrings tomorrow!"

When I was a BM and received jewelry we were given the necklaces the night before at the rehearsal dinner. I think this was because we were not getting ready with the bride because there were too many people and not enough space. If you plan on getting ready with your girls then you can give it to them day of- I think that would be cute!

We gave them their jewelry at the rehearsal dinner. Also, we gave the guys their gifts (watches) as well so they could wear them the next day for the wedding.

I gave mine their jewelry at the rehearsal dinner.

We gave out all our gifts at the rehearsal dinner. In addition to the gifts, we gave them the accessories for the wedding at the rehearsal dinner as well. We didn't include the stuff we asked them to wear as part of their gifts.

I gave mine at the rehearsal dinner. My friend (I was a BM for her a month before my wedding) she gave them the morning of the wedding as we were getting ready.

It's never too soon or too late. Give them when you feel it's the proper time.

I like the idea of the rehearsal dinner.

I was planning on giving them their gifts at the bachelorette party since its just going to be us girls hanging out, maybe horseback riding or dinner.

I would wait until the rehearsal dinner. Your taste might change as it gets closer! Plus, its a wonderful gift

Thanks for all the advice everyone!

If you're going to wait until the rehearsal dinner maybe drop a hint or something that you'll be giving them jewelry to wear for the wedding. I was a bridesmaid in my cousin's wedding and she got us all clutches and gave them to us at the rehearsal dinner, which was very nice don't get me wrong, but since I didn't know she was getting them I had already bought one. lol

In every wedding I was in, the bride presented us with our jewelry at the rehearsal dinner.

I had them try on the jewelry on the day they went to shop for dresses so I could see how it looks. However, I will give it to them with their clutches at the rehearsal dinner with their gifts.

Is jewelry for the bridesmaids like the standard gift? I really wasn't considering purchasing her jewelry. I am paying for dress, hair, and makeup though.
