bridal party gifts?

I am having the hardest time coming up with something to give everyone that is the same? Do you think it would be weird if I just got everyone something different that the cost was the same?

    You don't have to get them all the same thing if you don't want to.

    I did a mix of both.  Each girl got a LL Bean tote (like $10 at the outlet) a black pashmina in case it was chilly, I made them pearl earrings and bracelet for the wedding and classic enough to wear later.  Then I made each BM a scrapbook with photos through the years and some pre-wedding stuff.  Then they each got a little something that was particular to them.

    I think it's perfectly fine to do different gifts that are relatively equivalent in cost. It seems more personal. I was thinking of doing the same general idea but with personalized twist for each. Our wedding is honey-themed so I wanted to use different Burt's Bees packages depending on what my bridesmaids value more. Different is fine- shows you put thought into it!

    Different is totally fine.  Definitely much more personal and thought out, and makes it more likely that they will like whatever it is and use it.

    I am giving them jewelry, which they can wear in the wedding.
