Hi all - 

My bridal party as well as my mom and FMIL are hosting my bridal shower. Any thoughts on nice but not too expensive gifts? Maybe in the $10 range?

    I handed out gift bags with shower gel, loofahs, and a bath candle from Bath & Body Works to my shower hostesses with a card that thanked them for my shower, and now I hope they can enjoy theirs.

    I'd do gift cards suited to their individual tastes.

    How much do you think would be good enough for a gift card without seeming cheap?

    I gave each of my girls a gift card to a spa. You can do those in any amount because they'll be able to apply it to whatever they're having done.

    Do you think $15 would seem too little?

    I have hosted lots of showers. Most of the girls gave me a bouquet of flowers (which I used on the food tables), one of the girls gave me personalized notecards and a few gave me nothing.. Flowers... you can purchase an inexpensive bouquet at the supermarket or Whole Foods.  I have spent $100.00's of dollars per shower and lots of time and effort went into them. It's nice to feel that the bride appreicates you.
