Hi ladies. I am looking for bridesmaid/Groomsmen gifts?  I would like to do something a little different than the usual tote bags, flasks, cuff links, jewelery boxes, etc).  I have 10 bridesmaids and 10 Groomsmen, so as you know it could get costly.  Any ideas would be helpful.  Thanks.

    I don't know how much you're looking to spend.. but I have 9 bridesmaids and I am getting them swavoroski crystal necklaces at 50 a piece... they are beautiful and you can customize each one to how you want it. I found them at beads and stitches on 106 107 in hicksville...

    Not sure what time of year you're getting married, but we're getting married at the end of Oct. and I'm getting my girls pashminas. They cost $50 a piece, not sure if you wanted to spend that much.  My FI is getting the groomsman LED flashlights (he loves flashlights) they were about $70 a piece.I have half the # of attendants that you do, so not sure if this was helpful or not.Good luck!

    We paid the deposits for BM gowns/tuxedo rentals as our gift.  We didn't have 10 people each though.  Got this idea from a bridal party i was in I was in another wedding party where the bride paid for our hair/makeup to get done. being in a bridal party is very expensive so i think these are helpful thank yous.

    I'm hoping to get my ladies' Coach wristlets from the outlets, but I'm not sure. I know I want to do some pics in black converse so maybe I'll them those and pay for their make up or something?

    Oh & Shortkake, the flashlight idea for the groomsmen is hysterical because my FI is OBSESSED with flashlights, LOL. I am so glad to hear that there's someone out there with the same problem, LOL.  Very funny.

    I got each of my 4 bridesmaids these Coach clutches from Nordstrom's. They were $98 each: http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3035077/0~2376780~6009391~6010096~6010120~6010135?origin=category&pbo=3035077They each got a different color.My fiance got his groomsmen different things.  Some are getting putters since they all recently got into golf, jerseys, autographed jerseys, or watches.
