Bridesmaids Gifts need some suggestions...

motoLyn

I'm feeling kickass with the wedding planning/checklist. Invitations are being proofed, got the wedding favors and seating cards all decided and just need to pay for them. Started figuring out what the BM's gifts will be.

Perhaps you ladies can help me with that part. I want to give them a skin care set or bath and body set (Philosophy, L'Occitaine, etc.), something from coach or kate spade like a wristlet or cosmetic case, a pocket mirror (Sephora has cute Hello Kitty ones) and perhaps one more thing. What else could I put in there? Or what would you give or like to receive as a BM gift?

 

 All 3 BMs are similar in tastes but not quite with the style. Thanks!

Philosophy has a cute shower set that is called Bridal Party.  It has three different body washes that are called things like bouquet...  I got it for one as a BM gift.  I am terrible with this kind of stuff and I am NOT looking forward to doing it for my girls   So I am not much help!

For the wedding I was in, in July we got pandora bracelet and one charm, she gave us personalized charms so we all had something different.  I still wear mine, I hope to add more charms to it.

[QUOTE]Wow, you've got some lucky bridemaids if they are getting Coach or Kate Spade!! Honestly I think that sounds like more than enough already. If you wanted something else, do they like alcohol? I've enjoyed receiving a nice bottle of alcohol as part of my gift.

<div>Liv took the words right out of my mouth. I think you are being more than generous already, but maybe you could also put in a little mini-bottle of champagne, or something like that. If it helps, here is what my BMs are getting:</div><div>
</div><div>-Canvas tote bag with their name on it</div><div>-Pashmina (from the czech republic)</div><div>-Silver bracelet with their initial on it (they do NOT have to wear it for the wedding)</div><div>-Mini bottle of wine or champagne</div><div>
</div><div>The silver bracelets I got for $4.99 when WeddingChannel.com was having a sale and they are VERY nice for the price. </div>

Thanks Ladies, I think I shall include a bottle of mini bubbly.  I am in no way a competitive person.  Its just I was a BM in a college friend's wedding this past Saturday and she gave us the BMs a basket with L'Occitaine mini gift set, a bottle of mini pink bubbly, godiva chocolate bar and a pair of coach earrings.  So I wanted to make my gifts to the BMs just as great.

This sure does sound nice! Good thing I only have three Brides Maids! LOL. Those gifts are pretty special.

Also- Tiger- I ADORE pashminas. They are a big thing on Andrew's mom's side of the family...so I appreciate them even more!
