just started planning. MOH gift for bride?

ama240

One of the bridesmaids and I (maid of honor), who are best friends of the bride, are meeting the bride tonight for our first planning activity. We're walking through her 3 choices for venue. I wanted to bring her a small gift/something just to make it special and fun. Any ideas? Doesn't seem like the right time for flowers and I'm not crazy about a wedding magazine (lord knows she's already bought plenty).

Is she a drinker? Nothing like a nice glass of wine to get you through the stress of planning.

What about chocolates of some sort (a box, some truffles, etc.)?

Yup.  A bottle of champagne or sparkling wine would certainly be festive!

Maybe one of those little squishy stress balls?

Wine!! or Champagne-- totally classic wedding drink. Doesn't even have to be fancy champagne, you can get a decent bottle for 5 bucks at your local grocery store. Maybe some cute wine/champagne glasses to go with it? I love Relax riesling-- delicious, and fruity enough that even non-wine drinkers will like it, but not too fruity to turn off wine drinkers. Have fun!
