WP Gift Idea?

I can't think of much to get my WP, so I figured we would pay for their hotel rooms for the night. It's 100 a room. We are also getting them custom Tervis Tumblers which is a free pass for them to drink open bar all night we r only doing 12 hours open bar, then cash. I was also thinking about paying for my girls makeup and jewelry. Is that too much, too little?? Help. Ideas!!!

Re: WP Gift Idea?

  • Is 12 hours open bar a typo?!

    I think that's nice, personally, but I hear ettiquette brou-hah-ha that a WP gift shouldn't be something that's just day-of, because... something? I forget? It should be something that they can keep and take away. So says some people.

  • We're just doing beer mugs & wine glasses with their names engraved into them.  I'm thinking of paying for their hair & make up too.  My little sister is a cosmetologist & is doing my hair & makeup.  My other sister made sure to state that little sister would be doing hers too.  So I'd feel bad having the other 2 pay for themselves but no one else.

  • I think that sounds like a really nice gift which is thoughtful and takes their needs into account.  I am drifting in the same direction with my WP.  We are doing necklaces for the girls and ties for the guys.  I'm paying for hair and make-up, FI is paying a portion of the guys suits. We might do something extra for MOH and BM.

  • I bought the girls candles and bath products, as well as jewelry which they can choose to wear for the wedding or not. I'm also paying for nails/hair/makeup.

  • I would get them something a little more personalized. Paying for their hair/make up/jewelry isn't really considered a gift because 1. You're requiring it 2. They wouldn't be doing it if it weren't for the wedding. I'd want my WP to be able to take something away and remember the day by. Maybe a spa GC? A nice bottle of wine? Something along those lines. I got my girls Philosophy body wash and gift cards.

  • Each girl will get an engraved flask (Pink) with their name and something about them engraved my cousin is an avid runner so hers says her name and a runner icon thinking about getting each girl a coach wristlet if I can make it up to the outlets soon and will also get them each something that has special meaning in my friendship with them.
  • That was a BIG ooopsies...that was supposed to be 1 -- 2 hours. HAHA

    Yea, I guess you girls are right about something more personalized. I like the massage GC idea or the Coach wristlets, although my two best friends only carry huge purses like I do.
    Okay, so...Tervis and something else. I am still going to most likely pay for everything else and the open bar for sure.
