bm gifts

I want to buy my bm gifts. Not sure what to get them. Was thinking of maybe a braclet to wear the day of the wedding but wasnt sure if i should get them any thing. What is everyone else doing?

  • I have gotten all of my girls a pretty necklace,  will be making them a tote bag, to put fun little things in as i think of them, as well as probably a gift card that suits each of thier tastes.  

    Get them something that you would get them for thier birthday or christmas.

  • Normally people say stuff you want them to wear for the wedding doesnt' count, but if it's pretty why not? I'm having an issue too since I want  to get them something I k now they will like, but two of the bridesmaids are his sisters who i've never met (hes from fl and i'm from oh). He tried to help and said they both like exersize, but I think that could be a bit insulting to get them exersize stuff for bridesmaid gifts. lol. (great first impressions? lol)

    the gift card is a great idea though

    I made them a tote bag, got them a really nice necklace to wear at the wedding (it is definitely something I could see them wearing again, have consulted my MOH), wraps, and maybe some fun make up stuff, and a few other little things.  I am also going to get my MOH a coach wristlet (we have an outlet nearby).

  • I'm getting each of my girls a necklace (http://www.etsy.com/listing/90796529/bridesmaid-gifts6-setsfreshwater-pearl) and pashmina to wear on the wedding day. Then they'll each get something small and personal. All in a cute tote bag.

    Honestly, I've been in a couple weddings and each time I've gotten jewelry. If it's cute and theyll wear it again, I'd include it in the gift. If you don't want to go that way....just something they'd like. FI is doing a different gift for each guy, something that they'd all like (one is getting a high end tequila, one is getting a watch, etc.)

  • I'm having a coworker make a tote for each of my girls (I'll be picking out the fabric for totes with each girl's tastes in mind) and I'm planning on getting them a shawl or a necklace or something to go with the bag.

  • I originally had my heart set on doing a bridesmaid survival kit but decided against it.. Something about it just didnt feel right. So I went to Things Remembered and picked out a wine glass and had it their names and the date put on it. I'm also going to get them a necklace to wear and maybe a bottle of wine to go with their glasses.

  • Since I am all about reusable shopping bags, I'm thinking of getting my girls monogrammed totebags and filling them with day of supplies like water, energy bars, first aid kits and flip flops. Gifts are usually customary to say thank you for all that your girls have done for you leading up to the big day.

    Love and Blessings
