October 2012 Weddings

Would you like this?

Ok ladies, I have been having the hardest time thinking of what to get my wedding party. I wanted to get them all something within the same theme that they would each like. Here is what I have come up with. Would you use this type of stuff? (FYI - all my girls like bath/spa stuff)

Bridesmaids: a handwritten thank you card, personalized hangers, monogrammed robes, and matching hanging make-up bags filled with their favorite soaps/lotions/ etc (will get each girl different items that they have a preference for), and depending on where I stand in my budget, maybe a gift card for a massage

Ceremony reader: handwritten thank you card, the hanging make-up bag filled with goodies, and a gift card (she will for sure get a gift card whether the bridesmaids do or not)

Second question: If you were the reader, would you be insulted that you didn't get the same amount of stuff as the other girls?

Re: Would you like this?

  • I would like everything that you gave me.  As for the question about the reader, I would not be insulted, I would be greatful.  Its your decision on what to give everyone.  I mean you do not have to give anyone anything.

  • We've spent about $120 on each of our WP members, we bought two bottles of really good wine for our reader.

    As a reader, I would be greatful to get a gift. There's not much committement involved in being a reader whereas a WP member contribues a lot of time/money to being in the WP.

  • I think it is nice that you are even getting the reader a gift. I didnt think about it... I think what you are getting her is perfect. As for your girls, if they all like that, then I think you did great! As long as you peronalize each one so they arent getting the same thing, I think they will love it.

  • Not at all. They don't have the same title/duties as a member in the wedding party and like the others said, I think she'll be grateful for whatever you would like to get her! We just got ours a stainless steel travel mug (will keep hot/cold liquids) with her name engraved on it and will get her some gormet coffee since coffee is her favorite thing!
  • okay...ima dork...whats a reader?

  • Some people have bible verses, or general passages about love read by family or friends during the ceremony.
