BM Gifts

Hi Ladies, 

Everyone on this board has such amazing & realistic ideas...I need help with BM gifts. 

What are you giving/did you give? What was the best BM gift you ever received? What would you want if you were a BM? What would you not want?

TIA.

    I know there is some debate on giving jewelry as a gift to your BMs since you are basically requiring them to wear it the day of the wedding, but I'm giving them the jewelry and personalized hangers for their dresses. I may do some monogrammed extras if I can squeeze it in the budget.

    So far I have bought a Miami Beach tote to put the stuff in, monogrammed spa slippers, a cosmetic case I put their initials on in rhinestones, a little luggae tag, a small candle from bath and body. I am thinking about doing a necklace that they can wear after. I will not force them to wear it on the wedding. umm thats all I got for now. I am thinking about the hangers also because I think they are so cute.

    I would like some thing I would use. My friend and my sister both bought me a necklace, one I wore to the wedding the other I didnt but still wear them both.

    This has been one of the more difficult things for me because I want to make sure the gifts are good enough to show our appreciation. I do not like giving everyone the same exact gift. Three of my BMs are in Florida and traveling to Boston for the wedding. I'm getting them each a canvas bag and filling it with flip flops (each different ones) that they can wear at the reception but also for every day, a unique piece of jewelry from Etsy (again, each girl gets a different piece of jewelry), and travel size foot, hand & body lotions from Bath & Body Works that match aspects of our wedding (got a Groupon for their on-line store!). One of my other BMs is a cousin from Norway who is getting married one week before us and is honeymooning in Florida after our wedding. We're thinking of getting her a Disney gift certificate. Then 2 other BMs are FI's friends so he has to help me with that.
