Hey ladies!

Does anyone have suggestions for moh/bm gifts?  I was thinking of paying for makeup application and swarovski drop earrings (about $125 pp). Is this enough or too little? I want to show my appreciation but stay within budget...i have 7 bms total.

Thanks!!

    I did Chamilia Bracelets, they are similar to Pandora, but they have beautiful Swarovski beads.  I got my MOH a kindle.

    I think that's a lovely gift! Give what you can afford. I'm sure your friends will love whatever you choose to give them. :o)

    While that is very nice of you to pay for their make-up, if it is for the wedding it is not necessarily a "gift" for them.  The earrings sound very nice as long as you think they will like it and use it after the wedding.  I personally think you don't have to get them the same gift and it shows your appreciation much more if you take the time to buy them something they each will really like (not necessarily the same thing).  I bought each of my bridesmaids a different gift based on what they like.  I didn't spend a lot (only about $40 each) but they LOVED their presents since each one was personal.  It was really fun to watch them open them. 

    Good luck!

    Thanks everyone! 

    I love the gift basket idea and I agree...the makeup technically isnt a "gift."

    Enjoy the rest of your day :)

    I am having an oceany theme to my wedding, so for Bridesmaid/MOH gifts (they are all getting them same thing)

    I bought the earrings and Necklaces that they will wear for the wedding (all simple stuff that I know they will wear outside of that occassion too.

    the earrings are Blue crystal with lighter blue crystal on the top and bottom (Lia Sophia)

    and the necklace is a locket, of a sea shell, with a starfish sitting on it with some swarovski crystals. Insdie the locket is a freshwater pearl. Very simple, and elegant looking.

    I also got an artsy bar of soap called "Buried Treasure" from squeaky Queen (etsy) just for fun  (I run a bath and beauty blog, so finding cool soaps is a hobby of mine...)

    Parents gifts are going to be their wedding albums...FI and I are buying them.
    Mr. and Mrs. Sharkdiver!
