Bridal party gift question

beckyh77

So for my girls (3 BM's, 1 attendant, 1 usherette) I am thinking of getting a clutch to match their outfit, earrings and a cute purse holder thing I've seen. (so you don't have to set it on the floor, it attaches to the table)

My BM's are all wearing the same color, just a different dress. I found a vendor through Amazon that has a good variety of clutches to pick from.

The question I want to post to the group is:  What do you think of getting each BM a different clutch? Or would it be better to do all the same?

I think the clutch is a nice gift. I bought clutches for my girls from Hundred Percent Wholesale.com. They are great quality and seriously were only $8.50 each. The only catch is the site has a hundred dollar minimum order to buy anything. I bought 6 clutches for my maids, one for each of our moms, one for me, and then 7 pair of really nice sunglasses. When I couldn't believe I was able to get all that for such a great price. The sunglasses are in a very classy case and the clutches are flawless with very sparkly brooches on each.

I chose the same clutch for each bridesmaid because it coordinates with their dresses, but honestly, they aren't the style a few of my girls go for. They are completely MY style. I'm ok with that though because the clutches aren't their main gift.

If the clutch is their main gift, I would definitely purchase ones in their personal style soo they will want to use them again. A nice idea would also be to fill them with some items that might be usefull to them. Ideas: a package of tissue with their initial on it, mints, gum, Tylenol, a few bandaids in case their shoes cut into their feet, lip gloss, etc.

Sorry to keep rambling on and on. I just get so excited over these things and am happy to meet a group of ladies who always want to hear about it and tell me of their own! Thanks for reading if you made it this far. Lol.

</div><div>I agree.  We only have one female attendant and I bought her a jewelry set on etsy that goes for the wedding as a gift, but I tried to pick something I thought she'd really like.  We have one male attendant and we bought him monogram cufflinks- he could wear them for the wedding, or not.  I think he'll really like those- he's a pretty flashy dresser

I think it's a great idea to buy them different clutches that match their style a bit more. My whole wedding is going to be more personalized to my girls...mostly with their favorite colors and things of that nature. I don't want to buy them things they will never use again!
