Input on BMs gifts please

So I need input on my BMs gifts. So I know everyone says shop like its their birthday but honestly the best I could come up with ended up being the same thing for each girl. They all like to be pampered and relax. Mind you half of them are nurses. They also love teal. So I first found gorgeous teal floral robes from etsy. Then I found personalized tumbler cups I got each with their initials and name and favorite colors. So then with this I though what about a spa box. So I found at kohls candies brand pear lotion, body wash, body spray, bubbly bath all in teal. Then I got a lufa, sleep mask, and mud mask cream. Does this sound really cheap? I did end up spending over $50 on each girl. I was thinking I may find nail polish and slippers but I have to find some. I also already plan on doing flip flops for the reception so ill also get one for each bridesmaid to make sure they have some. Idk I'm so torn I don't want it to look cheap but I also want to pamper my girls after all the stress they have dealt with. For my MOH I also plan on getting a gift card for the place she gets her nails done.

  • Honestly, I'm not spending that much on each of my girls. I don't think that the cost really matters. I think it's more about the thought. But if you are able to spend that much, go for it. I think the spa items sound great. Definitely not cheap. If I was in someone's wedding and they got me a spa box as a gift, I would be overly excited.

  • My limit is 50 per lady and Fi has same on his guys. I'm planning on getting the special made hangers from etsy as well as pearl necklace with beach dangle.
  • I got my girls weekender bags from the knot during their black Friday sale. I plan on purchasing them floral kimono robes in their favorite color to wear  while we are getting ready the day of the wedding. I found them on esty  for less than $30 a piece and I think they will be something nice they can uas again. I'll put  those, some jewelry, an  other  miscellaneous items like Starbucks gift card, lotion, etc in the bag to gI've to them at the rehearsal dinner. I'm spending about $60 per girl. My FI hasn't decided what heis getting his guys yet. it will probably b  sports related, maybe something from their favorite team, but he plans on spending about the same.

    I just am trying to focus  on gettin  thing  that aren't wedding specific so they can use the things forever.

  • $50 is NOT cheap, I am spending about that much on mine and really I cant afford much more.  I am doing customized wine glasses that I am etching myself, and button down blue shirts for them to wear while getting ready. I have also thought about making little bags for them to put their small things in on the day of but we will see just the wine glasses and shirts have me at $40/each.
