MindySteineman

Anyone have any awesome ideas your willing to share ?

I got my girls each a Vera Bradley wristlet in a pattern that reflects their individual styles. I'm going to put a hand written letter into each. Not very unique, but my girls will all like them.

I'm also not going too unique. I got them all a different Coach wristlet that I think they'd like and I'm going to put a gift card insiide for their favorite restaurant or store. cnf, I might steal your letter idea too!

Same here, Coach wristlets, and probably a gift card for each of them to somewhere/something they would like.

So far I got them each a medium sized tote bag with their first initial on it. I was thinking more along the lines of travelling from the hotel, to the church, to the reception. Plus we live on the beach and go every weekend and my sisters and I spend most of the summer weekends packing up and moving into our parents house. So I figured the bigger bag would get a lot of use. After we order the BM dresses I am also ordering the 16oz personalized tumblers on Etsy because I love mimosas and we will be drinking those while getting ready so this will prevent spills plus they are super cute. Im also going to put some flip flops and jewelry in the bag I think the gifts is what I am most excited about... parent gifts are a whole other story though! I have no idea what to get them!

You guys are giving me some great ideas! I'm not having attendants at our vow renewal (that I know of at this point! LOL) but my best friend who has known me since we were in middle school together is "officiating" our renewal. I'd love to get her a present. Keeping an eye on this thread for sure!!

CNF I'm doing vera bradley wristlets as well. I'm probably also going to get them some flip flops for the reception and maybe a bottle of wine. I'll probably end up buying all of that stuff for me too!!

<div>I debated between Vera Bradley and Coach since there's a Coach outlet only ten minutes from me. But VB had so many designs to pick from that it was really nice to hand select patterns to match each girls personality. </div>

I am also going to give them flip flops, forgot about that.

Everyone has great ideas. I guess I was going a little traditional. They all are going to get a necklace that will match their dresses, flip flops, tote bag with their initials and a very nice handwritten letter from me. I wanted to add something else but I haven't figured it out yet. I might have steal some of these ideas.

I'm not 100% sure of what I am doing but I know I am doing flip flops, i bought them during the $1 sale. and I was thinking about a picture frame and a necklace and maybe a a wristlet or tote bag or something!

Im loving all these ideas! 
I found this site, i MIGHT be in love - and .. please tell me if this is just too cheesy. 

I was thinking of getting them a carry tote, and in it , having their jewlery for the wedding, some scentsy, and maybe some tumblers (which i have learned are really plastic cups with straws ) but I figure when we are all getting ready it would be nice to have them ! 
Idk, im a oddball .

I'm not actually having a wedding party - just BFF (and her husband - we have a complicated situation for our wedding so they're it) - and I'll probably figure out something awesome to do for her closer to the date, but I already know that I'm making her a batch of her favorite cupcakes (Raspberry Ricotta Almond). We're not knick-knacky people and she's got more Vera than I've got, so I'll probably just get her and her husband a gift certificate to a nice restaurant and maybe knit her a shawl. (I knit her garter for her wedding.)

The tumbler is actually a great idea.

I'm thinking of ordering them monogrammed totes, then filling it with little unique gifts... like a necklace, a handwritten note from myself thanking them for being there for us, and a tervis tumbler for the limo. If all of that seems to be too pricy, I think I will do the Vera Bradley wristlet too with a few extra little items! Love all of your ideas.

Mindy the same bags that are on that site can be found on this site: http://www.bags-purses-totes.com/tote-bags.html They are about $10 cheaper.. I ordered mine there and they should be here tomorrow!
