Bridal Party Gift Ideas

Hi Ladies!

I am trying to think of a nice gift to give my bridal party. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks :)

Re: Bridal Party Gift Ideas

  • Some ladies here will suggest that you customize it and give each person something they would like rather than all the same thing, which may be a good route if you know everyone really well and have an idea of things they would want (i.e. gift card to Starbucks for the caffeine addict, presented inside a cute mug).

    I am doing something related to my tropical theme and giving each girl a tote bag with a water bottle, beach towel, flip flops, luggage tag, and a beachy looking picture frame with an I.O.U. for a photo from the wedding -- two of my bridesmaids will each get a picture of herself with her husband, my two sisters are the other bridesmaids and will get a picture of the three of us, and my matron of honor will get a picture of the two of us framed with a picture of the two of us from her wedding where I stood as her maid of honor.
    Whoever said it was supposed to be happily ever after is a big fat liar.
  • I'm giving my BMs each a monogrammed beach towel (make sure they like monogrammed things) in their favorite colors, along with some individual items like a coffee mug for the Starbucks addict, a cookbook for the baker, etc. 

    I'm also giving my MOH a Shutterfly photobook with pictures of us going back to 8th grade through college and the wedding.

  • So far I have gotten cute blue and white striped bags (we're doing a nautical theme) that can carry their phones, etc or just use as a makeup bag, whatever they want. Inside of it I'm putting in a cute knot necklace. They can wear it if they want to for the wedding but I'm not going to make them. I am trying to come up with one other thing, depending on my xmas bonus, I was hoping to do personalized robes or something and I'm also going to DIY a tote for them to put all the stuff in.

  • I'm doing 99% the same for them with a little variation at the end
    Totes
    -earrings
    -necklace or ring
    -lipstick
    -photo frame
    -wine glass
    -tumbler cups
    -clutches
    FOR MOH- Kate Spade purse
    FOR BM- Coach purse
    I live in Orlando and the Coach outlet is 20min from me, so that makes things a lot easier financially.  Kate Spade does pop up sample sales 75% off.
  • I'm doing a couple of DIY gifts:
    coasters-made by modge podging scrapbook paper onto tiles
    name pictures-taking pictures of ordinary objects that look like the letters in their names

  • I got them each a purse or clutch (black friday sales= yay!) and I'm filling them with sephora lip gloss, mini perfumes, nail color, etc. I am not requiring any kind of jewlery to be worn so I didnt want to get them all matching sets. I wanted to get them each a separate gift.

  • I went on Etsy.com and actually found really cute (and pretty casual) personalized clutches then I am making each girl her "own style" of a necklace for the wedding.

  • Im getting them all personalized tote bags with stationary sets and they will be filled with items specific to the person.

  • I made each BM a pearl/crystal necklace and earrings for the wedding, so I will be giving them those inside a silk brocade jewelry roll in each girl's favorite color.  I use my jewelry roll all the time when I travel, so I thought that this would be a good combination of the traditional jewelry for the wedding, plus something they can use afterwards.

  • Giving gifts to bridesmaids means that you want to say them thanks for making your day so special and memorable......So just consider their personality and choice also before buying gifts for them......

    I am giving my bridesmaids personalized tote bags and personalized jewelry from http://personalizedgiftsforu.com/ because they can use them even after the wedding also...Have a look.....
