Not trying to step on toes but OMG I miss the question of the day.....and I have one so

What are you doing for gifts for your bridal party? What about hostess gifts when they throw a party for you? What budget did you set per person?

Hope everyone has a fabulous day!

    For my girls I bought them each a $50 gift card to VS and a nice card.
    For our guys H bought them each their favorite sport team freezer cup, bottle opener and flask 
    My brother who isn't into sports received a personalized flask and personalized zippo lighter and our other groomsmen we gave him a personalized clock, business card holder and name plate (he just got a promotion)
    So our budget for each person was $50/ each.

    My sister and my step mom threw my bridal shower so I bought them lotion, perfume and body wash from VS

    H's parents threw the rehearsal dinner so we bought them a really nice picture frame and engraved "family" at the top and the wedding date at the bottom. We will print out a nice group shot of us all to put in it.

    My dad and step mom helped with the wedding so we gave him the same thing.

    Edit: I also gave my girls earings and necklaces to wear for the wedding, but I didn't consider that gifts since they most likely will never wear again.
    I bought them from especiallybrides.com

    I bought my bridesmaids a really nice set of earrings which would match their dress and I also made them a framed photo collage of pictures of each of them with me over the years. They were all really pleased with both gifts.

    I got my girls tote's (on sale for $3 at the knot shop, by the way) and filled them with goodies. Fast flats to wear at the reception, personalized hot pink flasks, pink satin bathrobe to wear while getting ready, cosmetic case and glittery compact. I shopped online and went for sales, so I only spent about $30 per girl. And, I'm only having 2 bridesmaids.

    My fiance got his guys personalized pocket watches, also from the knot shop on sale. They are super cool looking and were about $20 each + personalization.

    Awesome job ladies! I have not squared away anything yet. I already gave them two shirts, totes, and pens...I got them earrings and necklaces for the day but that is not a gift (I really hate when I hear people say: this is their gift/jewelry for the day)..whatever.

    I gave them all that but I did pick up cute make up bags and want to do something nice. My MOH is hosting my shower and just paid $110 to secure the spot she wanted it at....it is HER birthday today but she called me to squeal that this is gonna be such an awesome party. My one BM is hosting the bach party.

    I'm hoping as we all go out holiday shopping they might drop hints lol
