My wedding colors are cobalt blue with a splash of orange/melon.  My 5 bridesmaids are wearing cobalt dresses and silver shoes.  Any suggestions on where to find blue/orange jewerly as their gift?  I was thinking of purchasing various pieces... necklace, earrings, bracelet, hair clips, etc... but I'm having the HARDEST time finding this color combination!!!  Please HELP!!!

    I would try etsy, but I mostly see metallics on there. You may have more luck in the spring/summer because those colours aren't very popular for the winter. Good luck with your search!

    If it's for them to wear at your wedding to fulfill your vision then it's not a gift for them, it's a gift for you.  Let them wear their own and get them something that each of them would like (not necessarily the same type of gift.  Book, gift card to a restaurant).

    Ditto pp's jewelery that you want them to wear for the wedding to complete your vision is definitely not a gift that thanks them for being a part of your big day. Especially if it's in colors that are not easily matched to every day outfits. I gave my girls pearl necklaces that had matching earrings that I purchased from an Etsy seller. I never told them to wear it for the wedding, but they all did and some of them still wear the necklaces since they're so neutral and classic. I gave them other gifts as well, and made a scrapbook for my MOH of us over the years as her something extra.

    I agree with PP.

    What are the chances that blue/orange jewelery is totally your bm's style and something they would actually want?  If it's something they'll wear in your wedding as part of their bridesmaid uniform, it's not a gift for them.  Especially if they'll likely never touch it again.

    Buy them something for THEM.  That's what a gift is supposed to be.

    And ditto Stage on silver jewelery working perfectly fine.
