Gift Ideas for your Bridal Party

Bridesmaids and Groomsmen are the most important women and men in your lives and the people you have chosen to stand next to you on your wedding day. Show your appreciation for them by giving them a well-chosen bridesmaid/groomsmen gift.

Bridesmaid/Groomsmen gifts run the gamut in terms of price, style, and individuality. Some brides spend hundreds of dollars, while others choose to spend only a few, or choose to make something inexpensive yet time-consuming.

You can choose to get everyone the same thing, get variations on a theme, or choose entirely different presents for each person. While shopping, keep each individual maid/men in mind, choosing imaginative and stylish gifts that come from the heart. Try to spend about the same amount on each present, except for the maid-of-honor's and best man’s gift, which is typically more lavish than the other ones. However you chose to celebrate your wedding attendants, make sure they know how much they mean to you by inclosing a personal note with each present. From crafty and tasty to just plain indulgent, here are some ideas to get you started.

A classic bridesmaid gift is something she can wear on the wedding day, but still use later on such as a necklace, earrings, shoes, wrap or shawl.

If you're having a destination wedding a personalized beach towel, beach bag, a gift certificate to enjoy a fun activity during their stay, coffee table book about their destination.

Pamper them with a spa gift certificate, personalized pj’s or robes, a manicure set, gift baskets, a beauty/make-up application lesson.

Personalize it with monogrammed items such as wine glasses with a great bottle of wine, embosser, personalized stationery, monogrammed set of bath towels or robe, or a designer makeup bag.

Play Off Their Passion… She loves to dance so try a gift certificate for dance lessons, fitness nut- go for workout gear or a session with a personal trainer, they cook- think of a hot new cookbook, cooking lessons or an adorable apron, wine lover- enroll them in a wine club, tickets to a musical, concert or sporting event, magazine subscriptions.
