Thoughtful Gifts for Your Bridesmaids

Between wedding planning, your bridal shower and your bachelorette party, your bridesmaids are right there by your side. Your girls help you plan, have fun with you, support you, and make sure your big day goes off without a hitch! You can say “thank you so much” until you’re blue in the face, but presenting your loved ones with a special gift really says it so much better. What better way to show your appreciation by purchasing individual gifts for each woman in your wedding that can be used long after your special day.

Jewelry

Jewelry is a classic choice with endless options for your bridesmaids that they will be sure to love. You can gift your girls matching jewelry to wear during your wedding for a keepsake that will forever remind them of your wedding. You can also choose one jeweler and pick different pieces for each bridesmaid, that way they are of the same style but you know everyone will get a customized piece they will love forever. 

The best way to incorporate  these two options depends on your bridesmaids’ dresses. If your bridesmaids are in matching dresses, try switching up the jewelry and purchase them unique pieces to help them stand apart. On the other hand, if your bridesmaids all have slightly different dresses (whether be color, neckline, or style) you can tie the look together with matching jewelry.

Fun Accessories

If your wedding is more casual and your bridesmaids don’t have a particular dress or style to abide by, let them wear what they’re comfortable in and gift them other types of fun accessories. We have a few ideas to get the wheels turning in your mind because again, the options are endless here! 

If you have a casual late summer wedding, sunglasses are a great option for your bridal party. Ordering stylish sunglasses will be great for your girls to rock during all stages of your wedding; the reception, the sunny outdoor ceremony, and of course the photos. Plus, this will offer your friends a gift that keeps on giving! 

Another great gift that can be kept and utilized both during a warm summertime wedding and even after your wedding, is a water bottle or wine glass. Getting personalized items like these are super easy to find on Etsy. You can monogram almost any type of glass or water bottle with their initials or name, so this is great to keep track of your drink while getting ready for your wedding and long after!

Personalized Baskets

Getting crafty and creative is always a fun outlet! If you want to get a very personal gift for each of your girls, think of things they love to do and create a gift basket surrounding that idea. Pinterest is a good starting point for ideas. A wine themed basket featuring a glass, their favorite bottle of wine and a coaster. An at home spa basket could include some awesome Lush products, with a loofah and pumice stone. If they’re a movie buff, grab them a few different flavors of popcorn and a Netflix gift card so they can binge for days. The possibilities are endless!
