Gifts - for bridesmaids & groomsmen

Louise_E, 12 May, 2012 at 12:42 Posted on Planning 0 11

I'm very excited, because my bridesmaids gifts arrived in the post this morning!

What do you think? Is this enough of a gift, or do you think I should give them something else too? I'm actually a little clueless. I thought that this would be good to show off our dresses in the pictures (I got myself a "bride" brial hanger too), but now I'm thinking that I should probably also get them something else.

And what about gifts for my fiance to give to his groomsmen? What type of gifts do people give?

    We gave our bridesmaids some gorgeous handmade swarovski bracelets made by Lisa Lou lou, a HIB on here, plus a frame for a picture of the day to go in, and a my beautiful bridesmaid journal, and our ushers some really nice cuff links.

    I think that's a great gift - nice 2 give something a bit different! I was looking on the nails inc website the other day, and you can design a bottle of nail polish and gift box for your maids. Thought that was a good idea! Perhaps you could give them some jewellery too as that's something that they can keep and wear again and again x

    EllsBells, how do you design nail polish for them? Do you mean there's a personalised message on from the bride or something?

    Oh and Lindsay, I bought these at www.TheBridalHanger.com

    Love the hangers!! We have gotten our 2 bridesmaids little silver trinket boxes, engraved with their names, our names, 'thank you for being our bridesmaid' and the wedding date. Our maid of honour has a crystal bracelet in the wedding colours. For the usher, we got a silver pocket watch, engraved similar to the trinket boxes, and the next man has a hip flask. Oh, and my grandad is giving me away, so he's got an engraved whiskey tumbler.

    Now we are just struggling to find a present for the MIL :-/ xx

    Hi Louise E, you select the colour polish you want (I really like Bruton St which is a dusky pink) then you design the lid with Swarovski crystals etc. You can add messages to the gift box too Xx
