What are your bridesmaid presents?

I brought my bridesmaids lovely handmade necklaces from Etsy and plan to get them some matching earrings, they also have clareabella bags and ill get the older ones a bottle of bubbly too. I am going to treat my MOH to something extra special, she is my best friend and is really helping a lot with the wedding and hen do, id like to thank her so plan on getting her a fancy friendship bracelet

Kate Spade sailor's knot rings - for helping us tie the knot! Got the idea from Pinterest and they look v pretty.

I've bought mine a necklace each and personalised eyemasks. I've considered other bits but don't want to buy stuff for sake of it only if inspiration strikes!

Hi,

I had this exact issue as I have 3 adult bridesmaids and didn't know what to get - all I knew is that I didn't want to get jewellery as I couldn't afford anything really nice. I have now ordered customised clutch bags from a lady on Etsty - they will look something like this:

Mine are going to be 3 different greens so tie with with yellow dresses and greenery in the flowers so they can use the bag on the day. They also come with an embroidered tag inside with a personal message for an extra $1.

There are loads of colours and designs to chose from too

All in all about £105 for 3 personalised bags to be shipped from the US. The website is here if you are interested:-

I'm having this same dilemma, I have three adult bridesmaides and three little page boys 18 months - 5). I was thinking a necklace for the girls and haven't a clue what to get the boys. Any ideas?

I think both of your ideas sound nice.

I'm going to tailor my presents to each BM I think.

Never been a fan of buying them all the same - as some might like it, some may not, they all like different things generally.

I seen this which I thought one of them might like as its similar to the style of their home.

My only worry is if its childish as she is a grown adult!

I'm going to try and not get bogged down by the 'present they can keep' as I think thats when it can get tricky.

I have two bridesmaid who are completely different - I got them a piece of jewllerey each, mini champagne bottle, a nice picture frame (will get a picture from the wedding or hen wend for that), yankee candle and maybe a little compact mirror engraved. The Best Men (having 2) are a different story no idea on them what so ever and OH doesnt seem to help either!!!

I'm making mine jewellery and giving it to the the morning of the wedding ?
Also getting a photo frame with an IOU in it which I will they give them a photo from the wedding of either me and the BM or me,OH and the BM

I only had older BMs, who each had a personalised bag containing a necklace, earrings, mini bottle of bubbles and a compact mirror.

How about personalised or nicely dressed teddies for your younger ones?

I gave mine freshwater pearl jewellery, a personalised mirror compact (really cheap from 24 Studio) and a IOU voucher for afternoon tea at a nice New Forest hotel.

If you are interested in jewellery, I have lots of ideas on my website

Mine got their dresses, shoes, pashminas and side tiara bought for them so I didn't go to town on the pressies.

They got a personalised gift bag with bottle of champers, their wedding jewellery, a soppy card and some sweets. Out of it all it was the soppy card they loved the most.

I'm buying mine their dress, shoes (which they can choose), jewellery and also for their hair and make up to be done.

I've also bought them these

How about teddies for the little ones or some kind of activity pack to keep them entertained later. When i was little and went to weddings I liked to collect confetti, place cards etc so a scrapbook maybe?
