Personalised dressing gowns/hoodies etc

I am with you on this one! I think its a lovely idea as a present for the BM's/MOH and will look great in the 'getting ready' photos. And i definately want one for myself along with a just married for the next day and honeymoon. Like you say, its the one time you get to go all out.

Ill let you know if I find a decent supplier x

Thanks :-)

Would you say dressing gowns or hoodies for the BMs?

Things like this are really common, so definitely don't feel like it's a silly idea ?

I'd say that more brides had personalised bits and pieces this year than those who didn't actually. Even had a few grooms in on the action too with personalised socks and pants!

If it's something you'd like to do, why not. You can do it fairly cheaply yourself if cost is something you're worried about.

As you say, it can also make for some fun photos in the morning too!

I really like this idea too. I think I will go for zip-up tops or shirts so they can be worn to the hairdressers and taking them off wont ruin the girls hair styles which a pull on hoddie might. I've seen some 'mens' shirts with embroidery on the pocket which looked quite nice but I don't know about prices etc.

Think i will go for hoodies for the BMs as they dont tend to wear dressing gowns normally and it will be nice as something they can wear in future. Although Im not sure how easy they will be to wear in the getting ready process, maybe hoodies with zips ? x

I had never thought about the 'over the head' thing when i was looking for these recently!! Will now start looking for zip up tops!

I found this, I don't know if it's helpful or not?

Thanks everyone....

Glad I'm not the only one wanting these :-)....

Zip up hoods are a great idea...Maybe get them from Primark then iron on the writing?

Im thinking of Primark hoodies and getting the names put on in diamantes for a bit of added sparkle x

It's not something I would have wanted at all. Simply not to my taste, I'm afraid and I can't see the point of a special "getting ready dressing gown", but I realise that some people like them. As reagrds looking good in the photos, aren't they a bit done to death now?

Should I ever be in the position of being asked to wear such a thing, i would probably refuse!

However, plain ones in your wedding colours might look nice - bridesmaids change from hoodies to posh frocks all in the same colour...?

It isn't something I'd thought of getting for my wedding but that being said, my current dressing gown is still my "bridesmaid" dressing gown that I got at my best mate's wedding 3 years ago! I've even worn it to school as part of our bed time stories day in World Book Week!

I don't think I'd have worn a hoodie again tho because I'd have been a bit embarrassed whereas there's only me and OH (a groomsman at said wedding!) that see the dressing gown (and a class of 3 yr olds who can't read!)

Not sure that's much help tho!

If it were me I would go for dressing gowns? I personally wouldn't wear a hoodie that said 'bridesmaid' on it after the wedding, a dressing gown I would have much more use for.

I LOVE the idea of hoodies and if I was having BMs i'd sooooo do it! I really like personalised stuff. I'd agree with mini though, maybe personalise them with their names rather than Bridesmaids so they can wear them again and again- get them in your wedding colours!! x

When I was BM for my bestie, she bought us thin, white cotton dressing gowns and then ironed on 'Bridesmaid' on the back. I've flashed the other BM wearing it, although not the best pic!

I wear it all the time at home in the summer as it's really light unlike other dressing gowns.

Morning!

Thank you all for your replies - been away this weekend so not been on...

i think i'm going for dressing gowns in white for me and black for the BM's (the Next sale has some!)

Either these or ONESIES!!!! HAHA! XX

Like these :-)

Yesterdays bride had a personalised onsie. I loved it ?

I got
