You want to show your bridesmaids how much it means to you that they are a part of your big day, but you are unsure of how to ? Today’s blog is all about Unique And Thoughtful Gifts For Your Bridesmaids.
Gifts That Are Wedding-Related
‘One of my favourite parts of being a maid, aside from the hand-holding, dress-fluffing and the lip-gloss-applying is the dress-up part’
To cut back on costs for your bridesmaids, you may decide to:
– Cover the price of the dress and shoes, so that the girls are not out of pocket for your wedding
– Give them a gift certificate to get manicures before your wedding day or perhaps you will all go together for a pamper hour;
– Paying for their hair and make-up on the big day
Gifts for Destination Weddings
‘It doesn’t matter where you’re going, it’s who you have beside you’
Having your girls with you for your destination wedding is important, why not give them:
– Personalised travel blankets for the journey and lovely keepsakes to remember the wedding by
– Vouchers to attractions and activities for them to enjoy pre or post your wedding day
– A mini version of the wedding album to remind them of the wonderful experiences had
Personalised Gifts For Your Girls
‘Friendship isn’t a big thing – it’s a million little things’
Gifts don’t have to be expensive to be meaningful. You can opt for:
– Compact mirrors engraved with their names or initials, ideal to carry in their bags for a lifetime afterwards
– A collage of your best moments together – from the first time you met to this day
– An elegant frame with a photo and a personal message for each of your bridesmaids
– A notebook with a photo of the two of you on the cover
– A scented candle, which works really well, if you know each girl’s favourite smell
– Necklaces with initials which can be worn on the day and will be a great reminder of their role in the wedding. The colour of the metal can be changed to suit each of your bridesmaids colouring.
