    Trying to figure out what to give your bridesmaids? There’s no correct way and specific gift but just like any gift, hopefully you can find something that they’ll like. Being part of the wedding party requires alot of money on their part so if you can do something to relieve that financial burden, I’m sure it would be appreciated. You can give a pair of earrings, necklace, or bracelet that they can wear to the wedding but tasteful enough that they would choose to wear after the wedding is over. Some brides will consider paying for hair & makeup or the bridesmaid’s dress as the gift...

    Photo by Robert Evans Studios. After seeing the new Bridesmaid movie (hilarious! Finally some good girl humor) we had a sudden urge to be sure that your lovely ladies-in-waiting get the proper treatment.  After all, they put in a lot of blood, sweat and tears in for their brides and best of friends (and let’s not forget the time and money).  Friends take on this important role lovingly and with open hearts, so it’s only fitting you remind them of your love and admiration right back.  We’ve gathered a few fun and sweet ways to make your girls feel special.

    So now that we've gotten the groomsmen (see yesterday's post) taken care of, let's cover the girls.

Picking gifts for your bridesmaids can be so much fun, and can be something which creates yet another amazing memory between the two of you. Personal gifts are always so sweet and things they can use for years to come!                         &...

  • I have been in several weddings and have received some ho-hum gifts that I have never used again. So for my wedding I wanted to put a bit of thought into my gifts. I wanted to give my bridesmaids something they will use more than just once. Below are the gifts I am thinking of giving everyone, and then adding in a couple personalized gifts for each girl. I have already got the monogrammed totes that I am putting everything in. Then its just some simple gifts that are relaxing! A plush robe, some shower gel, candles and my favorite wine, Cakebread.
