GIFTING the GIRLS: say thank-you to your bridesmaids

 Karen Buses, Celebrity Wedding Planner & Author

So many brides ask me for ideas about what kind of gifts to their bridesmaids. My main advice is to think about your ladies and who they are.Some brides like all their girls the same gift, while others take the time to individual presents to everyone's personality and style. what works for you is fine, but some thought to give to your style and which of them will help you put together something unique.

You can use your presents on the wedding day itself or on a lunch or a meeting with the downloads of the wedding. Below are some of my favorite picks for great Bridesmaid Gifts, but there is one thing you can't buy that must be included: a handwritten, personal note to each bridesmaid thank her for her love and support and to tell her how much she means to you.

Glamorous jewels: Jewelry is a classic bridesmaid gift. If you want for the coordination of the ladies accessories for the big day, you can gift them with matching accessories, or all individual styles, such as this romantic earrings will harmonize.

Pampering Presents: I also love a theme-oriented "Girls Swag Bag."If your wedding is chic and elegant, with a nice bag if this amazing black and white tote begin. Then, fill it with a Jacuzzi, a lotion, a scented candle, a herbal eye pillow, even a makeup kit or your favorite beauty products.


Beach-Bound Gifts: If your party in a fun, outdoor destination, consider handy, stylish tote bags in the colours of your wedding. You can use this with your maids names or initials. Just add flip-flops, subscribing to your favorite celebrity or fashion magazine, a few big sunglasses, and you're good to go anywhere! I love the fashion-forward handles on this beach totes.
         
Toast-Worthy deals with: For "foodie" bridesmaids, check out this fantastic two-bottle wine totes.Visit your local wine shop and order a case of Cava, Rose d'Anjou or Cabernet (often buying a case you will receive a discount), stock these cute bake with two bottles each.Just add a big satin ribbon, and help your ladies a toast to your love drink in style!

Personalised Presents:It also allows you to an experience instead of an object. Gift certificates for spa services (who doesn't like a free massage or mani-pedi?), Dinners on your favorite restaurant, tickets to an upcoming favorite concert, memberships to an art museum, or skydiving lessons! the key is to really think about your ladies and design something personal that will let them know how much you love and appreciate them. And remember that personal note!
