Picking the Perfect Bridesmaids Gifts

There are so many details to pore over when planning your wedding. Everything from dinner menu, music, flower arrangements, scheduling and more can stress many brides. Your bridesmaids are there with you through every step from the minute after the proposal right up to the point you leave for your honeymoon. Giving your bridesmaids the perfect gift is another detail to pore over because they are your close friends/family. Give them a gift they can cherish for years and always remember the joy of the big day and the part they played in standing by you. Some key things to remember when picking out the perfect bridesmaid’s gift:

1. Make it Personal: don’t even think about giving them a gift certificate or gift card. Instead, think about what they like and maybe even a special memory both of you shared. Pick something that tells her your relationship is important.
2. Keep it Simple: face it, you’ve already got a full plate planning for the wedding.  There’s no need to try to make an intricate gift. Keep it simple, but, elegant and tasteful. Jewelry is something every woman enjoys so figure out her favorite style and shop around for the perfect piece of jewelry.
3. Stay in Budget: every bride’s budget varies and every wedding costs vary. Do yourself a favor and know what your budget is for bridesmaids gifts. The gift you choose doesn’t have to be expensive…it just has to be personal.
4. Be Tasteful: it’s your big day and everyone already knows. Stay away from gag gifts or anything that even could belittle your bridesmaids (e.g. cards that say “You Don’t Look Good in White Anyway”). Keep it personal, simple and tasteful.
