$0 Bridal Shower Gift Ideas

Ashley, on June 24, 2019 at 16:41 Posted in Before the wedding 0 9

Hello Everyone!

We are in the midst of planning my bridal shower. The shower will be only 4 days before my wedding as I have pushed it as long as I can so that my Groom's family can attend as they live a plane ride away from us.

Since it is only a few days before the wedding, I feel bad about getting my guests to spend money on gifts back to back. So, I was thinking of asking my bridal shower guests for something personal, like favourite recipe or something that is of sentimental value instead of monetary. Does anyone have any suggestions?? The furthest I got was recipes haha. Cheers!

    Oh what a great idea, I love the recipe idea especially if it's an old family favourite, it's something that can be passed down over and over!

    Thats really considerate of you ! The recipe's would be great, ask everyone to bring one so it can be added into a large book for you, ask for photo of the person attending and on back a piece of advice for the lasting long marriage, if some people local and want to they could cook the recipe and bring for people to try along with recipe.

    Different is always good and making something your guests can share with you of food. Recipes to make when family or friends coming to visit making those dishes they enjoy or trying for the first time. Keep this idea since it savings and will mean more to you.

    The recipes and marriage advice are very popular at showers.

    Sentimental gifts are also amazing. If you say you don’t want people spending a lot of money they are forced to be creative!

    Recipes is a cute idea.

    Or Maybe a copy of their favorite photo they have of you.

    Pieces of Marital Advice to make a book from...

    or Favorite not typical date night activities to keep married life interesting..


    That or you could do like a $5 or $10 gift cap and have it themed... like item's to pamper yourself.

    Or movie snacks. Or Wedding day essentials to make a survival kit. (Sewing kits, tide 2 go, etc)
