Bridal party thank you gifts

I got my girls a personalized tumbler with straws, the idea was for them to use for water during the pictures, but no one used them. I also got them blanket scarves last minute because it was supposed to be cold and they used those all days. Looked beautiful in the pictures.

My Husband got the boys Yeti's with a small bottle of alcohol that they like. The guys are too simple so we didn't want to get something over the top

We only have one person on each side so I was thinking I may give her a perfume sampler so she can pick her own scent. FH can pick his gift for his guy.

We have just one MOH and one Best Man so they are both getting a pair on converse in the wedding colours

I would rather give them a little break on the costs of hair and makeup than to give them a gift. Weddings are already so expensive!


Another option could be gift cards catered to what they like (movies, books, fast food or fancy restaurants etc) so they can treat themselves.

I gave mine nail polish, luggage tags, jewerlly holders and hand sanitizer

If they don't feel they need jewelry or any drinking essentials, hair and make up is something you do for them as a gift for the day. They would appreciate that better to make it simpler with a thank you card to let them know how much they have helped out and being by your side on your day.

For the guys:

Wind up pocket watches with their initials engraved on them.

For the girls:

I wanted to make sure they use what I give them so what we all agreed to in the end was IOU's - they can use it as me taking them on a "date night", I can buy them something they would never buy themselves but it's a splurge, take them to get nails done, etc. or just simply ask for the cash. So far only 2/5 have taken me up on it though... I do remind them!

I paid for my sister's dress and hair and make up as her gift. We are also paying for my brother-in-laws suit rental and custom shirt. We'll probably gift my brother-in-law something additional as well to make the gifts even out.
