bridal shower hostess gifts

My bridal shower hosted by my mom and sister will be next weekend. My bridesmaid are helping with decor and the activities. Do I get a thank you for hosting and helping gift? My shower is Kate Spade themed. What do you think would be appropriate for those hosting (my mom and sister) and my bridesmaids assisting?
I was thinking of getting the bath and body works champagne toast shower gel and lotion to match the theme.

    Yes I figured it was linked to the theme and not breaking the bank.
    If I knew what my end of gift was going to be this would be easier.

    I agree my mom and sister probably dont expect anything but I was worried about etiquette for the bridesmaids. I know they're not hosting but they are helping to set up and planning the games. So I figured for them they would get the soap but my mom and sister I'm not sure.

    I was originally thinking to just give a gift at the end but then I was starting to think it may not be proper etiquette.
    I really like the BBworks just cause it sounds Kate spadeish without breaking the bank

    I would get a gift at the very end as a thank you for everything. I would give them a thank you card for the gift and helping that day. I am doing thank you gifts day of wedding for everyone as a thank you for helping with all the events and being there.

    This is such a tough situation. I also have my mom and sister throwing my shower for me, and I didn't think of what to get them. Knowing my mom and sister, they'd think anything is too much (plus they know I'm paying for their hair and makeup for the wedding, so they say that's enough).

    I'd maybe take your mom and sister out for a nice lunch or dinner as a thank you (unless you know for sure that they like shower gel and lotion from bath and body works).

    My step mom is planning my shower (my side of the family ) and my wedding party hasn’t really stepped up to this. So I will just be including her thank you with her gift overall the day of the wedding.
    I think the shower gift is nice! You don’t really have to go too over the top for a shower gift when you are doing thank you gifts for the wedding

    Personally I won't be getting anything as a thank-you other than maybe buying them coffee or something. Their main thank-you's will be on the day of the wedding when their "jobs" as BM's and whatnot are complete.

    If you want then I think the Bath & Body Works idea is sweet though Smiley smile
