Wedding Party Gifts - Did you do them

Kate, on July 21, 2023 at 13:27 Posted in Before the wedding 0 11

What did you get for your bridal party, if anything, as a day of gift? I thought about getting personalized necklaces off of Etsy for the girls but I don't know what to get for the guys. I want it to be something that they will use in the future that isn't "only for the wedding" or going to end up in the junk drawer. Did you also get something for your FH?

    I did a gift box for everyone and I put it in a personalized box. I got them a robe (for pictures/getting ready) and it's personalized with their role, a bath bomb, a couple face masks and a chocolate bar. The night before, I'm planning on giving them a tote bag, a hanger for their dress, a glass/shot glass (haven't decided yet) as I'm thinking we get some pictures of us toasting while getting ready.

    We did not do anything personalized or engraved. The ladies are getting little pajamas to get ready in and I'm paying for their hair and make up. The gents are getting a good bottle of whiskey and glasses. We are also writing heartfelt letters to each of them. I recognize that our gifts are really only applicable to a small wedding party and you would probably go with something a bit cheaper if you have a lot of people standing with you

    We are doing tote bags for the ladies- tumbler for the day, cosmetic bag, mints, a small bottle of alcohol, tissues, compact mirror etc. that I am going to give them at my bridal shower. Both sides will have stemware with their names engraved on the head table.

    I made gift boxes on my own and tried to personalize it based on the girls’ interests. I have my sister’s maid of honour box picture below. I did want to get at least one wedding theme item - the Maid of Honour pouch is actually a “survival kit” for the wedding day. I had a personalized mug made and had the picture look like each of us, including the dress they wore that day. I got a “puff” that is their favourite colour. There is a LED lighted mirror they can use. The small black tube is actually a way for the girls to have their favourite perfume in it on the go - you get some perfume from their chosen larger container into a portable container. I also got body/foot lotion too. Many of these items I hope they can use in the future.

    On the wedding day I also got two wooden hangers for them each - no engraving on them just to hang their bridesmaid dresses and silk robes (in their favourite colour).

    My husband got flasks that are leather bound. He got the leather engraved with Best Man or Groomsman as a small gift for them.

    Girl- necklace with her name on it, earrings, purse with her name on it.
    Guys- bow tie, cuff links with their initials, and lapel pins. Everyone is travelling so everyone is getting a goodie bag filled with a travel pack, snacks, etc.

    For my girls I got robes with their names and titles for the morning when we are getting our hair and makeup done, tumblers with their names, tote bags, and earrings to wear on the big day. My FH got his guys personalized hatchets and socks with little moustaches on them. I got my FH a really nice watch, and will leave it for him the morning of with a little note “see you at the altar at 3”
