Brides and grooms usually exchange gifts with each other on their wedding day; getting a gift for your bridesmaids is a great way to thank them for their participation in your wedding. There are many worthwhile options for bridesmaid gifts that you can personalize. Here are five gift ideas for your bridesmaids.
Personalized Candles
A candle is a great way to say thank you to your bridesmaids. Candles come in various scents so shop around for a scent pairing that your bridesmaids will like. The containers are available in various colors, and a stylish idea is to pair container color to your bridesmaid’s dress color. This gift can be paired with soaps or bath salts as an additional way to thank your bridesmaids. The label can be personalized with your bridesmaids’ initials or the date of your wedding day.
Bridesmaids Accessories Gift Box
Every bridesmaid enjoys smaller gifts that work not only for your wedding day, but for everyday as well. This gift box can be anything but consider: necklaces, bracelets, scrunchies, anklets, and hair accessories. You can use your favorite color as inspiration, your bridesmaids’ favorite colors, or colors that are included in your wedding theme.
Small Plant or Seeds in a Bowl
A plant is a unique and practical gift for your bridesmaids. Plants can come in a variety of sizes, flowering or non-flowering, so pick your favorite. It’s a good idea to pick a low maintenance plant for your gift. Seeds are another way to show your appreciation. Seed packets can be customized for your wedding including your names, date, etc. Pair custom seed packets with a planting bowl. Another option is to have a build your own planter night as a fun way to bond before the wedding.
A Bridal Party Bag and Make-Up Bag
For bridesmaids, they’re going to need something to keep all their wedding day items, and a stylish bag or clutch is an easy way to keep everything they need in one place. They come in a variety of options such as tote bags, clutches, pouches, or a string backpack. Consider selecting a style based on the logistics of your wedding; a backpack style may be ideal for a destination. A personalized cosmetic bag is also a great way to keep their accessories in one place and offers an easy way to carry make-up or hair products.
Monogrammed Journal
Bridesmaids need a journal to plan events and write down dates just like a bride does. The journal can be used to note dates for the bridal events, fittings, and appointments for wedding events. It can be a memorable keepsake for your bridesmaids. It can also be used after the wedding for everyday planning or journaling your thoughts. Journals can be found in many colors, styles, and materials, and be monogrammed with your bridesmaids’ initials. Pair with a classic writing instrument for a more personal touch.
