Your bridesmaids are the MVPs of your wedding day, the ones who keep you calm before your aisle debut, make sure your dress is perfectly positioned at the altar, and help you with bathroom trips during the reception. To ensure that they know exactly how much they\u2019re appreciated, you\u2019re going to want to pick out some sweet and thoughtful presents that they\u2019ll cherish for a lifetime. The key is to pick items they\u2019ll actually use and that will trigger memories from your wedding<\/a> for years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf Matching Robes or Tees for Getting Ready<\/strong> \u2014Nothing makes a cuter photo and one you\u2019ll cherish for a lifetime, than you and your girls getting ready on the day of the wedding<\/a>. Matching satin robes or custom-printed tees will make it extra-special. Tie it all together with a pair of monogrammed slippers for some extra coziness.
\u25cf A Candle That Honors Your Friendship<\/strong> \u2014Whether it\u2019s a supremely sweet fragrant love candle<\/a> or a road trip candle<\/a> that reminds you of that crazy cross-country trip you took together in college, you can\u2019t go wrong when with the gift of hand-poured aromas. Light the candle throughout all the wedding festivities, such as at the shower and bachelorette party, and then give it as a gift to keep the memory alive when it\u2019s all over.
\u25cf Personalized, Matching Makeup Bags<\/strong> \u2014Since you usually give your bridesmaids their gifts<\/a> on the night of the rehearsal dinner or morning of the wedding, it makes sense to make it something beauty-related. Grab some embroidered makeup bags and stuff them with a few special surprises for a smile-inducing gift.
\u25cf A Bottle of Champagne<\/strong> \u2014Obviously you\u2019re going to want to pop a bottle (or four) as you\u2019re getting your hair and makeup done on the big day, but why not use the bubbly as a gift so your girls can enjoy it the next time they\u2019re celebrating something big? You might even consider finishing the bottles with custom labels for the occasion<\/a>!
\u25cf Matching Friendship Necklaces<\/strong> \u2014Remember when you were in third grade and you and your best friend were bonded for life over your half-heart necklaces? This is that all over again but with all your besties, not just one. Get the simple, dainty necklaces with their initials for a personalized but matching option.
\u25cf Personalized Note Cards \u2014Everybody wants the opportunity to send a sweet note on their own personal letterhead, and why not? Your bridal party will love opening up a set of custom note cards and envelopes designed in fonts and patterns to match their individual personalities.
\u25cf Monogrammed Flats for Post-Photo Dancing \u2014Show what a cool and laid-back bride you are by giving all your girls some comfy, monogrammed ballet flats they can slip into after dinner. Because let\u2019s face it, it\u2019s way better than dancing barefoot (and risking your feet getting crushed) or losing your shoes in the process. You can also surprise them with some flip-flops to ease the pain of wearing heels all day.
\u25cf A Box of Custom Chocolates \u2014They say chocolate says, \u201cI love you,\u201d and we think that goes for platonic love, too. There are so many creative chocolatiers out there who make one-of-a-kind candy creations that take gift-giving up a few notches. To get some ideas on chocolate artists who can make you a box like no other, look to Instagram.
\u25cf A Self-Care Kit for the Morning After \u2014Acknowledge that being in someone\u2019s wedding can be stressful, time-consuming, and costly. After a full weekend of wedding activities, encourage your girls to rest and recoup with a well-stocked self-care basket complete with bath bombs, aromatic oils to diffuse and face masks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u25cf A Framed Photo of the Whole Crew<\/strong> \u2014During the bridal shower<\/a>, bachelorette party or dress shopping outing, make sure to have someone take your photo as a group so you can have it printed and framed as a special gift for the whole crew<\/a>. You might even consider having it printed on wood, glass or fabric for a special twist.
\u25cf A Book About Friendship<\/strong> \u2014We don\u2019t want to be too cheesy, but remember that this is the time in your life that you get to be super sentimental with your besties, so take advantage of it. A card and a book about friendship will really get the emotions flowing, no matter if it\u2019s a book of poems or a literary masterpiece focused on friends<\/a>.
\u25cf A Passport Cover<\/strong> \u2014If it\u2019s a destination wedding or if the vast majority of your crew has traveled to be with you on your big day, it makes sense to make your bridesmaids\u2019 gifts travel-inspired. Monogrammed passport covers or luggage tags are always popular among jet-setting crews.
\u25cf A Pair of Personalized Sunglasses<\/strong> \u2014Anything you can give your girls that also doubles as a fun photo prop is a win-win for wedding day fun. Give your girls some bold, personalized sunglasses, preferably in a rainbow of hues, and make sure the photographer snaps some pics of everyone sporting them together.
\u25cf A Comfy, Monogrammed Blanket<\/strong> \u2014Everyone appreciates the sentiment of a cozy, restful night in, which is why personalized blankets always make popular presents. This is an awesome option for fall and winter weddings, especially, but works year-round, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pair it With a Handwritten Note<\/strong>
We know that your to-do list is longer than it has ever been, and spare time is in short supply, but make sure to write each and every one of your bridesmaids a handwritten note to accompany your gift. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
