Show your Gratitude with These Practical and Personalized Bridal Party Gifts
Gifts are one of the fun parts of a wedding – whether it’s the wedding gift for the new couple or the gifts the bridal party exchanges – you will enjoy giving or getting these special gifts.
Today, you can find plenty of useful gifts at reasonable prices. For a more personal touch, make it a gift you can personalize with an initial or inscription.
Bride
We’re not talking wedding presents here – but the gifts the bridesmaids might give the bride on the night of her bachelorette party or as favors at a shower. How about a couture camisole with the word “bride” set in rhinestones on the front? She can wear it on her night on the town and everyone will know which young lady is getting married next. For a different cut, try a soft tank top with wide straps – and again the word “bride” set in rhinestones. Another variation is a white tank top emblazoned with a tattoo-type design featuring a wedding ring and the words “bride to be.”
Maybe the bridesmaids want to put together a fun honeymoon bag for their favorite bride, starting with a large, roomy white canvas tote bag with black handles and accents. Screen printing on the bag feature wedding words like joy, love, forever, laughter, bliss, smile and hope. Tuck in a pair of white flip flops with the word “bride” on the sole, a pink hat with “bride” in rhinestones and some pretty lingerie.
Groom
Just as there are shirts and hats for the bride, there are items for the groom to wear during his bachelor party. How about a throwback style T shirt for the all-star groom?
The bride might also want to offer her groom a gift just before the wedding. Consider a unique pair of silver cufflinks, in the shape of numbers (0 to 9) packaged in a small silver box. You choose the two numbers to give him – maybe the year you’re getting married or the date of your wedding. You can decide on that, as well as what to have engraved on the top of the box they come in.
Wedding Guests
Many couples use a small gift to thank their guests for being part of the big day. Usually these gifts have a reminder of the wedding day – like the couple’s initials or the date of the wedding. One suggestion would be a heart-shaped silver-plated paper weight. Made of brass and then plated in silver, this paper weight can be engraved with up to 20 characters on each of the two lines. It measure 2 inches by ¾ of an inch.
Bridesmaids
Jewelry is always a nice gift, but a more practical expression of thanks for your bridesmaids would give them something they can use again and again – like The Cosmopolitan monogrammed cosmetic travel bag. Its chic black look with pink trim gives it a very hip, urban look. It’s made of easy-to-clean black polyester with pink satin piping in a cross stitch pattern. The front of the bag has a place for one initial, adding that personal touch. Best of all, this bag is a roomy 8½ inches long by 5¾ inches tall by 5 inches deep – big enough to hold your cosmetics and overnight supplies.
A really thoughtful gift would be a Couture Bridesmaid Damask tote bag. Made of an elegant black and white Damask print, the tote bag is perfect for a bridesmaid who wants to take along a curling iron, make-up or other essentials on the big day. Everyone will know the bag belongs to someone in the wedding party, thanks to the embroidered nametag that reads “Bridesmaid.”
Or maybe you could give your girls a personalized bridesmaid picture frame to frame a special snapshot of the big day. Framed in black, the matting is white with black letters, spelling words like bridesmaid, confidant, spa, diamonds, chocolate, memories, secrets and friendship – all experienced by brides and their bridesmaids. The frame measures 8 inches by 10 inches, and the matte is designed to frame a 4-inch by 6-inch photograph. In the lower corner of the matte is a place where you can personalize the frame with two lines of text, up to 20 characters per line.
Groomsmen
Manly gifts are at the top of the list for the groomsmen, starting with a Klondike lockback knife with a built-in flashlight. The handle of the knife has room for an appropriate inscription. It measures 4 inches closed and 7 inches open.
If your friends are not the outdoors type, then maybe a Fix-it Key Chain would be a good answer. This keychain holds your keys as well as two small screwdrivers. The stainless steel case can be personalized with three initials.
And if nothing else seems quite right for your group of groomsmen, there are always 13-ounce sports mugs. Each mug has space for two lines of text, up to 10 characters per line.
Amid all the hustle and bustle of wedding planning, even small gifts can brighten anyone’s day. Find your perfect mementos now.
