Ideal Gifts for BMs and Groomsmen?

What are you giving your MOH and bridesmaids as gifts? And what is your FI giving the groomsmen? I have no idea what I'm supposed to give or what's customary to give.

Re: Ideal Gifts for BMs and Groomsmen?

There's nothing specific you're supposed to give, but a lot of people I know have given something that the BM can wear the day of the wedding. I'm giving my girls a lot of stuff, but only because I found some really good deals. I got them Garnet and marquisite necklaces and earings (Garnet is my birthstone and my dresses are a wine color- $20 on sale in Macy's), aromatherapy packages (I made them myself from things on sale in Bath & Body Works- about $13 a girl) and pajamas (we're all spending the night before my wedding at a hotel-$16 on sale in Macy's). I'm also looking to get them frames and then later a photo from the wedding to fill it. I'm also thinking about getting the BM and GM these cute fleece blankets from Things Remembered with their names on them ($20). My fiance isn't sure what else to get his guys, but I thought martini sets would be a good idea. Also, think about if your GM all have a hobby or interest in common and try to give a themed gift.

Re: Ideal Gifts for BMs and Groomsmen?

I am giving the BM's all white gold jewelry. A pair of white gold with diamonds earrings and a diamond necklace. My MOH will wear the same plus i am giving her a white gold diamond ring as well. I bought it at Macy's when they had this HUGE sale and only ended up spending $100/pp.

As for GM, my FI wants to get the 2 GM a MP3 player as for the BM he isn't sure yet.

Re: Ideal Gifts for BMs and Groomsmen?

I have asked this question on here a dozen times and finally made a decision..

I got my girls their pashminas, a personalized compact mirror and a pave heart necklace to wear for the wedding... might get them a little somehting else since their gifts were on sale..

My 2 MOH - I still have yet to get them their gifts.. they are getting the the pashminas and the mirror but Iwant to get something big.. I dont have a relationship w/my mother so my sister has been my mother figure...


My fi got the guys each a Yankee ticket to go to a game- they are all friends- in june.. It far enough away so they could all try and make it. Then he is buying them 'Bomber Bucks' that will go towards food and beer.

As for GM, NO CLUE....


BM....We are definitely getting him a personalized NFL Jersey, with His name and number 1 on it....But we have to decide what else to give him....

Fg, I am goiong to get her a jewelry box and a gold charm bracelet, so its somethig she can wear for a lot of years, I will get her regular adult size but weave in a gold chain so it can fit her now....
