Re: Bridal Party Gifts
I spent about $125 each but I didn't mean to - I thought I'd keep it at $75. I got them chandelier earrings, pashminas, a skin care boxed gift from Sephora & clutch bags.FH probably spent about $80 per guy - Coach credit card holders and a shirt that is significant to him.

Re: Bridal Party Gifts
oh i love this question. cuz i have the same issue of what to get them. i have an idea, but i want different ones. im spending on each of them like $75-100 depending on what i see. that is probably too much to spend. so im debating..if you get them jewelery you will probably assume to spend around $50ish i would think depending on what you are looking to get :)hope this helps. any ideas of what to get ?

Re: Bridal Party Gifts
Pashminas I tried to order off Orient Trend but the color didn't match, so I actually ended up getting black off ebay.Chandelier earrings I got from Bloomingdales - originally $60, on sale for $30.
Gift set was $25 - a portion goes to the Susan G. Komen Foundation which I liked b/c October is Breast Cancer Awareness month.
Clutch purses I got from a boutique near my co-op in Forest Hills. Originally $85, I cut a deal with the guy for $50 each - they match the dresses perfectly.

Re: Bridal Party Gifts
I cant stop buying things for themI got them personalized hoodies (about $30)

I got them necklaces (about $25 after discount)
I'm getting them a Sephora Gift card ($25)
I'm also giving them silver slippers before they hit the slipper basket ($1.50)
And a nice black microfiber bag to carry it all in!
ETA b/c of someone asked:
I think I may have miscalculated on the hoodies. I bought the hoodies plain from target.com for under $20 somewhere between $15-$19 and the embroidery was about $19 for each. So maybe it was closer to $40.

Re: Bridal Party Gifts
I'm not sure how much we are going to spend, our BP in total is 22 people.
That will end up being alot of money no matter how little I try to spend, which of course I probably will spend a good amount on each of them.
