how much

are you planning on spending on your BMs?
and what are you planning to do for them?

Re: how much

I've bought my girls the following:

Tote bag
Makeup brush kit w/ case (BM's only)
Lip gloss kit (BM's only)
Bath & Body kit (MOH's only)
Jewelry pouch
Totes Isotoners ballet slippers
Double picture frame with a pic of me with each BM on one side and the other side left blank for a wedding pic
Swarovski necklaces (different style necklace for MOH's)
Crystal brooch for their dress

I got GREAT deals on all of these, and it averages to like $110 per girl, which is EXACTLY what I wanted to spend. Depending on finances, I *might* buy my MOH's the matching earrings to their necklaces.

Re: how much

Not sure of the exact amount. I have to figure that out after everything is paid for and I see how much I have left in the budget.

My ideas for them are:

- Coach wristlets
- Spa Gift Certificates along with a few little goodies.
- digital frame (inspired by another LIW bride)
- their DOJ

My MOHs (I have two) i am planning on giving/doing a little something extra for them (maybe pay for their hair the day of the wedding, or mani/pedi)

where did u get the crystal brooch from? i want to get one for my MOH but dont really know where to look.........

Re: how much

I think I'm gonna be about $75 each, I have gotten sweet deals that would have put me over $100/each.

Re: how much

i'm hoping not to go over 75 each... i've already spent 50 on each of them for coach wristlets and i was thinking of putting a gift card inside each.

Re: how much

I honestly have no idea right now.. Whenever I see a sale of stuff, I'm just going to pick it up & we shall see how much I spend and how much stuff I got in 3 years hehe

Re: how much

I spent 100 each so far on gold necklaces.

Re: how much

Since my wedding is less than 50 people and is kind of a destination wedding I will be paying for either the dresses or the hotel rooms. I am also buying pearl earrings or necklaces for under $50 a piece.

Re: how much

I got my girls monogrammed makeup bags and filled them with little things that were personalized for them. I think total it was about $75 each, but I only have 3 BM's so it's not too bad.
