Re: Newlyweds, what did you give for bridal party gifts?

All the girls in the wedding party got bracelets to wear that day, Groomsmen got engraved pens, readers got engraved photoalbums, RB and my nephew who helped out at the church got little sports clocks that they were thrilled with. I one-stop shopped at Things Remembered, and everyone seemed to love their gifts, especially the engraved photo albums.

My girls got a 5x7 picture frame and pear/diamond earrings. My maid of honor also got a coach bag. The men got coach wallets and a bottle of their favorite liquor. The best man got a coach planner and a coach 5X7 picture frame. All the frames had an IOU and will get a picture as well. My little nephew (ring bearer) got a lionel train set and my cousin (follow girl) got a bride barbie and a Madame Alexander flower girl collector doll. Our parents got 8x10 Lenox frames!

We bought the guys sunglasses - which went over really well.
We bought the girls multi-stone necklaces in a flower shape from Macy's.
We bought the FG a bracelet, and my nephew the RB, a video game. I wasn't too happy about that, but what can you do?

My girls all got matching necklaces, bath & Body works shower gel/body splash. I gave them cotton Blosson, because it was a light blue, and the BM dresses were ice blue., and I got them manicure/pedicures.

Re: Newlyweds, what did you give for bridal party gifts?

TheBMS all recieved gold bracelets- the MOH bracelet had semi-precious stones. The Ring Bearer and flower girl both recieved gold ID bracelets.

The Groomsmen all recieved small handheld HTS which are ham radio radio equipment- since they were all amatuer radio operators!! the only one that wasn't a 'ham' was RObs bro in law so we got him a set of FRS radios (to use with the kids)
