For the girls I've already bought each a pair of earrings from a vendor on etsy ($35-$40), a personalized hanger ($18-$21) and plan on getting them a tumbler each ($14) and possibly an embroidered over sized shirt.

As for the guys, that's up to FH. I know he's getting each of them a white tshirt with a certain superhero symbol on them (for a photo at the wedding - his will be Batman lol). Not sure about what else because all the guys are SO different. I've seen some really cool things, like personalized pub or man cave signs , personalized mugs/glasses, and personalized beer sampling set.

I went to the Coach outlets and got my BMs wristlets (about $40 each). For the guys, we are getting them flasks from Things Remembered and engraving their names on them (we had rewards coupons from our flutes and cake cutting set purchase) and it came to about $35 a flask with the engraving.

I'm not much help because we only have a Maid of Honor & a Best Man... so I am able to spoil a little bit more. But for gift ideas, this is what I got for my MOH:

A tote with her first initial on it, engraved frame from Things Remembered, a case with 'survival items' in it, a MOB wire hanger, her day-of-jewelry (Bracelet & earrings) and I plan to pay for her hair to get done.

As for Best Man, that's all on my fiance'... so who knows what he is planning to give his BM haha

I spent approximately $200 per girl. I bought the girls faux fur shawls, muffs, day of necklace & bracelet. I did some little items personalized christmas ornament, hot coco shower gel etc..
I am also working on day of kits for each maid.

For the groomsmen (hoping to spend way less) FH is planning on buying each something personal to them. Example: golf clothing, good bottle of alcohol. We have also purchased the GM's bow ties and handkerchiefs.

Hope that helps!

Me too! I started back in June, everyone thought I was crazy for starting early but I did so good with sales and coupons lol I spent about $60 on everyone

-Day of Jewelry Pearl and Crystal Necklace and Pearl Earrings $35 ($100 orignally had a half off sale and I had a 30% off coupon)
-Etsy Hangers $15
-Robes with Matching Nightys $11($40 orignally 60% off sale and 30% coupon)

We are going to get the guys leather gloves and tuxedo scarves in December. My FH has a card for 50% at mens warehouse which is active in December.

I feel like an extreme couponer lol.
