BP gifts

what are you girls doing for your bridal party gifts?

do you think all the girls gifts should be the same and all the guys gifts should be the same or do you think it would be ok if it was more personalized for each person?

do you think it would be ok if all the girls gifts are personalized and all the guys gifts are the same or vice-versa?

TIA!!

Re: BP gifts

I don't think it matters if you gave everyone the same gift, or each person different gifts, just as long as they are worth the same.

I was thinking about jewelry for my girls, but I might see something in a store that I like instead. I'm not shopping for the guys. FH is going to get the guys something on his own- but we agreed that we would both spend the same.

I dont know what the guys are getting, thats FH's job...But I do know that I am getting my girls the same thing, but I will be including something different (style/color) from the others for each girl...As long as everything is monetarily the same amount then I dont think it matters

Re: BP gifts

FH is planning to get the guys watches. I think he's going to to get the same brand but maybe different styles.

My girls will have the following:
Tote bag
Makeup brush kit
Makeup case
Lip gloss kit
Isotoner ballet slippers
DOJ
Jewelry Pouch
Double photo frame - these will be individualized because I'm going to put on one side of each frame a pic of me with each girl from when we were younger and leave the other blank for a wedding pic

My MOH's are getting bath and body sets instead of makeup brush and lip gloss kits. And I will probably buy them a different piece of DOJ. Oh and they have a different color tote bag.

originally I had no idea how much I was going to be spending on the BP gifts and then I had seen things and had picked them up, now it looks like for the girls it will be about $120 each, if I had planned on spending that much I would have just paid for each of their dresses and let them cover the alterations (dresses are $130)

I'm spending $100-150 on each girl. All of the items I've posted (except DOJ) I've gotten for AMAZING prices so far. The only thing on the list that I haven't gotten so far is DOJ and I've only spent $40 on each girl so far

Re: BP gifts

ugh i have NO idea of what to get I think that whatever we get, we'll get the guys the same thing and I'll prob personalize the girls gifts and get them something that fits their personalities.

grkbarbie Posted:

Re: BP gifts

Re: BP gifts

My BM's are spoiled!!!! I've gotten really good deals though.. So far we've got

Totebags (going to get them personalized via airbrush this weekend)
Key Chain cutout mirror with their names on it (each one is different to fit their personality)
'Bridesmaid' Button to put on the tote
Flip Flops (not the cheap ones the guests are getting in the flip flop basket)
DOJ (earring and necklace)
Multi-picuture picture frame that I will add some pics to for them.

maybe a hoodie or robe and/or jewelry/trinket box for the DOJ

I'm also paying for their hair/makeup/mani+pedi

The guys are each getting a very nice wooden trinket box that will hold throwing knives. (we got each one a different set based on personality)

I'm also thinking of giving each one a small bottle of liquor, but we'll see...

Re: BP gifts

I am trying to personalize my bridesmaids gifts but the groomsmen all got the same thing...they all like booze so they are getting flasks with some good booze to put in it I don't think they will mind at all.
