Did you buy yours yet? And if so, how are you wrapping them?
I bought only the girls gifts so far, still waiting on John to decide (like usual) on the guys stuff.
I bought beautiful silver foil paper yesterday with purple curling ribbon and I also bought silver foil bags with purple tissue paper.
I also got my favor wrap, a HUGE, HEAVY roll of professional wrap for $65 a few weeks ago and this is also silver foil. I need lilac organza ribbon & then I am complete!
Some of the BP gifts will be wrapped and some will be in bags. I love getting little things done!

Re: Bridal Party & Favor wrap
My BP gifts will be in baskets, b/c I'm getting each member an assortment of gifts. The CD favors will be in Organza bags (I actually found them REAL inexpensive online)
Edit to add I can get the various baskets at Micheals

Re: Bridal Party & Favor wrap
I have to see if my favors are coming in boxed or loose. If they are boxed I'll wrap them. I was thinking of getting the organza bags but I'm afraid that the ornaments might break!

Re: Bridal Party & Favor wrap
ours are boxed and we are in the process of wrapping them already. We are wrapping them in white paper and have white organza thick ribbon with gold wire edging (god forbid something is not in my color scheme LMAO) I even bought the bow maker so there will be big beautiful bows on them. Once I have one completly done I will take pictures and share. In the meantime...here is a picture to share with you guys...our hersheys minatures that go in the gift boxes.
Jennbaby...notice on the hersheys I only used the ones with the gold foil and the wrappers are white. Here is a picture of the buttermilk mints. You can't really tell but these are white wrappers with....yup you guessed it, gold lettering!
And last place you can make fun of me and my obsession with the color scheme is a picture of our guest baskets...notice also gold as well! Yes! I DO KNOW that I have problems!
I'm loving your theme Debbie! the baskets are 2 cute!! What a great idea!!

Re: Bridal Party & Favor wrap
The easiest way to make professional looking bows every time from almost any type of ribbon. Makes hundreds of styles and sized of designer bows. As seen on those late night television info-mercials...LOL I have not used it yet, but when I get to that part I will let you know how it works out. I got it for 9.95 at Michaels.
Debbie - I HAVE one of those bow makers and it works AWESOME!!! - It makes SUCH professional looking bows!!

Re: Bridal Party & Favor wrap
we got our paper from papermart.com I love my paper it is exactly what I was looking for: shiny, heavy and bright white. Here is the link
Please note this is the first one I wrapped and that is not the bow AT ALL! I will be using the bowmaker to make big beautiful puffy bows out of that same ribbon. Just wanted to give you an idea of what paper marts stuff is like.
