So last week someone asked about what gifts people were giving their bridesmaids and a lot of people answered totes. I too plan on giving my bridesmaids each a tote bag with their names or intials on them as part of their gift. I have been researching and priced out Lands End, LL Bean, and The Knot all for the medium sized open top totes. Prices were pretty similar with LLBean most expensive and The Knot least expensive. I was wondering if anyone ordered their bags from any of these sites and if you have any feedback on the quality. Is one company better than the other? Also do either LE or LLB ever have sales or coupon codes? I know The Knot does so if I decide to go with them I would wait for a good sale. If you are not DIYing your totes, where are you buying them from? Thanks in advance for any and all feedback!!

I got them from vistaprint and they came out great! Shipped quick and didn't have a single issue. I got one for each of my girls and one for each of my FMIL & mom..

I have 2 of the lands end totes and they are completely indestructable. and if you do somehow manage to kill one, lands end replaces things FOREVER... you could literally send it back in 10 years and they'll send you a new one. i LOVE them. they are more expensive than the others and I have 7 girls though, so we'll see.

The same is true for LL Bean. They will replace it forever.

Thanks for all the input girls! I am thinking I want to splurge the few extra dollars per girl and go for either the LLBean or Lands End totes. It will be worth it if its something that they can use forever. I'll definitely keep an eye out for a sale. Maybe something will come up for black Friday!
