I know that sounds cheap, but the wedding is costing us so much. I really want to get my 5 girls and 2 MOHs something but what can i get for that amount? Please help.

Re: can i get BM gifts for under $20
YOu can get them a piece of silver jewelry, a cute pocketbook (clutch), a basket from Bath and Body Works, a gift certifiacte for mani and pedi (a little more than $20), a cute picture frame. The possibilities are endless. I got my girls cute Swarovski earrings for cheap.

I kind of think you should spend a little more if you can. I am not trying to be rude but these girls are also spending a lot of money on the wedding are they throwing the bridal shower (you may not know) they have to by dresses etc.
Maybe trying looking on E-bay and you may be able to get a sweet deal! On something that looks like you spent more then you did.
I am sure your bm's will understand!
It's only my opinion I hope you don't get mad that I said this.

Sure you can. You're not cheap...everyone has a different budget so don't think twice about it. These are all under $30 from redenvelope.com
Also try things remembered, pier 1, ebay, Century 21, Tri County Flea Market.
Look on overstock.com too. You might be able to get a good deal on jewelry or something there.

thingsremembered.com has a lot of stuff, and you can usually find the 20% off coupons too.

I second overstock! Also macy's may be having some good sales this weekend.

Overstock.com is great for that...
I don't know if you are crafty, but maybe you can make something meaningful for your BM's - I got mine each a necklace w/ their initial from things remembered, and I'm probably going to make them each a picture frame with a poem about our friendship and pictures of us through the years.

I think you can, but maybe try to be open to things a little above that too. Or try to get things on sale or with coupons so it's worth more than you spent. Make five different trips to BBB and use a 20% coupon each time, scope ebay overstock and clearance sales.
This is $35, so it's a little over your budget but I came across it today and I really like it b/ it combines the lotions with the lenox piece, which lasts forever (i'm a lenox fanatic...)
Yes, I did from Tri County Flee market. I got the girls sterling silver jewelry from there, b/c I was on a tight budget. But the jewelry was really pretty!

I got my girls compacts from lillian vernan they were $6 but now they are $10 & they do free personalization. I got them other stuff. Also check out bagettes.com--very cute gift--small makeup case with a picture on it...whatever picture you want. I made 1 for each of my bridesmaids--the picture was me with each of them & you can personalize it. Each one came out to be $25 with shipping and added stuff.

maybe something small and meaningful that would reflect your individual relationship with each girl... a travel guide to someplace you'd like to go together for a girls getaway - something personal and hand picked to fit each ones personality.
include a card, tell them why your are so honored to have them by your side on your wedding day - there must be different reasons for each one.
the best gifts IMO do not have a pricetag, they are well thought out and from the heart. cheesey - maybe... sue me.
