Favorite Gifts

Hi Girls,
I am the MOH for my friend's wedding and I am trying to get her creative gifts for her shower. I wanted to know what were some of your favorites from your showers? TIA!

Holiday baskets!!! I did this for my sisters wedding and she is doing it for mine. When you see items like xmas, easter, halloween, 4 of july, etc you can gather some decorations and make a basket.

also they have candle baskets and wine baskets

My MOH got me a bride tank that says 'THE BRIDE', then a picture of me and underneath, 'I'm Kind of a BIG DEAL'

She also got me thongs that have my FH's name on them.

She gave me a candles with a candle poem:
A Basket of Candles for ____

A basket of candles that come in a pair
In all different colors, for you two to share
The white ones burn first
They are wrapped in white lace
To celebrate your first married night
In your new chosen place.
The green pair is taller, and also much thinner
Burn with the first company, you have over for dinner.
The dark blue candles are for after your first fight
Use them to burn while making up all night.
Pink candles set the mood and pave the way
For your first married Valentine’s Day.
Now, when your first year of marriage is through
The cream anniversary pair, will light for you two.
Red candles aflame, both your futures are bright
Celebrate promotions you’ve worked toward with all of your might.
By this time we hope, maybe, just maybe
You can light the purple ones, on the birth of your baby.
And just when you thought you’d put these away
Take the light blue ones out-for your fifth anniversary day.
Now just one more pair left - for the big 2 5
The anniversary pair that will keep your love alive.
Congratulations ____ and _____
On the start of your forever
May the two of you always be happy together
And burn these candles
Just the way we said
But please don’t forget-blow them out before bed!

She gave me a serving platter from my china.

Oh, and she bought this adorable bride with a veil.
It's hard to describe, but it was so pretty. She said that hopefully I will have a little girl someday and I can put it in her room. I dont have any closeups but i'll see if I can find a pic from far away.

You can make her a towel cake. That's what my mom did...and I made one for my SIL when I was her MOH.

How much do you want to spend? My mom gave me a hope chest with all of this memorabilia in it.

HTH!!!
