I say day of jewelry, maybe a little clutch that will compliement your girls dresses.
Flip flops are always a good choice
You could go with a zippered hoodie for the morning of, that way when they get their hair done they won't have to put a shirt over their heads.
robes,
Just some thoughts.

How about a gift certificate to get a spa massage or something that they can use outside of the wedding day. Jewelry is nice too if they all have the same taste.

I read about this idea in a magazine and have had the page bookmarked ever since..

You can custom make purses for the girls...or they can make their own. The pricing isn't bad (imo) - so i may be doing that along with jewelery boxes with stars on them (to match my theme).

For the guys - they are all sports nuts (as are my FH and myself) - so we'll be getting them sports related items...clock, etc..

When I was in a wedding, I got the day of jewelry and socks to wear the night of. They were so adorable!

I'm giving my girls the ipod shuffle, they engrave it for free on apple.com.

Re: Gift Ideas

We are paying for their hair/makeup..giving them slippers to wear to the reception... and their jewlery. And I think I will make them tanks that say Bridesmaid and Maid of Honor for the bach party. I made myself a bride tank and undies and stuff and one of my BM's saw it and said she wanted one- so I think I will make them all one!

Re: Gift Ideas

since your wedding date is in the summer how about perosonalized beach bags with summery contents in them?

Re: Gift Ideas

I thought of the beach bag idea but I didn't see any that I loved. Any suggestions of where to purchase a cute beach bag?

Do you want ones that are from Lands End or straw totes? Tons of stores are having their summer sales now and have both types of beach bags - NY & Company, Old Navy, Macys, etc.

I LOVE the LL Bean bags and they are so inexpensive. You can have them monogramed as well. If you speak to them on the phone, you can even have different color thread used instead of the standard ones that they have listed on the site.

Re: Gift Ideas

we got the guys engraved leather duffel bags(the names were punched into the leather)....they LOVED them because they are so practical and were SO nice(and they were only 40 bucks!!!) the BM's got day of jewelry(bracelet and earrings) from www.partytimejewelry.com (AWESOME site - HUGE selection & SO reasonable) along with engraved compact mirrors and little pocketbooks to match their dress. FG's got fur capes(december wedding) along with earrings and a necklace and a barbie bride stamp(lol)....i also made DIY hair comb and gloves. Ring bearer & Jr. FG who were only 2yrs old got personalized backpacks filled with a FG & RB sweatsuit, a personalized sippy cup, coloring books, crayons & a small toy(little doll for the FG, race car for the boy.)

Good Luck!
