Re: How Much $$$$$ DO You Spend on the BM's Gifts
I'm not sure how much I will spend yet. Possible around $50. But if you find something you like and feel they are worth it than I don't think it will be over the top! Whats your idea?

I don't think there is a set amount. It depends on a lot of things, how many bridesmaids you have, how much you're able to spend etc. Everyone's situation is different. I'm having 6 bridesmaids and a MOH and I'll probably spend $50 each at the most.

I know I'm crazy, of all things I've already begun the bridesmaid gifts (sorry boys, haven't started thinking about you yet). I went to the outlets and got the girls coach wristlets ($35), a couple knicknacks ($10), cosmetic bags to put the stuff in ($10) and I'm making them braclets and necklaces (probably about $20). So all in all it will probably be about $75.

I love the idea of the coach wristlets! I know all of my BMs would love that.
I'm having 4 BMs, 1 MOH, and 1 FG. I'm not sure how much I'm going to spend on them yet, but I want to spend at least $50 each.

I am going to spend about $50 also My matrons of honor (i have 2) may get a little something extra I still have some time to think about it tho. I was thinking of making them up bags with a few little things in it. Each will get a necklace to wear on the wedding day, Then a few little things thrown in.

I agree. I'm having a small BP so I will probably spend more.

I don't have a set amount. I know what I want to get them and I don't care how much it comes to.

Re: How Much $$$$$ DO You Spend on the BM's Gifts
All of my BM's are broke college students and have been in SO MANY weddings over the past year...so I've decided to pay for their BM dresses (not alterations). I figure since I can save money on other stuff I could splurge on them... I do have a cap of $150
