how to thank bridal party for bridal shower question??

Hey girls.

My invites are out but I, of course, don't know when the big day is. I do know where it is though ( my maid of honor is reeeeeeeally bad at keeping secrets) at my step mothers house and my that a lot of it is being planned and paid for by my bridesmaids.My question is, what is the protocol for saying thanks? Flowers to the house of the host the day after and then a nice gift to the bridal party ( I'm getting them massages the day before the wedding) or do I need to do more?

I don't want to insult anyone but also don't have too much $$ to spend. Please let me know what you've done for your girls or what's been done for you.

Thanks,
Val

I don't know if this is 'standard procedure,' but I got my Matron of Honor and 1 BM (the two girls that really did everything for my shower) an additional gift. I got them robes from the GAP, and I took them to lunch to say thank you.

You should definitely (IMO) send something to the host - flowers, or maybe a nice gift basket, but I don't think it's necessary to get anything extra for your girls. If you do want to do something, maybe take them all out for dinner or lunch? Or throw a little gift card in with their bp gift? Sephora is always fun!

but pretty much I bought all natural soap for each of them from www.thebubbleroome.com. I didnt want to break the bank and since its a shower I thought soap would be cute. they were just $7 each. They smell so good. FM me if you have any questions.

I will be taking my girls out for a bridesmaids'' luncheon.
