Re: I bought bridesmaids gifts - what do you think?

Maybe something else small, a gift certificate for a manicure & pedicure? I personally would be happy with just that but maybe another small small gift to go with it?

Re: I bought bridesmaids gifts - what do you think?

JPS - I don;t even know if it was a 'sale', the sample was marked 29.00, but when they brought the actually Lenox boxes out, they were marked $43 - so I am sure you will be fine. Thanks for the confidence. And I think Iwill do just what Jennababy said - manicaures and pedicures - we'll go together a couple of days before the wedding. (My wedding is the day after Thanksgiving, so we will go on Wednesday - thanksJennababy!)

Re: I bought bridesmaids gifts - what do you think?

I think I may go buy those as well. I really love those jewelry boxes!
I will give those with my manicure/pedicure & 1 hour massage gift certificates and my MOH gets an extra--I bought her a small pair of diamond earrings.
I am happy now because Ihad no clue what else to get the girls. Thanks luvleyles also!! We make a good team!

Re: I bought bridesmaids gifts - what do you think?

Your dress sounds veil sounds amazing - so does your dress! Do you have pics? I have a sweep train - let me know what you think about the veil. The lady in the pic seems to be wearing one. The invitation lady is all the way out in Coram, but she was great. Dazzle in Coram - probably too far though. Post pics! I need ideas of everything!
