I've been a BM in alot of weddings and never received a gift. Seems to be a new trend (or maybe not, just never heard if it b4) .....is anyone NOT giving gifts?

I have always received a gift, some more generous than others.

We did not give gifts. We took our BM and GM out to dinner afterward. I have never liked the gifts I received so didn't feel like doing the same to them. But we are not gift givers as it is - none of us ever exchange gifts for the holidays or birthdays.

i didn't do gifts but I did pay for their hair and makeup which was pretty pricy. . also will send one of my BM and her hubby (our last minute GM) an extra gift bc they were SOOOOO generous and helpful with he. .

I have always gotten a gift and will be giving gifts. It may be a more recent tradition... I t hink perhaps in the past, the bride and/or her family would pay for the bride's maids dress and maybe hair and make up too.
