Is this a good idea for BP gifts ?

For my girls I was thinking of giving them a gift certificate ($50) towards their hair and nails, the jewelry for the wedding, and a personalized picture frame that will be filled with a picture of us together after the wedding. How does this sound?
Don't know what to do for the guys yet. Any ideas?

that sounds like a great idea! someone posted about groomsmen gifts last week - maybe some ideas in that thread?

Thats a great idea! What jewelry did you buy them? I love pictures - I'm going to give my girls one of the professional pics also. But, I personally wouldn't like a personalized frame - just a nice silver one.

And giving $$ towards hair and nails will be greatly appreciated! Everything is so expensive!

That is a very gernerous gift for the girls. I know as a BM for my sisters wedding, I would love something like that. Guys usually like to get, sport tickets for a game (hockey, baseball, basketball), beer mugs, money clips, cigar cutter with a package of cigars, ect... all personalized. We haven't decided on our gifts yet, because there are so many great things to give them.

That is an excellent idea for the guys. I never even thought of sports tickets. Most of them would love that. Thanks. I haven't picked out the jewelry for the girls yet, I still have some time but i will post pic when i pick one out. Thank everyone.

What about cologne for the guys? Tacky?

For the guys we got them traveling kits from Chanel...inside there was cologne, shaving cream and other goodies. It was a big hit. (Most of my husbands friends including him before he met me, would throw all their bathroom necessities in a plastic bag when they travel).

Sports tickets is great idea as well.
