Need help on a BM gift

Ok so I got a whole slew of things for my BM's. Here's the list:

Tote bag
Makeup brush kit - BM's only
Lip gloss kit - BM's only
Bath & body kit - MOH's only
Pashmina
Totes ballet slippers
DOJ necklace
DOJ earrings also - for MOH's and FSIL only
Lolita wine glasses
Double-sided picture frame (I'm putting an old pic of me with each BM on one side and leaving the other blank for their choice of wedding pic)
Brooch for their dress
Jewelry pouch

Now the situation.... as you see, I bought my MOH's and FSIL a little something extra, because well they're my sisters and FSIL. But I have one BM who has gone ABOVE AND BEYOND her duties as a BM for this wedding and I can't thank her enough. She's my bff of over 20 years, and if it weren't for my sisters, she's probably be my MOH. H e l l as of last night I'm kicking myself in the a$$ for not making her my MOH in the first place.

I've decided I want to get her something extra. Something different than the extra things for my MOH's and FSIL, and something more than the rest of the BM's. She deserves it. I would obviously give it to her on the side, and make her swear on her life not to tell anyone else, but I need to do this.

So what else can I get her????

That's a good question, and I don't know, lol. I guess it depends on the gift.

Hmmm...maybe perfume, an eyeshadow pallette (to go with the brushes you got), a mani/pedi gift card, a best friends charm (if she wears charm bracelet or necklace), a monogram robe (personalization mall has them), a jewelry box? Sephora, personalization mall, and things remembered have fun things.

If your having your party get their hair and/or makeup done for the day, you could pay for one (or both) of those services. It be a nice something extra, you could write it in a card to give her that morning or something.

I def agree something along these lines. maybe a signature piece from tiffanys along w/a note acknowledging all that she has done for you and FH.

Re: Need help on a BM gift

if shes been your friend for over 20 years, im sure you have tons of pics together? maybe you could make an album online like through shutterfly or kodak gallery for her with pictures throughout the years. and maybe something sentimental- engraved locket or jewelry box or picture frame or something from things remembered?
