Picked up BRIDESMAIDS GIFTS(pics incl)!!! YAY!!! Please HELP!!!

So Happy!!! Long day, but at the end of it I think i finally got what i wanted. I found these adorable robes on americaneagleoutfitters.com, and wanted to go see them in person. I love them, but somehow the wrong robe ended up getting ordered and it was a huge mess. They couldn't turn the order aroudn and it is being shipped straight to the woman embroidering it, so that is quiet annoying!!! Now she has to reject that one and accept the other which contains the right robes shown in pictures. I ended up getting them to match the store price of $14.95. I am going to get them embroidered either on the pocket or on the left side. I attached pics for the two font types, what does everyone think? Which font is best? (also i like bridal path and prestige script on this website: http://www.embroideredclothes.com/fonts.html) Also my wedding color is different shades of orange, so what shade do you gusy like for the embroidery? Dark or peachish? How do you like the idea with the robe in general?

Thanks, you guys are awesome, looking forward to being on this more and more :)

I like the second font-the one that is red, I would go with the peach for the embroidery, only b/c I think its more 'girlish' then the green

I have thought about doing personalized robes myself, I definately would say the second font.

Thank you guys so much for your advice. It seems that the second writing is taking the cake by far. I love that one too, I am also still wondering abotu the two styles on the website that I gave, 'bridal path' and 'prestige style.' Which do you guys like the most? Also with that color robe, kind of an off white, what color embroidery do you think more on the light peach side or dark orange?

Thanks again for all your help!

I love the robe idea! very cute! and I definitely think the light peach would be a better color b/c it's more feminine.

Very cute! I like the 2nd font better. Definitely go for a peach~ish color, I think it's more feminine. The robe is such a great idea. I'd totally use it if someone gave it to me!

Love this idea! I was thinking about doing Sating Robes, but think terricloth are much more practical! Anyway...I like the second font and would do dark orange for the embroided color!

PS = where are you getting them embroided and how much does that cost! I might have to do this too! I think I am also going to get a necklace and a gift card for their hair or makeup

BRIDESMAIDS JEWELRY PICS, DO YOU GUYS LIKE?

I am actually getting them engraved by a local lady taht works out of her home in California that I found on project wedding. My wedding will be in California, so that worked out a little better for me and she is sooooo cheap. What i suggest is if you are ordering online and you are considering using her even though she is in cali, you should have it shipped directly to her and then she will only charge you shipping to send back your way. She has every imaginable text and color and has been a doll to work with. Let me know if you want her info.

Also, i got my bridesmaids jewelry as well from a great little vendor in new york. www.heartbeadnyc.com
I have attached a picture, real pearls, simple and just perfect. Only 22 per set! What do you think?

Thanks for your input,
Katya
