Should you get your BP the same gift??

Should you get your BP the same gift??

All my BMs are very high maintenance picky girls. I doubt there is anything they would all like.

What are you giving your BP?

We used to give one another gifts as children but nowadays we usually go out to a nice dinner or show. Gift exchanging stopped after college

I'm thinking of getting them a spa gift certificate or maybe a gift certificate to Sephora. Is that too impersonal?

I was thinking spa certificates but I have two BMs from OOT and I don't know about spas in their area.

I am thinking of gift certificates or voucher for a Broadway show or something. I have two OOT BM's so I don't know if I was going to get them the same thing. My other thought was to do something when we are all in Vegas like a spa thing or something but it is soooo expensive.

Do you know all of your girls well? For picky girls, i would stay away from jewlery and the typical BM items because 9 out of 10, they will never even use them. As far as the spa, if you know that they wwill definetly use them, then go that route. Just make sure they can use them towards treatmments of thir choice. If thats not possible I would customize their gifts.

If you know what they are into, incorporate that. For instance, my MOH is my best friend and I know her in and out, but she is VERY picky about her jewlery. She told me she would wear anything I chose, but I know she already has her 'daily' stuff, so I decided to do things she likes.

She LOVES to cook, so I am looking into getting her a gift certificate for a gourmet cooking class, as well as a copy of the new cookbook she has been salivating over. I bought a new spatula and I am putting it into a customized makeup bag with our photos on it-she's always carting her makeup bag around and its seen better days :)

If you know one of your girls is girly for example and likes to be pampered, you could do the spa route or buy her the items you know she uses; her favorite bath salts, lotions, perfume... Get her a customized makeup bag, etc.


BTW, I LOVE Sephora, but if you do that GC, I would also give them a little something to go with it-might take some scouting but find out their favorite lotion or lip gloss brand and throw that in there as well-they can use it the day of the wedding and after and it personalizes it a bit more.

Actually, I think those are great ideas!
