I decided to get my bridesmaids an additional gift since my FH spent a little more on the guys. I already got them a pocketbook and jewelry for the day. These are some examples (not the exact things) Please vote.
Picture Frame:
Something cool!
Picture Album:
Maybe with a picture frame front. Something cool.
Trinket Box:

Compact:

Definitely the compact in the case. Everything else looks way too trinkety for my taste.

There are three examples of trinket boxes I'm not sure what kind yet... those pics are just for ideas.

Got it! Then I like the 2nd trinket box or the last compact.

that's a tough one Julie...Photo frames/boxes are keepsakes. They will always be used. Not everyone uses a jewelry/trinket box or a compact. I'm a picture person and personally, would like a frame or album. Especially if it was started or filled with pics from times with that particular BM.

I definitly think an album is the most useful gift. Maybe you could even give them a disposable camera w/ it, so they can have their own memories of the day!

I think the compact is nice.

OK I am going to get this from Lillian Vernon:

Since it is only $5.98 I decided I am also going to get them a picture frame Thanks for all your help!

I vote for the compact or trinket box. My only issue is that if you go with sterling silver for either, keep in mind these things eventually tarnish. I had gotten a beautiful silver compact, and it got so tarnished so quickly, its a pain in the butt. JMO!

Good luck and have fun this weekend! We can't wait to see pictures!
