My bridesmaids recently ordered their dresses and they came in in literally two weeks! I was so excited, so I picked them up for all of my girls because I was going for the OOT girls anyway. The dresses were in plastic bags, which was disappointing to me, especially because my wedding is 11 months away, and I was not expecting them to come in so early!! So I purchased gown bags online and was going to monogram them, but I have decided to make wedding hangers with bridesmaid, MOH, etc. and include them with the gowns in the gown bags! My mother is helping me because she is beyond crafty, and it will be fun for us to do together! Just wanted to share because I am super excited and am counting down the days until she is back from vacation lol!!
What is everyone else doing for their BM gifts?

I'm planning on getting them their day of jewelry. I'm also going to get them personalized t-shirts that says Bridesmaid 2013 with their names on it. I'm probably going to try to get them something else but I'm not sure yet what it will be.

I got them on amazon. Super easy! The ones I got are 72' long which is amazing because one of my girls is 5'11' so her dress is obviously long...

Maybe DOJ, footzy rolls (roll up ballet flats), tshirts with their titles on it and prob lil things like lip gloss and such. I am also buying them all the pins that I want them to wear on their dresses.

I really like that idea - I was also thinking of getting the hangers but not crafty so was going to get them on etsy with the wire writing of their titles. For the main gifts, I found really nice necklaces with birthday gemstones and a circle with their name initial. I will probably give them little things like a bridesmaid goodie bag with things they may need for the wedding. Maybe flip-flops.

I did personalized canvas bags, DOJ, and still need to get their hangers and tumblers (for the morning of the wedding so nothing spills on them!)

I am paying for them to get their make up done for my wedding, a hanger with their names on it and a little make up bag with lip gloss and other toiletries.

that's a great idea to pay for their makeup! I wish I could do it but I have 7 bridesmaids & it will be too pricy

I got them matching jewelry for their dresses and I want to get something else too, especially beacause they are all going away for my bachelorette party so I think I am going to pay for half of their make up. I have ten bridesmaids so it gets expensive. Otherwise I am going to get them all MAC eyeshadows and clear lipgloss.

I like the Mac eyeshadow & lipgloss idea! And they can use the lipgloss throughout the night.
