Re: What do you get.....................

Typical gifts that I'm thinking of for my MOH and BMs is jewelery to match their dresses, or a wrap/shurg/shawl since my wedding is in March. You can also do spa treatments, pay for their hair or makeup.

I'm going to get FH a small gift, nothing too expensive.

Re: What do you get.....................

Im going with jewelry but that's easy since my BMs and MOH are immediate family. Im not going crazy but something nice and as for FH isn't marrying me enough of a gift Just kidding!! I haven't deceided what to do there yet.

Re: What do you get.....................

I havent decided what I would be getting BM's and MOH. Still too early for me to make that decision. Things Remembered is always a good place to get something at.
As for my FH, Yes I am getting him a gift and it was a promise I made to him while dating.
He has a fascination with watches and like tradition, he gets one for every holiday/occasion but for the wedding he wants a little more expensive watch. I am going to make that happen and put a nice inscripture on the back to show him how much I love him.
Pricey, yea..a little bit..but it what he always wanted and something that will make him happy. As if marrying ME isnt enough!

I am getting FH a watch that he wants...He is a watch nut & hasn't bought one in about 3 years because we have been saving...Also, I have some nice outfits for the HM!

Re: What do you get.....................

FH and I were discussing this last night. We don't really want to get each other gifts. We feel that the wedding and honeymoon are our gifts to each other. The other thing we toyed with was setting a limit and getting a gift in the limit. But this may not work either. So as of right now I think that FH and I are not getting gifts.

As for MOH and BM, I have no clue. I was thinking gift certificates to a spa or jewelry.

Re: What do you get.....................

I am thinking a couple of things for my attendants:

1. For the girls maybe mini coach bags or something from there.
2. Spa treatment or spa baskets from winecountrygiftbaskets.com. They have some wonderful stuff on there.
3. For the guys i will let my FH figure that out.
4. For FH and unbelievable honeymoon night that he wont forget!!!

Re: What do you get.....................

Im pretty sure that Im gonna pay for my girls hair to get done....and prob get them all jewlery..Like a necklace and earring set...

Macy's always has beautiful jewlery sets...(all CZ stuff) The Atias flea market in Sayville has 2 or 3 both specifically for wedding jewlery and tiaras and stuff... I havent really looked but Im sure they are reasonable prices

As far as FH... i havent even thought about it yet... nothing to $$$$

Re: What do you get.....................

I'm with you that I don't want to get my BM's cheesy jewelery...I'll probably get them each something that suits their personalities (they are all so different)...
as far as a gift for FH...not sure...we're giving each other this wedding and HM...plus a new place to live...I think the savings accounts are going to be dry...

Re: What do you get.....................

next christmas ill go to tanger outlet with my 20% off coupon from coach and buy them all coach bags

moh is my sis so i will get her a more special one

i may get coach makeup bags and fill them with goodies from the cosmetics outlet and maybe a pair of earrings to wear with the bm dress.

Re: What do you get.....................

I also like the idea of getting them something personal. I saw a cute jewlery box at Pottery Barn that you can get their initials put on.

Re: What do you get.....................

im going to make my BMs jewelry...

I have been slowly putting my stuff online if anyone wants to see, just let me know!!

Re: What do you get.....................

I'm probably getting them either jewelry or a coach bag (from an outlet). As for FH, I'll probably get him something...I think he was hinting around for a bowling ball

Re: What do you get.....................

All such great ideas! i may have to shop around for some jewlery sets (necklace & earrings) & maybe put the gift into a cute jewlery box or something personalized for each person......

WOW alot of our FH's have the same fedish about watches hahahaha! Every bday he wants a new one. They never get old for him, guess it's like a girl getting diamonds!
