I plan on putting flip flops, cosmetic bag, maybe cheap makeup, lotion from Bath and Body Works.

Re: What would you like to get...
I think that's tough. To be honest, I think you really need to think of what your BMs like. If I was getting a tote I would use it as a beach bag and only that (as long as it was big enough) otherwise I'm not using it. Filled in it, I'd like flip flops, B&BW lotions and shower gels, a poof, chapstick, lip gloss. I like stuff like that.

No, I actually think that personalizing the contents would be the way to go. One of my BMs is a product whuah so I will get her lotions and stuff. Another hates that stuff but would seriously die if I filled her bag with scrapbooking supplies.
I figure they are going to a lot of trouble for me, I can spend some extra time planning their gifts.

Instead of the pedicure set I was just thinking like a gift certificate to get their nails done for the day of

I got to somewhat cheat on my BM gifts, a good friend of mine makes jewelry, so I designed necklaces for them, and I might add a gift certificate to a spa

Re: What would you like to get...
Im doing with totes with flip flops, sweatpants and zip up hoodie in their dress colors, cosmetic bags, makeup... My MOH is getting the same thing AND a gift cert. to get a massage at the spa.... With me
Oh yea and my FG is my daughter so I have no idea what I am getting her... LOL... Anything she wants really, but we are thinking of a way to incorporate her in our ceremony as well since we are becoming a family... (its OUR daughter together but obviously I dont have the same last name as them) so we want her to be a real special part of it... I have to talk to the rev about that....

yeah think about your BMs
i know i wouldnt want B&B lotions.. i get them all the time for xmas and etc.. and i have too many to even use! i through them out
maybe flip flops cute umbrella turbie twist (LOOOOOVE THESE!!!) maybe personalized frames with something about being a friend and bridesmaid with weddind date (then later send them a pic for it)

My mom keeps saying to get frames and I was like noooo...but then I realized that my photo package comes with 8x10's for all my BM...so the frame is actually perfect

this is just me.. those are really nice but people use what they like.. and most of those things i would think that your BMs have already in the brands / colors that they like. these arent things that I would want.. i get these things as gifts from my students and i throw them out because i have my own ones that i like or i have enough of them at home
