brides maids gifts and bridal shower favors

Any suggestions?

Re: brides maids gifts and bridal shower favors

A nice BM gift would be to get them matching jewelry to wear for the wedding...
Bridal shower favors? I had mini wedding cake candles. They were really cute and only $1 each!

I bought the Girls Jewelry to wear with their BM dress (not shown). Also, I typed out the Text on MY PC and printed it on Iron ON paper. I bought the panties at Century 21 for about $2 each. I bought the Maid of HOnor shown their at C21 for only $2.00. I bought the fleece blankets for only $20. Oh yeah, I also got them Personalize CD's Each with a song that reminded me of them. The "NEW YOrk" is a CD holder. (Most of my Girls were from OUt of State). I also bought them Estee Lauder Makeup. I was going to place it in a basket but I just went ahead and placed them in a Gift bag.

ETA:

I went with a "I love NY" Theme and gave our OOT guests and BM's... I love NY T-shirts (from China town), I Love NY key chains, and maps of manhattan/subway.

Since our families are both baseball fans....we got our ring bearers (my 2 nephews) personalized baseball. I couldn't find the pictures but I did find the website.

Also, if the bestman is a baseball fan, they have personalized bats.

I did a bunch of items in a tote bag.


Necklace, (the circle pendant), a compact mirror, makeup bag, Lancome lip gloss..candles, etc.

Here is also a great idea: Baguettes
Custome made wristlet with picture
or
Customized wristlet



I got one for my sister,my matron of honor. On back was a picture of the two of us when we were younger.

For my shower, I got my bridesmaids a set of four dessert plates. I tried to match each plate theme with the personality of the bridesmaid. For example, one set of dishes was a shoe theme. I knew one of my bm's loved shoes, so gave that set to her.

For my rehearsal dinner, I got my sister (MOH) a necklace from Tiffany. I also gave her a Ralph Lauren picture frame that she wanted. She ended up putting a picture of us in it. Lastly, earrings that I gave the rest of the bridal party.

For one of my bm's (was pratically my MOH as well) I got her a Tiffany bracelet. I also gave her what I got the rest of the girls (see below).

For the rest of the girls, I got them earrings, a pottery barn jewelery box, and shawls to go with their dresses.

I gave my MOH a large COACH bag, and my bridesmaids got COACH wristlets. It was something different (at least I thought back then - I've heard of many brides giving these out now) and I knew everyone would love it!!!
