Can i get some Unique bridal shower gift ideas?

I am a BM in my best friend's wedding, and i wanted to get her something different. (not from registry)

I can't think of anything!! she got me my cake topper for my wedding, and i thought that was an incredible gift.

Do they need a camera? My bridal party bought us a digital camera and printer.

I was a little DIY 'er
and made the bride, a "BRIDE" tank for the day of wedding.

You can also maybe get some personalized things, a HM bag...add some stuff to it, towels etc.

I got a book for my shower it was from hallmark, its a pre-made scrap book that you just put the pics into, its really awesome!

they other idea that I love, is buying them a "trip" for their HM... like dinner at a restaurant or an excursion if they go on a cruise, or couples massages at the resort, something they didn't book already. you can book it in advance and make a gift certificate to give her the day of (or I can help you, just email me the info) Its nice because its for BOTH of them!

I'm not sure how much you want to spend but what about a BBQ? Like a Weber grill? I also liked that my BM paid for 3 of our excursions on our HM. It was awesome.

Re: Can i get some Unique bridal shower gift ideas?

One of my favorite gifts was that my DH's grandmother bought us our Nativity for Christmas. She bought us the Precious Moments mini-Nativity. I love it! We've added so many pieces to it over the years.

I also like the paying for excursions on their honeymoon as well. I've done that for a Bride & Groom too.

My BF, DH and her DH used to go to this great Turkish restaurant and would devour the hummus...so with her food processor (on registry), I bought the ingredients to hummus and a turkish cookbook.

we also gave them a GC to their honeymoon hotel for room service.


another good friend's registry was empty...so I bought 4 really nice bottles of wine and labelled them: first night, first fight, first holiday, first anniversary. - with a nice wine holder

You should check personalizationmall.com or personalcreations.com. They have some really cute things under anniversary/wedding. The throw with their names and wedding date is a nice idea. If u order from one of those sites, let me know if you need a code for 20% off. I have one since I just ordered from them.
