Ideas on Bridesmaid gifts

[Leah76]

I really don't want to go down the route of buying jewellery for my bridesmaids (ages 22, 12, and 7)

wanted something a bit more personal

any thoughts?

How about the underwear for under their outfits? You can get something pretty and funky that'll make then smile each time they wear it and remeber the fun they will have had at the wedding
My girls had baby blue thongs trimmed with diamante on the back (you know the ones) and that was my something blue!
Obviously its not the best plan for the little ones but I'm sure 22 would love the idea!
The little one could have a bear made up from one of the factories and you could have a matching dress on it??
OR... i love this idea but they were out of stock when i tried to order- what about a wish pearl? You get a tin with an oyster in it and "give birth" to your own pearl so to speak, it comes with a piece of jewelery to show it off but is really special- not just jewellery

Hi I am thinking along the lines of what many of my wedding clients have done for their bridesmaids. Many of them have bought gift vouchers from the salon to treat them to a nice facial or manicure or left the voucher with an amount so the bridesmaid can choose their own treatment. These vouchers were greatly apreciated by the bridesmaids as it perhaps would be something they maynot treat themsleves too and its a luxury gift. Or what about a photo fame with a picture of you all for them to keep forever. A really sweet idea that a friend did for me when she got married was she got pictures of us when we were younger all together as we were a group of freinds even then and still are which is great. Then she put that in a frame with a more recent picture of us all. It was such a nice thought and made us laugh to see how much we had all changed. Sort of marked an end in an era and a begining of a new one with the first one of our friends from the group getting married!! She also got us our jewellery for the day to go with it and actually I really liked it and still wear it now. Perhaps you could still get the jewellery but do something like the suggestion above. Oh and I also think the under garments idea is a good one as every girl likes new underware especially if its to wear under a nice new bridesmaids dress.
