Bridesmaid Gifts

giftbags.jpgThat’s right -- as the bride, you’re not only GETTING gifts, you’re GIVING them too. As appreciation to your bridesmaids and maid/matron of honour, a symbol of your love and thanks is appropriate. From the functional (paying for their hair styling and makeup on the wedding day) to the sentimental (hand-made ceramic “wish boxes”) to the personalized (baskets of items that “reflected their hobbies, interests and favorites”), it’s your way of saying ‘thank you’ and ‘I love you for being a part of my most beautiful day.’ It’s actually my favourite part of the wedding planning because giving IS really better than receiving, especially when the giving says so much.

PS. Since men don’t often think of these things, it’s your pre-wifely duty to remind your guy that he should get gifts for his best man and the ushers. You can split the effort for the ring bearer and flower girl.

PPS. It’s likely, though, that you’ll be doing the shopping for ALL of them. Get used to it.
