Fun and Creative Bridesmaids Gifts

Your bridesmaids give a lot to stand beside you in your wedding. They purchase the dress, throw and attend a bachelorette party, and give up a weekend to watch you say "I Do." It is common practice to give your bridesmaids a gift as a token of your appreciation. Here are a few creative and fun ideas of gifts you can give your best girlfriends.



Personalized Robes
These robes are perfect for when all the girls are together getting their hair and make-up done for the big day. These robes from Embroidery by Melissa on Etsy can be personalized with their initials on the front, or something on the back, such as their name or "bridesmaid." They also come in a variety of different colours and are only about $30 per robe.


Customized Hangers
These hangers are ADORABLE! What a great way to distinguish whose dress is whose, and are perfect for photo opportunities. White Diamond Affairs on Etsy does a great job with the wire name and adds a beautiful touch with the shoe and bow at the top. These hangers are completely handmade and made to order. These are definitely a creative gift.


Clutch Purse
Adorable little gift for your bridesmaids that can be used on the day of the wedding. You can get many different colours and patterns on Etsy to match your décor. I love these burlap ones by hoganfe which are perfect for a rustic vineyard wedding. 


Personalized Glassware
There are a few different options available online, all of which are charming and totally customized.

SAM Designs hand paints glassware for your bridal party. These unique glasses can be completely customized - style and colour of dress, flowers, names, dates, or anything else you want. These glasses can actually be used and are hand-wash safe!


Another option is etched glass. These glasses from Scissor Mill have a more crisp and clean look to them, although they are not as customizable. However, if you are looking to give a similar gift to both bridesmaids and groomsmen, this would be a great option.



Jewelry
One of the most common options, but still amazing, is a piece of jewelry - be it a ring, necklace or bracelet. I love jewelry as an option because it can be used over and over again. And let's face it, who doesn't love a new necklace? I love the ones by Blue Sunflowers on Etsy. There are a few different colour options for the stones, and the personalization with the initial is definitely a hot trend right now.


I also love the little note that comes along with this gold infinity necklace from Otis B Jewelry


If you choose to do jewelry, finish the gift off by placing it in a cute little box, like this one from Crazy Paper Love! Adorable and inexpensive, this definitely adds the finishing touch to your gift.




What is your favourite bridesmaid gift?
