Bridal Attendant Gift Ideas

It’s customary for brides-to-be to celebrate their bridal party by giving her wedding attendants gifts.  These gifts are an expression of gratitude for their commitment to standing with them on the wedding day.  Below are two gift suggestions for your bridal attendants.

1.  Toiletry Bag.  Purchase a toiletry bag for cosmetics and toiletries.  You can purchase the bag based on your attendants’ personal styles.  If you have a friend who loves trendy items, a leopard print bag might be just right for her.  Blue and white pin stripes or a plain bag might be more appropriate for a conservative friend. 

Once you’ve selected the bag, fill it with useful items:  emory boards, clear nail polish, travel-sized toothpaste, soap, and toothpaste containers.  Also, include miniature mouthwash, a comb and a brush.  Just think of all the items you use when you travel and put them in the travel bag.

2.  Pictures and frames.  If you have relationships with the women in your party, you probably have pictures of you with the individual women.  Gather these pictures and make copies of them.  Then go shopping.  Find the perfect picture frame for these pictures.  When shopping, think of your attendants’ personalities and home décor.  Purchase picture frames that they would like to own or would purchase for themselves.  You want them to be able to use the frames and replace the picture if they choose.

I’m sure your attendants will love receiving either of these gifts.  Keep in mind that these gifts can be given with other gifts, too.
