Bridesmaid Gifts?

Kylee, on September 11, 2021 at 11:41 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 10
I need help with my bridesmaid boxes! The last thing I want to be is that brides that gives gifts that everyone is going to feel awaits throwing away. So I need opinions! I have 2 MOHs, 1 bridesmaid, and 2 junior bridesmaids. I’m planning on giving gold crystal earrings to wear the day of, monogrammed pajamas to wear while getting ready, a hanger with their name on it, an acrylic clutch to put their things in during the wedding, and then I’m debating on giving them the matching necklace to the earrings or a personalized necklace with their names on it. Which would you rather get as a BM? Is the rest good? Nothing will says bridesmaid on it so I’m hoping it’ll get used again.Bridesmaid Gifts? 1

    I think that sounds like a lot. I don't think you need to add anything else. This is just me, personally, but I would prefer if not everything was monogrammed with my name or initials. I just don't know if i'd be so inclined to carry around a bag with my name on it or pyjamas with my initials. Who else would be wearing my pj's? Smiley smile But you know your friends best so they might be more than happy with the initials etc. The pj's you picked are super cute!

    I think thats cute and more than enough! I like the matching necklace if they are going to wear day of, otherwise that personalized flower one is SO cute.

    I think you’ve done a great job of choosing things they will use both for the wedding and after. The earrings are beautiful! I would definitely go with the necklace to match over the name necklaces

    I agree with this. Even if it doesn’t say bridesmaid I don’t like things with my name or initials. But you know your crowd best and they will appreciate anything you give.

    To be honest, I wouldn't want any of that. I don't wear pajama shorts that short in public, I prefer to pick out my own jewelry, and I don't want my name or initials on anything. I especially wouldn't know what to do with the hanger after the wedding.

    Love the pajamas! The monogramming would be nice but not essential. If one thing had to go, I might say the clutch. I'm sure everyone will be bringing their own purses and switching things over just for the wedding might be a hassle.

    Agree with all of this. Love the PJs but would not want my name/initials. Would never use a clutch with my name on it...the rest just props for the wedding. Totally fine, nothing wrong with any of it, but definitely all things that'd go right to Goodwill etc following the wedding.

    The earrings are beautiful! I think, though, that you might be going a little overboard with the monogrammed stuff. The PJs don't need to be monogrammed; just make sure you have the right sizes. Clothes with names on them are a bit tacky, and they may feel less inclined to wear them. For the necklaces, maybe instead of having their names, put in artwork similar to that in the earrings.

    We all live in the south and were all in sororities so monograms are very much a big thing here. Hence the monograms on everything lol
