Just Said Yes October 2021

Destination wedding, No Bridesmaids, i want to do something special for the 20 gals coming.....

Hello everyone,

We are having a destination wedding. More people said yes than we anticipated which is completely fine. We are over the moon excited 40 of our closest friends and Fam will be there despite the current climate. We have made the entire week a breeze for our guests with every day planned and paid for if they want to participate.

When our guests arrive I will have custom bags for each guest or 1 bag for the couple, however each person gets a personalized Yetti tumbler, a beach towel that's been monogrammed with their name and our wedding date, sunscreen, a bottle of local tequila, Mexican chocolate and a few other items that I feel necessary.

My question is, is there something more I could do for the gals coming? 15 out of 21 of them are my close girlfriends whom I love and adore and I am feeling called to do something special for them.

I have rented out a salon/spa the morning of the wedding and I was thinking that I should just pick up the entire tab but I don't always think money or covering the cost is special. Do you ladies have any thoughts on what I could do?

Thank you in advance for you help!!

L

    Hmm I’m a little stumped! You’re already doing so much! I think the spa idea for the morning of is lovely. Agreed that spending money isn’t always special but I can’t think of a gift that would be right here.
    What about something before the trip? A girls night out that you cover to thank everyone for going the extra mile?

    OK first of all, can I just say this wedding sounds like SO MUCH FUN!! You have given so much thought and consideration into your guests’ experience! I honestly don’t feel you need to do anything more for the girls attending. You have already created an incredibly memorable experience for them! That being said, if you just absolutely have to do something more, the spa day sounds like a fun bonding experience. If you wanted something more personal (instead of just picking up the tab for something), you could purchase each of them a necklace that is somehow individualized- like maybe their birthstone or zodiac sign or their names. It’s something personal that will make them think of you and your wedding every time they wear it in the future.

    That's a beautiful idea from the PP. A necklace or earrings or bracelet (could be different depending on the girl) would certainly be something they could treasure forever. I am sure they wouldn't be expecting anything though so anything you do for them and give them will be special.
