    Give at rehearsal, also up to you - I'm not doing either. Make sure its something they are likely to use again.

    I have neither. I let them wear whatever they wanted. Most people never wear them again after the wedding and they are too expensive to be thrown away.
    However, any gifts can be given at your bridal luncheon or at the rehearsal.

    I always prefer pajamas over a robe. With a robe, you still have to find something to wear under it that won’t be obvious. Pajamas you can just wear that and not worry about flashing everyone.

    I'm doing tanks since we'll be getting ready at the venue and it will be hot. The tanks have a loose neck so I'm not worried about messing up hair or makeup. If I had to pick between robes or pjs, I'd definitely choose pjs. Robes are normally too short and uncomfortable to walk around in around other people, in my opinion.
    I plan to invite all my bridesmaids to my hotel room after the rehearsal dinner to give them their gifts.

    If I had to choose between pjs or robes, I’d choose a pj set with a button down top - less revealing, more comfortable and won’t mess up hair/makeup.

    I agree with others that if I had to choose, I'd choose the pj's, but I honestly am not a fan of this trend. My girls just wore whatever they wanted and the getting ready pictures were cute and everyone was comfortable. Also, if it's anything you want them to wear the day of, I would give it to them the day before, during or after the rehearsal.

    I'd do PJs over robes and give to them at the rehearsal dinner. I'm doing something a little different, I'm going to give all my girls flannels to wear. Not matching, they'll all be different. I know that every one of them will re-wear the flannels so I figured that was a better way to keep everyone kind of matching but also give something they'll use again. I think PJs are comfier though!

    I don't really love this trend, so it's not something I did, but if I had to choose, definitely PJs (button up) because you don't want people worried about flashing others/figuring out what to wear underneath so their hair and makeup don't get messed up. If you want to have them wear them getting ready, I would either give them to them before the rehearsal dinner sometime (like several days/a week ahead) or make sure that I washed them before I gave them to the ladies. Some people (my husband among them) won't wear *anything* that hasn't been washed first.

    I did PJs! They were super cute and I know at least six of my girls have worn them again. Plus, I went with a seller on Etsy who made the shorts a custom length for everyone’s heights so no one was overexposed!

    We did satin button up pj sets, and I gave them to my girls the morning of (when they showed up for hair and makeup). The rehearsal is another great time to give them their getting ready attire. I definitely prefer pjs because they're less revealing and more likely to be worn again

    Agree with this! I also feel like PJs are more likely to get used/reworn compared to a robe.

    I'm doing robes and will probably give them to them the night before at the rehearsal dinner. That way no one has a chance to misplace them or anything
