Posted by emily on December 20th, 2019

For a bride, sometimes the hardest thing to do is pick out the perfect gifts for her Maid of Honor and all her bridesmaids, considering they're most likely dear friends or family. No worries, there are many ideas of what to get your bridesmaids that are unique, personal, and something they will treasure for the rest of their lives.

First, think about each bridesmaid, her age, what she likes, and so on. This will help you in the long run in more ways than one. Does one of them enjoy art and another one enjoys traveling, while another one is really big into jewelry? No worries to our bride, there are many things out there if you just take the time to look!

A little gift to each of them could be a bridesmaid gift 7-Piece bridesmaid relief and spa kit. Being a bridesmaid can be hard work, since they're a big part of the wedding if they're a little older than fifteen or so. A little spa kit could be the perfect gift for each of them and you and the girls could have a spa day at a hotel with the kits! This is a perfect gift if you want to give each bridesmaid the same gift and keep things simple and uncomplicated.

Another smaller gift that you could give the bridesmaids is a picture frame with all of you in the middle. A group shot to remember the day of your wedding, or rather the last moments of frantic thoughts in the bride's room while she's getting ready and the bridesmaids are helping her. Later on in life this could prove to be a very amusing photo, or something that makes your heart melt every time you see it. There's no need to make it expensive, but each frame could be slightly different to add to a more personal flare. Maybe some home decorations on the sides, or just a different colored, or styled frame for each bridesmaid.

If you, the bride, are looking to have each bridesmaid have a different gift, expressing something about them, why not get one of them a personalized gift weekend tote bag? It's able to hold all the travelers needs, which is perfect for a bridesmaid who is always on the go. Also, the totes embroidery can be in black, medium pink, aqua, apple green, red, or lavender. So many choices so nearly any favorite color can be met! Candles are another good way to go, relaxing is a good key in life to stick by, so why not help your bridesmaids by getting them a soothing candle like a Friendship Candle with their initials monogrammed or a white terry cloth spa robe. Or maybe your friends and you enjoy taking pictures. A personalized photo album with silver heart would be ideal to have a book full of great memories.

For bridesmaids under the age of fifteen consider a small stationary set. When I was a young bridesmaid, I was given one of these along with the addresses of all the other younger bridesmaids, and we all kept in contact throughout the years. This is a great idea for cousins, the groom's sister, or best friend's sister, or any other special person that is part of the wedding party or helped you plan your wedding. Stationary could be picked out differently for each girl and her age group along with fancy colored pens and some stamps to send out the letters.

Getting the perfect bridesmaids gift, or gift for your Maid of Honor just takes a little time and a lot of patience. Knowing your bridesmaids helps a lot, so consider a few of their favorite things when deciding on a gift. Even the smallest of gifts will show you care and make them feel even more a part of the wedding than before.
