Bridesmaid Gift Etiquette
Bridesmaids play a huge role in the wedding and should be thanked accordingly. There are many wonderful ways in which a bride can express her appreciation for her wedding party, but the most important is the bridesmaid gifts. In fact, no wedding would be complete without them. Take a moment to make sure you know the etiquette or bridesmaid gifts before you start shopping.
Bridesmaid Gifts Are Mandatory. Bridesmaid gifts are important and absolutely cannot be cut from your wedding budget. Skipping the bridesmaids gifts is in very poor taste, as your friends will go through a lot of trouble and often expense to be a part of your big day. As long as they are chosen thoughtfully, the gifts need not be extravagant. Affordable and beautiful, crystal wedding jewelry is a lovely choice for bridesmaid gifts.
Gifts Do Not Have To Be Identical. Often the bridesmaids will all have different tastes, and finding a gift that will appeal to all of them is a challenge. The great news is that you don't have to! It is perfectly acceptable to choose different wedding jewelry for each bridesmaid or even to give them totally different gifts. It's important to remember to keep the gift comparable in value when choosing different gifts for each bridesmaid.
The Maid of Honor Gets An Extra Special Gift. It is expected that the bride will spend a little more on her maid of honor. If every bridesmaid is getting a set of jewelry, the maid of honor could get an extra piece, such as a matching bracelet. For example, if you chose monogrammed garment bags for your bridesmaids, the maid of honor could recieve a matching cosmetic bag as well. When purchasing completely unique gifts for each bridesmaid, your maid of honor can simply recieve a grander gift.
Give Your Gifts At A Special Time. Give your gifts at a special time to make your gifts extra special.. Often, a bride will host a bridesmaid luncheon a few days before the wedding; this intimate event is a traditional time to give your bridesmaids their gifts. If you choose not to hold the luncheon, there are many other opportunities to give your bridesmaids their gifts, such as a spa day. The rehearsal dinner is a busy event and generally not the best time to give your bridesmaids their gifts-- try to give them during a special time shared by just the bride and bridesmaids.
Bridesmaids Gifts Should Last Forever. One of the reasons that wedding jewelry is so popular for bridesmaid presents is that it is a lasting memento of the event. Engraved silver is a popular bridesmaid gift for the same reason-- look for small items like compacts, picture frames, or jewelry boxes. Your bridesmaid gifts should be something with lasting value. Avoid anything with a limit, like a gift certificate or magazine subscription. Also stay away from very trendy items which will quickly lose their appeal. Keep these tips in mind and you can rest easy and know that your bridesmaids will simply adore their unique gifts.
