Unique Bridesmaids Gift Ideas

Many brides and grooms welcome a wedding entourage into their big day to help and celebrate with them. Bridesmaids play an important role for the bride, they offer emotional support as well as practical help. We have lots of vintage style wedding gown consultations and our brides often bring their bridesmaids along. So it’s a lovely idea to get them a little thank you gift for all they do in the lead up to your wedding day and we’ve got some ideas below:

There are lots of things you can get that show how much you care that don’t break the budget. A beautiful necklace that means something to them, such as a hobby or their initial makes it personal. A wonderful handwritten note and a personalised print could be another option. So create something in a design package, print it and put it in a frame. This won’t break the bank and is both unique and personal. Especially if you have different ages of bridesmaids, getting something that each can treasure is really great idea.

Our real bride Jemma wore Eliza by Timeless Chic a fantastic halter neck tea length vintage style wedding gown. This is from our in house designer collection which you won’t find in any other UK boutiques.

Another amazing idea is putting together a care package with things they love or need. If you have a wedding theme then you could loosely base it around this with sweet treats, pamper items and things they can use in future.  Or create a scent that you and your bridesmaid can wear on your wedding day. Give them a bottle as a gift so that you can all recreate the fantastic memories you’ll have on the big day. Just knowing what your bridesmaids like will leave them feeling loved and cared for so it doesn’t always have to be a grand gesture. Keep it simple and show you care.

A really unique idea is to book up an experience for you and your maids once the wedding is over. This way you get to see your girls again and have fun, the perfect way to enjoy time together and reconnect. So think about fun activities such as cocktail making or a day out somewhere that you can all relax and enjoy.

Our bride wore the fantastic Molly Mae by True Bride which is a beautiful vintage style wedding gown. Designed to give a retro feel, these stunning short wedding dresses have a fun and flirty feel about them.

We have lots of amazing real weddings over on our blog and Pinterest boards so why not check them out. Also think about when you are going to give your bridesmaids their gifts, perhaps the evening before if you are all staying together.  Or when you get ready on the morning of you wedding, savour a few moments to have a glass of bubbles and cherish each other.
