Wedding SZN: Bridal Party Gift Ideas
Wedding season is here! The big day is fast approaching, and all that planning and preparation will soon come together in what is sure to be a day you'll never forget for the rest of your life. It's nice to spare a thought for all the people in your life that have selflessly given up their time to help you reach this point. A wedding may be for the blissfully happy couple, but it's great to acknowledge all those family members and friends that made it possible with a thoughtful gift.
What would a wedding be without all those people that have contributed along the way? There's the best man, bridesmaids, ushers, in-laws, friends, close family, and perhaps even a crazy cousin or two that have helped put together your bachelorette party, bachelor night, rehearsal dinner, and reception. If you want inspiration for the perfect way to say ‘thank you’ to your wedding supporters, run your eyes through this list of ideas!
Groomsmen
From selecting the best man based on who gives the most appropriate speech, to keeping those precious wedding rings safe, to just generally being there for the groom in every aspect through the process, a small thank you gift goes a long way. From a mini flask to a watch to remember the special day, everyday items made special with an engraving will go a long way - and get actual use post wedding as well.
Bridesmaids
Every bride needs a committed squad of bridesmaids and a maid of honor to help plan the big day.
While there are a ton of bridal party gifts to choose from, consider something that suits your entire entourage with something simple yet meaningful. A lovely necklace, a small gift card, or a home decor item that works with various styles are all great ways to go about it. Additionally, we love the idea of having flowers sent to the home when officially asking your friends and family to be a part of the wedding party. After all, fresh flowers are always appreciated.
Ushers
How about those ushers? They may not be the most important part of the wedding, but they've still turned up to lend a helping hand in greeting guests and directing them to their seats – and who else would you expect to help that one elderly guest that may need some help getting to the restroom?
You could show your ushers some love with a small gift basket, a friendship bracelet or even a coffee gift card, so they'll never forget your special day or that restroom kerfuffle.
Handy Helpers
You may not always get along with the in-laws, or you may be as close to them as your own parents; either way, they're very important to your betrothed, so you'll probably want to get off on the right foot with the parents-in-law. Honestly, what better way to do so than with a beautiful ornament or framed photo of you and your significant other that commemorates the union of your families?
You could even get the ornament or photo frame of choice engraved with your wedding date, marking the day that your two families were bound as one. Bonus points…
Other Important Guests in the Audience
Lots of people may have helped in little ways to make your day BIG. Maybe there was that friend who suggested a fantastic caterer or a great uncle that helped with transportation? You could show them your appreciation with a little something like a delightful bath or shower set – everyone appreciates bath and shower goodies (so long as they have a good hygiene routine, of course).
