Gifts for the Bridesmaids:Break the Cliche

It’s your big day and your girls are there for you. Since you've probably already tormented them with a bridesmaid’s dress with shoulder pads that would make a linebacker envious, show your appreciation with a meaningful gift.

Finding gifts for the bridesmaids is simple and can be more fun or meaningful than the bland key chain or cliche strand of pearls. Try a custom-made clutch that matches their dress, yet has enough diversity to be touted about with on other outings. Why not create a custom necklace that they can cherish? What girl doesn't love a little pampering? Hand crafted all-natural soaps and bath are something she can relax and enjoy.

You can also appeal to each lady’s individual interests. Is she a horror movie aficionado? A box set of the classic Universal Monsters. Artsy? How about an introductory pottery class or an evening to enjoy painting and her favorite wine at a local establishment.

There is also the road of food and drink. A coffee connoisseur would appreciate a bag of gourmet coffee with a new mug. Does she like to cook? Try a cute apron and a gift certificate to a gourmet grocery store. For a night to herself, a basket with a nice bottle of wine and gourmet chocolates.

Finding the perfect gift to say “thank you for being here and handling my inner Bridalveil will show your bridesmaids your appreciation for them. Nix the cliche and embrace the availability and expanse of favors that you can bestow.
