A wedding is a special time for the bride and groom as well as their families and friends. For the bride, the bridesmaids are typically her most special family members and friends.
As a token of her appreciation for all that they have done to make the day memorable, the bride should plan to give each of her bridesmaids something special, something unique, sometimes personal. The bridesmaid gifts are typically given at a rehearsal dinner before the wedding takes place.
Gifts can be as innovative as one wants to be and gift creations such as these will endure and endear. Women adore jewelry and a bridesmaid would love to get earrings, bracelets or a necklace as a gift. Watches, and especially diamonds, also never fail to enamor as a girl*s best friend. These types of gifts can get expensive and seem impersonal.

1. Colored bath salts or aromatherapy candles 每 These items make great gifts for bridesmaids. They can be selected based on the personality and preferences of the bridesmaids. Consider salts or candles that match the colors used for the wedding and place them up in a jar or wrap them with a luxurious bow.
2. Cookie cutters or a baking/serving dish 每 Why not give a more practical gift that won*t get tossed in a drawer and never used again. Give this gift more personality by including a small binder of your favorite recipes.
3. Custom CDs 每 Take a trip down memory lane by giving each bridesmaid a customized CD filled with their favorite songs, music from the wedding or music that evokes certain memories or important events. The cases can be personalized with their names and wedding date.
4. Decorated shoe-box filled with memorabilia: pictures, ticket stubs, notes and letters 每 A box full of treasured items would certainly let each bridesmaid know how meaningful their friendship has become. Scan pictures and other items and print out copies if you don*t want to part with the originals.
5. Framed picture 每 While a nice decorative frame is often an appreciated gift, what makes this gift so special is the picture inside. Select a picture of the two of you from some time in their lives, whether it is a recent picture or one from childhood. It could even be from the place where you met.
6. Journal 每 Most bookstores or department stores carry a variety of elegant journal books. Why not write a note of appreciation to each bridesmaid on the first page of each book, along with the date of the wedding. A bride might even want to consider including a nice bookmark.
7. Magazine subscription 每 It*s the gift that keeps on giving. This type of gift would show that you recognize the interests of each bridesmaid.
8. Monogrammed stationary or robes 每 The best way to make sure your bridesmaids will love their gifts is to personalize them. Monogramming is an easy way to add style and personality to otherwise ordinary items.
9. Pair of champagne glasses and a bottle of champagne 每 Now that you have tied the knot, why not let your bridesmaids know that it*s time for them to get romantic. For those who are already married, let them know that romance is in the air.
10. Personalized tote bags 每 If you decide to go the practical route, tote bags and purses might be the gift for your bridesmaids. Women can always use a new bag or purse.
