Bridesmaid gifts

[rainbowandglitter]

What would make really nice bridesmaid gifts that don't cost the earth?
My bridesmaids range in age from 12 to in heir 70s and I can't think of anything nice that I could get for all of them.

Bracelets /necklaces etc just wouldn't get worn.

Any ideas?

You dont necessarily have to get the same for them all, although its nice to. There is going to be very little that will suit both a 12 and 70 year old. So perhaps a personal gift, for what suits them, either a personalised item each or a gift, presented in a personalised tote bag.

Alternatively, Perhaps some nicely decorated personalised biscuits, a bottle of something (posh lemonade?).

Something for the day itself, so a hairpiece or bag, even if it never gets used again, it's a nice memento (?).

I agree, something different for each of them. Would the 12 year old treasure a keepsake but your bridesmaid in her 70s love time with you rather than a thing? Eg lunch together. At ours we had the photographer take pictures of the wedding party (eg the best man with his wife) and framed it so they had a nice professional photo of themselves all dressed up (and not with us in it!)

Traditionally you tended to get something to keep, but in reality it went to the back of the drawer never to see the light of day again, so the idea of a doing something gift is really nice.
What is your actual budget?
