Have
you been a bridesmaid in a lot of your friends’ weddings?
If so, you have probably received many variations of the same gifts
from each of them. This isn’t a slight on your relationship
or the part that you played in a wedding, the fact is that many brides
don’t have the energy to really think about giving a unique bridesmaid
gift so they stick with what they know or what bridal magazines or sales
people suggest to them when they are shopping. If you would like
to avoid giving your friends the variation of things that they may already
have, you can. As a bride you simply need to think outside of
the box a little bit.
To give a unique bridesmaid gift you need to think about your bridesmaids.
You can create something unique for each of them or you can get them
all the same thing, it’s really up to you. Coming up with
what you will give is really the important part of the process.
It’s a good idea to think about all of your bridesmaids and the
relationship that you share with them, because when you reflect on this
it is often easier to come up with a unique bridesmaid gift.
Some great options may include references to the past such as a favorite
song. If you all share a favorite song or a memory linked with
a song, why not try to get all of your bridesmaids an autographed copy
of the CD that the song is on? If you have had a lot of great
times together you could always create a DVD slide show that include
pictures with the song playing in the background. This would be
a unique bridesmaid gift and much more appreciated than the typical
jewelry box, charm bracelet, or
picture frame.
If there is something that you make such as jewelry, why not create
a unique bridesmaid gift for all of your friends? You can create
something that is the same or similar for each of them to wear during
the wedding or you can create something totally unique for each of them
to wear in the future. You could even put them in the typical
jewelry box, which would allow you
to give a unique bridesmaid gift that also has a personal touch.
When you want to give a gift you simply need to spend a little bit more
time thinking about the women in your life. When you think about
the times that you have shared, great memories, and shared interests
or hobbies, giving a unique bridesmaids gift suddenly becomes so easy.
Spend just a little bit of time on it and you’ll surely be able
to give some great gifts!
