If you are looking for elegant, thoughtful presents for your bridesmaids to thank them for their help and support on your wedding day, look no further than our list of bridesmaids gifts. It’s full of presents that are a little bit of luxury, a little bit of pretty and a whole lot of “I love you!”
Custom Stationery
Luxurious stationery need not end with your invitations. Rifle Paper Co. does custom illustrations of your besties and prints them on notepads and calling cards. In this age of email, a handwritten thank you note of special paper can become a treasured momento. If a drawn-to-order illustration stretches the budget too much, there are also customizable template designs for a similar effect.

Comfort First
Get your ladies grooving at the reception in these Kate Spade “Cayman” ballet flats intead of flip flops, and have the added bonus of being a pretty gift long after the wedding, as well.
Put Together
Wristlets are a perennial choice for bridesmaids, so how about mixing it up and gifting a cosmetics bag, like this heart-print one from Coach, instead? Perfect for travel or in a purse, this chic little bag keeps all her cosmetics together and can be filled with cute little items like a Kate Spade compact mirror, rollerball perfume or coordinating nailpolish.
Wrapped Up
Robes are popular gifts for good reason: it does double duty. Not only do the ladies get a beautiful gift to use each day, they can look super stylish and put together in the getting ready for the wedding photos. Doie Lounge, Plum Pretty Sugar and BHLDN are excellent places to start. Photo: Page Bertelsen

Monthly Presents
There are lots of options for subscription-by-mail beauty kits out there, but we like Birch Box when it comes to gifting. Customize the selection for fashionistas, classic looks or fan favorites for a rotating collection of five samples each month of beauty products, fragrances and cosmetics. They also do more customized special edition boxes, like Home Sweet Home (pictured; featuring home decor, cozy socks and hot chocolate) or the workout kit.
