When you choose bridesmaids for your wedding, you’re picking friends and relatives that will stick by your side all the way to the end of the aisle. From dress fittings to the bachelorette party, these girls are in it for the long haul.
So, when the big day finally arrives, it’s the perfect time to thank them for all their love, support, and friendship. Here are some timeless (& practical) bridesmaid gifts that won’t break the bank.
Personalized Compact Mirror
There’s something classic about a mirror compact. It’s not something you think to buy for yourself, but it makes a great gift. We love that these can be personalized with a name or wedding party title, and they come in so many cute colors. These metallic compacts start at $12 each on Etsy.
Silk Sleep Mask
Who doesn’t love a good night’s sleep? This luxurious silk sleep mask (which comes in ten colors) is heavenly and your girls will love it! Plus, it’s hypoallergenic, super soft, and durable. Grab one in every color for $50 each at Sephora.
Personalized Jewelry Tray
Another fave personalized gift is a gold-rimmed jewelry tray. This is a gift that each of your girls will use for years to come and is a necessity for the powder room sink. Have these personalized with a name or monogram initial in gold foil vinyl. Score them for $15 each on Etsy.
Monogrammed Weekender Bag
You can’t go wrong with a weekender bag! It’s functional, practical and something your girls will always need for those short getaway trips. We love that this bag can be monogrammed as well. Just choose the bag color, thread color, and font option. Bonus: it comes with a removable shoulder strap, so she doesn’t have to carry a loaded bag with her hands. Grab this great gift for $33 at Arden & Gold.
Personalized Picture Frame
Picturing something sentimental? This customizable pine wood frame takes the cake for a great bridesmaid gift. Give her the picture frame (with a personal message from you) when you ask her to be your bridesmaid. When the wedding is over, send her a photo of the two of you to put in the frame. Stock up on these $23.50 frames on Etsy.
Classic Pair of Earrings
One of the best gifts you can give your bridesmaid is a piece of jewelry, especially if they can wear it on your wedding day. Our top pick would be these sophisticated pearl pave studs—they’re so versatile! Your girls will love wearing them even after your big day. Snag them for $37 at Olive + Piper.
Spa Gift Basket
After spending several months helping you plan your wedding, your girls deserve to be pampered. This French Rose spa gift basket is the perfect choice for them to relax and restore. The set includes bath salt, goat milk soap, a soy candle, lip balm, and dark chocolate. Find these for $29.99 each on Amazon.
Customized Satin Pajamas
What could be cuter than matching satin pajamas? These are perfect getting-ready outfits for all your bridesmaids, plus there’s a white option for the bride. Add a personal touch by embroidering their name or monogram on the back, above the pocket, or on the sleeve cuff. These pajamas start at $57 each on Etsy.
Initials Makeup Bag
Another practical pick is this gorgeous initial makeup bag. It’s the perfect size to hold all her beauty essentials and the quilted velvet design is super cute. The bag comes in 5 different colors and personalization is totally free. Get these for $18.99 each at Bridesmaids Gifts Boutique.
Customized Marble Tumblers
Your girls will get a ton of use out of these cute 20-oz. marble tumblers. Grab one for each of the girls, with their name on them of course, and hand them out before your bachelorette party! The whole bridal party will be drinking in style all night, and nobody will mix up which drink belongs to them. Earn some brownie points by filling up the tumblers with candy! Find them for $18.99 each on Etsy.
Personalized Jean Jacket
This next gift idea is giving us serious Pink Ladies vibes. These heart script jean jackets are super cool and would make a perfect bridesmaid’s gift. The best part is these jackets can be worn all throughout your wedding festivities from the bachelorette party to the reception. Grab them for $55 each at David’s Bridal.
Gemstone Bracelet
Want a piece of jewelry that matches your wedding colors? This beautiful gold cuff bracelet is a timeless option for the elegant bride. There are over a dozen gemstone colors to choose from, and they’ll look great in bridal party photos. Check these out, starting at $50 each, at Kendra Scott.
Pay for a Service
Still not sure what to get the girls? Paying for a wedding day service is always a good option. Whether that means taking them to get their nails done, paying for a spray tan, or covering the cost of their hair and makeup.
Some brides even go as far as paying for the bridesmaid dresses if they’re adamant about a certain brand or style. No matter what you get them, your bridesmaids will feel totally appreciated with a thoughtful gift.
