Hi, my sister gave out cute boxes filled with lotions, jewlery to wear at the wedding, and cute little picture frames. My friend gave up flip-flops to wear during the reception and beach bags full of lotions and candles. I'm going to give all my girls a set of two champagne glasses and the guys are getting money clips. I have two jr. brides maids and I'm going to get them each cute purses (they have no need for champagne glasses!). Our flower girls are really into American Girl Place, so we're going to get them more outfits and accessories for their dolls.
Good Luck! Sarah

I am getting my bridesmaids a tote bag filled with their favorite lotions and things. My mom makes wonderful totebags and she has an embroidery machine so I can put their initials on them. I am going to get my mom a small pocket sized tissue holed with a message inscribed on it. She can use it on the wedding day when she cries and she always has tissues around everywhere else, too. I don't really know what to get my groom yet, he's so hard to shop for. I was thinking Tiffany cufflinks, but those are pretty expensive. For the groomsmen, he is getting them all USB memory sticks with their initials engraved on them. It sounds silly, but they're all computer guys, and those things can get pricey, so it would be a welcome gift. What is your budget? There's all sorts of stuff you can do inexpensively. Like maybe you can just take the girls out the day before the wedding and all get manicures. They run about $15-$20 apiece, and they'll have pretty nails for the wedding. Or maybe a purse size bottle of their favorite perfume, or a small jeweled compact mirror. We all need a mirror for our purses! You could get the guys a set of golf balls and think of some silly golf/marriage related message to put on the packaging. Go to www.myjeanm.com. It's a wedding vendor, they sell all sorts of stuff from favors to invitations. They have a lot of gifts and some of the stuff isn't too pricey. Plus, it'll give you ideas, even if you don't buy from them.
