As you make all the plans and preperations for your wedding day, make sure you keep in mind one of the most important things: giving your bridesmaids their gifts. The lovely ladies who make up your wedding party add so much to your special day, and they certainly deserve to be thanked accordingly. Below are just a few of the hottest bridesmaid gifts for spring weddings.
Jewelry is always an excellent idea for bridesmaid gifts. You can either select bridesmaid jewelry sets which coordinate with your wedding colors or simply choose pieces which you know your friends will enjoy. One of the biggest trends for spring weddings this year is the color purple, in every shade from pale orchid to regal plum or exotic eggplant. Your favorite shade of purple can be a beautiful inspiration for custom bridesmaid jewelry. A pretty combination of elegant and of the moment is Swarovski crystal jewelry handcrafted with sparkling purple crystals. Either select one shade of purple and use it for all of your bridesmaids’ necklaces, earrings, and bracelets, or have sets created in a range of hues so that each woman can have a slightly different gift.
Another fabulous bridesmaid gift idea takes advantage of two top wedding trends this spring: personalization and lots of crystals. A very thoughtful and distinctive bridesmaid gift is a Swarovski crystal pendant which is monogrammed. The sparkling crystal disc is actually engraved with the initials of your attendants; it makes a very special bridesmaid gift which can be enjoyed for years after the wedding. Choose a heart shaped pendant if you are a romantic, or opt for a simple circle shape. Whatever you choose, it is guaranteed that your bridesmaids will love it.
A popular item for this spring are butterflies, so a bridesmaids gift with a butterfly theme would be grand? A beautiful gift for your attendants would be a sparkling Swarovski crystal butterfly pendant. A perfect gift that would look lovely on your bridesmaid’s dressing tables would be an enamel box with a multi-colored butterfly motif? A butterfly patterned scarf would be a beautiful bridesmaid gift if your bridesmaids are into wearing scarfs. Wrapping up a gift in a butterfly printed wrapping paper as a whimsical detail would also be a great idea.
Silver picture frames are a classic bridesmaid gift idea which will never go out of style. They make an especially thoughtful gift if you have them engraved with each woman’s initials. The perfect sentimental gift for your more traditional bridesmaids would be a picture of the two of you enjoying a memorable moment together.
The best bridesmaid gifts have lasting value, which is why classic items like jewelry and silver are so popular. There are less usual gift ideas which also will be enjoyed for the long term. A plant or shrub would be the perfect gift for your bridesmaids if they have a green thumb and enjoy gardening. Work with a local plant nursery to ensure that the variety you select is hardy for her hometown, and then have the plant of your choice delivered (no fair asking someone to pick up their own gift!). Every spring after your wedding as the flowers growna nd blossom, your bridesmaids will always think of the wonderful time they had at your wedding and the friendship that you share. What really makes a wonderful bridesmaid gift is if it makes your bridesmaid think of you when she sees it.
