I have a question for you ladies...
I was going over my timeline for the wedding and realized that we are really very close to our big day... and that we still haven't purchased any attendant gifts. It then got me thinking if I really need to pay for gifts and maybe I should just get the ladies and men a card instead. I'm not cheap... however we paid for the bridesmaid dresses ($250 +tax each), the men's suits and ties (almost $300 each). For the girls I am also paying for their hair and make-up for the morning of ($95 with tax and tip) and their manicure/pedicure for the morning of as well ($55 each with tax and tip).
We were wondering if a personal card was alright for everyone... or if we should buy a gift for each of them... and if so how much should we spend?
If a card is alright, how do I convey to them that everything was their gift?
What are you getting your wedding party?
Happy Planning! :)
I'm getting the bridesmaids jewelry and making them clutch purses and hairpieces. I'm also going to write each of them a card/letter to thank them for being a part of the wedding. I might pay for a manicure and their makeup on the morning of if they are interested in having it done professionally.
FH is getting his groomsmen gaming mice (they are all PC gamers).
I got my girls beach bags filled with a bath and body works gift basket, personalized flip flops and a wine glass I made) I think I'm giving them the wine glass at our spa day the week of the wedding because I'm taking wine and a fruit tray to snack on.
