Gifts for Your Girls and Groomsmen

If you’re a summer bride looking to spice things up for your wedding party, you may be starting to think of unique gifts to your bridesmaids or groomsmen.  Lucky for you, the experts at Brilliant Event Planning have found some of the trendiest items for gift giving. Whether you’re popping the question or sharing a special day-of touch, we’ll show you how to ‘wow’ your wedding party!  

How Charming

Who said girls can't have a little fun with 'proposing'? Ladies, if you're looking to bring a smile to your bridesmaid-to-be's face, try giving her a custom charm necklace or bracelet. Every time your lucky lady looks at this special gift, she'll think of the bond you two share and of course about your wedding day!  For the grooms, we suggest a gift that makes their best men and groomsmen recognizable by all the rest of the wedding.  We especially love these "Best Man" monogramed cufflinks, which come in many labels, including "Father of the Bride" and "Usher".

Perfect in a Pinch

A great gift for wedding party guests that is both cute and functional is a customized cosmetic bag, available from many pricy brands and artisan shops.  However, our favorite pouches for the wedding party to be able to use on your wedding day are these 'minimergency' kits by Pinch Provisions. Perfect for any day-of mishaps or traveling needs.  They even come in Bride, Bridesmaid, and Groom versions; oh and did we mention you can even build your own custom kit on their website?  With so many colors and iconic charms, you can't go wrong!

Bring on the Bubbly!

Your wedding party has no doubt been working very hard to make your special day the absolute best, why not reward them with a cocktail or two?  There are many websites that offer customized champagne labels for the ladies, including ones that ask "Will you be my bridesmaid?" For the men we suggest customized flasks or mugs, with each man's name on it and perhaps your wedding date.  Both gifts leave a lasting impression, and ensure your wedding day is off to a great start.

Sweep them off their feet

On your wedding day, you and your girls will be dressed to the nine's, we're guessing with some sky-high shoes included -- but every girl knows just how great it feels to kick off her heels at the end of a long day.  Brides, give the gift of comfort and try providing these packable, wearable flats for your bridesmaid to change into during the receptions, we bet they'll be thanking you later.  For the groomsmen, we love the idea of having all members wear the same socks, that the groom has personally picked out! The labels are customizable, and the matching scheme makes for adorable wedding photos.
