DH and I thought long and hard about what to get our bridal party. I wanted our gifts to be special. Our Bridal Party was coming from all over the world to celebrate with us. The GM got these cufflinks in blue from Banana Republic. Very nice. I wrapped them in Simpson’s wrapping paper (my husband’s favorite show).
The Jr. Gm and RB (brothers) each got Pirates of the Caribbean book bags filled with pirate things, all from the park.
The BM gifts took a lot of time, but I’m really happy with the outcome. I created photo albums filled with my favorite memories of each girl. Each book was specific to that girl. Instead of it being a regular album, I designed them digitally and had them printed; costly, but personal. The BMs also got personalized totes, filled with pink rubber duckies, Bath and Body Work products, and earrings to match their dresses. My Jr. got a tote, American Girl bath products, earrings, a Disney princess coloring book, crayons a yoyo, and an antique sterling silver brush and mirror set. The FG got a mini tote, princess books, crayons, and a set of “pearl “earrings, necklace, and a bracelet that she wore in the wedding. All of the princess stuff was found in the Target dollar aisle! The antique silver set and the pearl set were bought on eBay, and the totes were bought from
Cathy's Concepts. The BM earrings were from White House Black Market.
I got a very similar (and smaller) pair for the Jr BM from a kiosk in the mall.
My cousin was a reader and we wanted to get him something special as well. Being a huge Goofy fan, we had a sketch of Goofy made for him at Epcot. The artist personalized it, and we framed it for him back home.
We wanted to get our parents gifts, as they were not only financing, but really helping to plan the wedding. We got my parents gift certificates for massages at a day spa. We bought his parents Disney gift cards to use during their stay.
For ourselves, we had found out through DH's brother that Disney was quietly opening a new section of bricks on the Walk around the World path. So, rather than buying each other gifts, we chipped in and bought ourselves a commemorative wedding brick right outside the gate to MK!
