bridemaids gifts...

[Luvndisney]

I know its early to think about but i saw these great locket bracelets on disney direct on sale and was thinking of getting them now. I want to know what everyone thinks about them and if they are a nice enough gift - BE HONEST!!
Here's the link. I like the bracelets better.

DIsney necklace

IDEAS????

Personally? If I could swing it $$-wise, I would buy both. You may be able to get another discount with the Disney Visa or other code. Check it out!

I would be thrilled if I got them as a gift! But then, I'm a bit of a Disney freak!

 

[Luvndisney]

I love them too, but one of the girls is not a big disney freak. She likes it but doesnt love it so I was concerned about her loving it.

Thanks for the feedback

Even for a non-disney freak- i think it would be a great momento of the trip! I love them both, might have to buy myself one...

Great momento of a WDW wedding!! I say go for it.

Hi! I like them both but would probably go with the necklace. The only reason I say that is because if the bracelet also has the charm which hangs down, it might get annoying to wear after a while (like if someone is typing on a computer!). With the necklace, a person could wear it all the time. Again, just my opinion. I've actually decided not to get my girls anything Disney related before the wedding because I'm sure they'll want to pick something out for themselves while we're there. Instead, we're doing the spa treatments together and I'm buying them both something small from one of their favorite stores. Good luck!

One thing that we're thinking about for our wedding party is pink ears for the bridesmaids and the black ones for the guys. Not their official gift, but just as something fun. 2 of my bridesmaids have never been to WDW...so I thought it would be fun!

I love the bracelet...there is also one with a heart and a minnie charm and on the heart is another pink rhinestone heart...I like that one too! I would love any of those gifts but I too am a disney freak!

Since we are on this topic...what is an averahge amount or gift that people give to the BM's? I have a while to save but I will probably have AT LEAST 6 girls so $100+ is a bit much for me! Any suggestions on price range?

Great question! I'm having 4 girls...Matron of Honor, Bridesmaid, Jr. Bridemaid and Flower Girl. For the two ladies, I'm spending about $75 each. For the younger ones (ages 7 and 3), I'm spending about $25 each. My FSIL was recently married, had 5 of us in her bridal party and spent about $40 each. She picked out a sterling silver and amethyst bracelet which she liked because we could wear it beyond the wedding day. I'd say spend whatever you feel you can afford. Don't break the bank because it's your day!

Good luck!

Oh thanks reeses i was getting worried because of heard some people spending like over $100 and i probably won't be able to do that! I guess jewlery is the traditional gift?

You're welcome Mary! Let us know what you decide to get. I think jewelry is more like the easiest thing to pick out because the girls can wear it on the wedding day and then have a momento. I've been in several weddings and the gift has always been jewelry. Not that I mind...I LOVE jewelry! lol

I have 1 MOH & 3 BMs... I haven't decided what to get everyone yet, but I don't think that it will be Disney related (like reese5574 said, they may want to pick up their own souvenirs while they are there) and I am also not getting everyone the same thing, as each of them are very different! The only gift that I know for sure is a Vera Bradley bag for my one BM...

I love the necklace. I might buy one for me.

I think its a great idea and sort of wish I hadn't already bought my gifts. We decided to get the whole wedding party Mickey Mouse watches. We picked a different one for each person. It took forever.

 

[novemberbride]

where did you get the mickey mouse watches?
