Looking for gift ideas for your bridesmaids that they’ll actually love, but not sure where to start? We’ve collected a few of our favorite ideas from real weddings here at 48 Fields to help spark some inspiration! Below are some classics and some unexpected gift ideas for your favorite gals.
MATCHING PAJAMAS
We’ve all seen matching robes for bridesmaids, but how about matching pajamas? We just love these cozy PJs Sarah gave her bridesmaids for her winter wedding. And as a bonus, they’re much more likely to wear them again! For more from Sarah and Chris’ big day, check out all the photos here.
PERSONALIZED CHAMPAGNE GLASSES
Planning to start your day with a champagne toast? Gift your squad personalized champagne glasses so they will have a keepsake that reminds them of this special moment together. For more inspiration, see the rest of Maria and Michael’s casual backyard-style wedding here.
COZY SHAWLS
Before you head out into the cold for your fall or winter wedding, give your bridesmaids a cozy scarf or shawl to stay warm. These blanket scarves were the perfect complement to Jenn and John’s fall color palette, and they also kept the wedding party warm! Pretty and practical is always a winning combination.
DIY GIFTS
If you’re the crafty type, there’s no more meaningful gift than one you make yourself! Melissa gifted her bridesmaids with these miniature embroideries, which matched the one she carried on her own bouquet. See more photos from Melissa and Marc’s Halloween wedding.
PERSONALIZED HANGERS
Would any bridesmaid gift list be complete without a mention of personalized hangers? We think not. These probably won’t be the only gift you give your bridesmaids, but for cute photos and a fun memento, you can’t go wrong with personalized hangers. Lauren gifted her bridesmaids with these fun wood hangers on her wedding day. See more of Lauren and Jake’s modern barn wedding.
MATCHING JACKETS
If you’re planning a cold-weather wedding, make sure your attendants stay warm for photos with matching jackets! Sydney gifted her bridesmaids with these floral denim jackets that coordinated with her wedding color palette. And best of all, this design is perfect for everyday wear long after the wedding is over.
THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX
Izzy surprised her bridesmaids with several fun gifts like these animal-print tumblers, as well as matching PJs in her wedding colors! When brainstorming gifts for your gals, don’t be afraid to think outside the box. You know your crew best, so you know what they’ll love! See more photos from Izzy and Wyatt’s olive green wedding.
We hope this list inspires you to find your bridesmaids something special to thank them for standing by your side! Next, check out our list of groomsmen gifts from real weddings.
