Best Unique Thoughtful Bridesmaid Gifts
1. Thank You Card
First and foremost, you have to write a thank you card to each and every one of your bridesmaids. They made a time and financial commitment to be part of your wedding because they love you so much.
This will warm their hearts!
2. Jewelry
I know we are supposed to be talking about unique thoughtful bridesmaid gifts but l just have to start with a classic – jewelry.
Do you want your girls to all wear the same jewelry on the day of your wedding? Gift it to them.
There are loads of options but keep it classic and elegant with pearls and diamonds.
Girl, they don’t even have to be real.
3. Jewelry Travel Bag
If your bridesmaids are anything like me, they like to take jewelry along when they travel.
But no one wants everything to be all tangled up when they get to their destination.
This jewelry travel bag is the perfect solution for just that.
4. Makeup Travel Bag
This makeup bag is so great the way it lays open, she will be able to see all her makeup at once.
5. Water Bottle
Keep your girls hydrated with a spectacular water bottle.
You know your girls would love a Stanley Quencher, even if they already have one.
6. Travel Mirror
No matter what, there is never enough mirror space when getting ready for a wedding. These travel mirrors are the perfect solution.
It is slim, durable, the cover flips to be a stand, and it has rechargeable lights.
Also, include this compact mirror so they can easily check their hair and makeup throughout your wedding day.
7. Perfume or Body Spray
Help your bridesmaids smell like a million bucks with a bottle of perfume or body spray. Here are a few that would work for any lady, just in case you don’t know their favorite scent.
Sol de Janeiro Body Spray (all the scents are good)
8. Mini Fan
No one thinks of how much they will sweat on a wedding day but girl it happens and not just to you.
This mini fan is so cute, and inexpensive, and will keep you and your bridesmaids from sweating up a storm.
9. Wedding Day Get Ready Basket
Get your girls a robe or button-down shirt for when they are getting their hair and makeup done. No one wants to try and carefully lift a shirt over that when it is time to get dressed for the ceremony.
Also include a hair clip which will be so helpful for the girls who are doing their makeup first.
And more than likely you will be up late the night before your wedding with your bridesmaids. These 24K gold under-eye patches will help combat puffy eyes on your wedding day.
10. Nail Polish
If you are hoping your girls will have their nails done in the same color, gift them that nail polish.
Essie nail polish is top-notch with lots of elegant colors. Also, get a clear top coat. I love the clear gel top coat best because it helps the color polish last so long. Nope, you don’t need a special dryer for it. Let it air dry or use a hair dryer.
11. Sunglasses
Get your girls fun sunglasses to wear on your wedding day. These can be for your groomsmen as well.
12. Hand Sanitizer
Touchland makes fabulous hand sanitizer spray and every girl wants to use it, including your bridesmaids.
13. Lip Balm
EOS lip balm is so good and you know it will get used.
What do you like better the stick or the egg and what is your favorite kind? Let me know in the comments below.
I prefer the stick in Vanilla.
You could also get a little luxe and get your girls the Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask. I know it says lip sleeping mask but it leaves my lips so soft and moisturized that I use it all day long too.
14. Picture Frame
She will love a classic picture frame with a favorite photo of the 2 of you in it.
You need to check out this digital picture frame (you will want one of these as well). She will love that she can put thousands of pictures on it directly from her phone.
15. Recovery Kit
Put together a recovery kit for your bridesmaids since they will be partying so hard at your wedding. You girls will appreciate this gift so much.
Add snacks, Gatorade, makeup remover wipes, antacids, and pain meds.
16. Shower Steamers/ Bath Bombs
They can feel so pampered with these shower steamers and bath bombs.
I mostly take showers so I have used the shower steamers way more. Girl, they make your bathroom smell like a spa. It is so relaxing.
17. Sugar Body Scrub
Tree Hut nailed it with their sugar body scrub and I know your bridesmaids will be instantly obsessed. I have smelled all the scents and Coco Colada is my favorite.
18. Lotion
Your girls will have the softest skin with this Aveeno Fragrance-Free lotion. Get the travel size so they can all take it on the go.
I always have one in my bag.
19. Candles
These candles, oh wow! They will all be in love. It is the Allswell Spa line from Walmart and I am obsessed.
There are a few different sizes and many scents to choose from.
20. Can Cooler
BruMate came to play when they created their insulated can coolers. Girl, I tested them out too in the dog days of southern summer heat.
They have can coolers for skinny drinks, regular cans, and bottles with so many great colors to choose from.
21. Drinks
Get your bridesmaids a bottle of wine or champagne to help you celebrate getting married. This gift will be a fan favorite!
You can also go with their favorite drinks.
Man, if I had to run through my sisters, it would be Margaritas, Beer, Whiskey, Tequila, Vodka, and Wine. Quite the variety.
22. Treats
If you don’t know your bridesmaids' favorite treats, ask them and then put together a treat bag for them.
I always include chocolates – most of the time Lindor Truffles.
23. Movie Night Gift Basket
After helping you with your bridal shower(s), bachelorette party, groom’s supper, and wedding day (especially holding your dress while you go to the bathroom), your bridesmaids will want a little time to just relax.
A movie night gift basket can help with that!
Think microwave popcorn, popcorn seasonings, cookies, and candies, and your movie night basket will be complete in no time.
And don’t forget a soft and snuggly blanket along with some cozy socks.
24. Gift Cards
Get your girls a gift card. Now this could be to a local coffee shop or favorite restaurant but it could also be for getting their hair and makeup done for your wedding. It could also be to get their nails done.
There are so many options.
