Can I please get some ideas on what to put in my bridesmaids goody bags?

Question

I have 4 bridesmaids and I've bought them these black tote bags with there names in it. I also bouth some fragrances, lotions and manicure set to put in them. what other things can I put in it that won't be so expensive?

Answer 1

What about a silver necklace, it doesn't have to be expensive and it's something they can keep forever x x

Answer 2

I was the maid of honor in a wedding last weekend and in my bag I got; the earrings I was supposed to wear during the ceremony, a sample of foot scrub, a small candle, a lip balm, and Tic-Tacs. That sounds like a crappy gift, but the bride paid for our dress and our shoes (together about 180 bucks). I think you could get them each a pair of flip flops (Old Navy 5 dollars or under) and maybe a small photo album to put wedding pics in!

Answer 3

search for cheap-nike  they have several good mailing suppliers.

Answer 4

Give them a photo frame, maybe a 10-20$ gift card to a nail salon or a day spa, go to a gourmet chocolate store and get them a little box of chocolates (about 5-10 dollars each). Fill 'er up!

Answer 5

The best bridesmaid gift I ever rec'd was a photo frame to put the photo of the bride and me in...the photo was a 5X5 size and the bride knew it and purchased us all a special frame for the photo.

Answer 6

Photos of you with the girls, in a nice but inexpensive frame. Magazines (not bridal ones, unless they're getting married soon too) or paperback books that they might enjoy. iTunes gift cards. Lip gloss. Little sewing kits in case there's a fashion emergency on the wedding day. Candy and breath mints. Granola bars in case they want a snack during pictures or waiting in the car. Reusable water bottles. Bubbles.

Most importantly, a handwritten note saying how much they mean to you and how honored you are that they are serving as bridesmaids at your wedding.

Answer 7

If you are giving them to them at the rehearsal diner, then you can include things that they will need the next day and are bound to forget.  

A small makeup bag, around $2 at the Walmart or somewhere like that.  Just big enough to carry lip gloss and makeup needed for touch ups.  

If it would not offend anyone the travel deodorant is nice, I like to touch that up if I;m in a sleeveless dress and am dancing or outside.  

I included the intuition Razor sets in my bags, they are wonderful and something any one rarely buys for themselves.  

Nail polish in the color you choose for them to wear if they are not doing french manicure or for toenails.

A piece of Jewelry, a bracelet or something simple.  

Flip Flops that match their dress or are white, they can wear these before the ceremony, to get to there, or during the reception when everyone goes barefoot usually for dancing anyway

Simply think about what you would like, or what would make things easier for you if it were you getting the bag.  They will love the thought anyway

Answer 8

A fancy chocolate bar. :)

Answer 10

stuff they are going to need on your big day! extra hair pins, tide sticks, little packs of wet wipes, ect. that way they will be able to help you out too if you need any of that.

Answer 11

A stress ball for a laugh

Personalised Gift Cards or vouchers from you, such as an IOU an hours shopping or IOU a shoulder to cry on etc

Answer 12

If you can keep them from melting, chocolates are always good.

Answer 13

I made a cute little "survival kit" for my girls - I put all of these items in a really cute beach bag that they can bring with them throughout the day with everything they'd need for the wedding day:

- earrings and bracelet for them to wear at the wedding

- shoes for the wedding

- flip flops for the reception (in case their feet hurt)

- Tide Stick

- mini deoderant

- hairspray

- oil blotter sheets (for their faces)

- lip balm

- tank top to wear while they get their hair done

- mini sewing kit

- tissues

- a pack of gum

You don't need to go crazy with your gifts, just make sure you give them something meaningful :-)

Answer 14

I did the same for my bridesmaides! I put flip flops so they would have comfy shoes at the reception, their wedding jewlery, a picture frame with a pic of me and them (something personal) and some lotions, candles and stuff that pertains to them.
