What do I give the bride at a bridal shower?

Question

I have never attended one. I am also attending her three Bachelorette parties and her wedding. She is a family friend. I assume I have to get her a large wedding gift. So what do I get for the bridal shower?

Answer 1

If she's registered somewhere get something she wants off her list, if not you could get her a cookbook, kitchen items, frame, candle, towels. Get her something personal for the Bachlorette party. As far as the wedding get her a gift certificate so she can get what she needs or money in a nice card to be used on their honeymoon, it's nice to have a little extra money for such a special occasion.

Answer 2

Most brides are registering with different stores so that you are able to go to the store they have selected and pick something from their list and once you buy the item the computer will mark it so that she will not end up with the same from several people. If you are a crafty person something handmade always means a lot. But when I got married my fav.s was the gift cards and the lingerie always brings a smile too if you know the brides size. The least fav gift I got was the picture albums and picture frames, it seemed like I got about 10 of each and still don't use them. Hope this helps.

Answer 3

Do not assume you need to give her a large wedding gift you are already giving her 4 other gifts. I would give her something she registered for, something inexpensive like a set of bowls or a toaster.

The bridal shower can be personal something that you know she would like for her house. A nice clock or a mirror  something decrotive.

Answer 4

I would give her money for her wedding, depending on how close she is to you..$50-$100.00.   Most people appreciate money as a gift.  You can't go wrong with that.

For a bridal shower, can you ask the person that organized it for some ideas?  Anything for the kitchen....mixing bowls, pasta dishes, coffee mugs.  Towels for the bathroom, etc.

Also, does she have a wedding registry online that you can look up....maybe you can get her something off of that for her shower.

Answer 5

How about a fun "soon to be a mrs..." or "future mrs..." shirt.

You could have it personalized with her future name - and they are available in all kinds of styles & sweat suits too.
