What Are Great Gifts For The Bridal Party? – Ask The Expert Answer

Question from Lynette:

I am in my 40’s and this is second wedding for me and first for the groom.  Our wedding party ages range from 35 – 50 years old, and they have everything.  Any suggestions on unique gift ideas and what is the appropriate amount to spend?

Answer from Bridal Expert Angela:

Hi Lynette, and congratulations on your upcoming wedding.  The classic gift for the bridal party is jewellery.  The jewellery is usually worn on the wedding day to give a consistent look to the bridal party.  The ladies usually get necklaces, and the fellows often get tie pins or tie clips, or watches. 

The bridal party spends a lot of money on their attire, and paying for the costs involved in the bridal shower and stag party.  So the gifts for the bridal party should roughly equal what they spend.  Of course, a gift is given based on what the giver can give, so this could vary. 

These links should give you some great ideas.
