Something Different
by Del on August 8, 2008
When I saw a pink hip flask as a bridesmaid gift suggestion, I had to smile. I'm always nervous about giving alcohol-related gifts to people, even when I know they imbibe. Is my gift suggesting that you're a wino?
Still, it's cute! And definitely outside of the usual purse-compact-jewelry bridesmaid gift theme. Would you give it?
More importantly, do you give all of your attendants the same gift or do you personalize for each individual? I like the idea of unique gifts specific to the person. Yes, it takes more time and thought - because you really have to know your bridesmaids' quirks and personalities, but isn't that why you chose them? Other bridesmaid gift ideas outside of the box:
* Crystal paperweights, perfect for the lady who works out of her home office
* Personalized apron for the baker
* A special book for the avid reader
* Eco-friendly sachets for the diehard environmentalist

I love the idea of getting girls something unique but also something that is the same price and in the same type of family. One great idea is to get them Vintage necklaces that they can wear to the wedding- there are no two the exact same. http://www.someonespoilme.com/gift-review/vintage-bridesmaid-gift/

Nice idea, and I do have friends who would definitely apprecaite a hip flask BUT I have to say I think a pretty silver bracelet or bangle would mae a more memorable gift.
