Bridesmaid Gift Ideas for Your Best Girls!

From helping organize your bridal shower and bachelorette party to offering their support during one of the biggest days of your life, your bridesmaids will no doubt show up for you in many different and special ways. As the bride, it’s important for you to tell your bridesmaids in no uncertain terms just how much they mean to you. A small token of your gratitude can go a long way in this endeavor and can even serve as a keepsake of those feelings long after the grand occasion.

 Are you struggling to find the perfect way to say ‘thank you’ to those special ladies who will be standing by your side at one of the most important moments of your life? There are so many different gift ideas for bridesmaids floating around on the internet, which can make it difficult to narrow it down. Fortunately, you’ve come to the right place. Whether your girls are sassy, sweet, sophisticated, or a mix of all three, they’re bound to love one of these chic and simple tokens that are perfect for showing your gratitude.

If you want to give your bridesmaids a gift that they will never forget, then Venus ET Fleur® is here for you. We offer a wide variety of unique and luxurious Eternity® Roses that are sure to make a lasting impression on your bridal party. Our special collections are full of elegant offerings that they will surely cherish month after month.

Gift Ideas for Your Special Girls

Customarily, a bride is to present their bridesmaids a gift during the rehearsal dinner to thank them for all of their efforts. In this post, we’ll detail a number of diverse and delightfully elegant gift ideas that will be perfect for your bridesmaids. If you’re searching for a one-of-a-kind gift that can be personalized for each friend or family member, we hope you will find something here that speaks to your needs.

A Matching Robe Set

For a gift that not only serves a purpose on the wedding day but long after, we highly recommend the gift of silk or satin robes, white for the bride, and an alternate matching color for the bridesmaids, perhaps with a fun floral pattern. Matching robes can make for a fun photoshoot or simply give you something to get ready in together on the big day. Order them monogrammed for that extra special, individualized touch.

Fun Tote Bags

Given the considerable amount of cargo involved in a wedding, to say nothing of the to-and-fro excitement, tote bags can make a handy and memorable gift for the wedding day. You have free rein to put as much personality into the bags as you like and show each one of your bridesmaids just how much you know and care about them.

This is another gift that keeps on giving, as its potential use will last a long time after your nuptials are concluded. What’s more, throw in some fun goodies to heap gratitude onto your special girls. Anything from candy to bath bombs or shower gel, scented lotion, makeup, yummy snacks, bottles of water or juice, nail polish, hair ties, or any special little odd or end that you think will make a nice treat. This can be an incredibly thoughtful gift, as we have not yet met the person who doesn’t love to receive an adorable goodie bag.

Jewelry

Is it even possible to go wrong with jewelry? We doubt it. A beautiful and even personalized piece of jewelry can serve as a wonderful gift for any and all your bridesmaids. It can be a joy to plan out a custom, coordinated set of necklaces, bracelets, or earrings. The more personal, the better! The right piece can be as fashionable as it is sentimental.

We love the idea of an initial necklace for each bridesmaid, but maybe you’ll think of an even more creative way to show your best girls how much they mean to you on your wedding day.

Glassware

A nice mug or wine glass is a practical, affordable gift that your best friends can keep in their lives for a long time after. And, like the gift of a tote, a piece of glassware can be thoughtfully filled with smaller goodies, along with an appreciative card or note.

A Luxurious Scented Candle

One of those gifts that are always welcome—this can be a superb way to give a gorgeous gift without taking up too much space. So, in the event that yours is a destination wedding that requires your family and guests to pack smart, the gift of a splendid candle is sure to be much appreciated.

While picking scents can involve a dizzying range of options, a great place to start is by looking into your bridesmaids’ choice of perfume. A sandalwood or pine candle is a perfect idea for the bridesmaid who loves spicy and musky perfumes. For a friend who loves floral scents, consider the muted elegance of a jasmine, gardenia, or rose-scented candle. 

Venus ET Fleur offers a splendid Nue Tuberose scented candle, which burns a soothing, blush-tinted wax made from a blend of soy and coconut oils, and housed within a handcrafted porcelain vessel dripping with sophistication. It radiates the brilliant fragrance of rose, along with hints of orange and lotus blossoms, bergamot, and freesia.

For a slightly more personal touch, and if you have a little bit of time and labor to spare, it’s always possible to make scented candles of your own. This can prove to be a fun and interesting craft and is sure to win your points with your bridesmaids for thoughtfulness.

A Relaxing Spa Day

Many of our love languages favor experiences over material gifts. To that effect, a relaxing spa getaway can be a luxurious treat to give to your best girls! Spas have been enjoyed throughout history for their restorative properties, and whether you’re treating your maids to a nice massage, aromatherapy, or a luxurious experience at a sauna, they are certain to feel seen and taken care of.

Nothing says ‘I appreciate you’ more than a few blissful hours of relaxation away from reality. Pick out a location close to their home, or time permitting, you can opt to make it a group spa day during preparations for your big day.

An Unforgettable Flower Arrangement

Finally, if you’re in the mood to sincerely wow your maids and to give them a gift that truly lasts, consider a signature Eternity® rose arrangement from us and ours at Venus ET Fleur. Our bouquets arrive full of beautiful roses that require no maintenance or watering and can last up to a year. A Venus ET Fleur arrangement is an unforgettably radiant gift to express your love and thanks to your bridesmaids. 

You have the option to choose from incredible rose colors and multiple box designs, shapes, and shades, which can evoke a vast array of different meanings.

One splendid option for such a gift is our bestselling Le Mini™ Square in pink or yellow, a magnificent piece which displays nine stunning Eternity Roses snugly kept in one of our Parisian hat-box inspired vessels. This gorgeous arrangement is not only space-efficient but radiates sophistication and is sure to elevate any space.

When you present these beautiful Venus ET Fleur rose boxes to your bridesmaids, there are sure to be gasps of joy and delight when they remove the lids and see the breathtaking, stunningly-arranged Eternity Roses. You’ll love how gorgeous our roses are, and your bridesmaids will smile every time they see the arrangements displayed in their homes or apartments after your wedding.

Alternatively, if you have the perfect idea for an original arrangement that you would like designed or created for you, you can contact our helpful and attentive customer service team! They will be sure to do their best to help your dream become a reality.

Final Thoughts

Whatever form of these many thoughtful gifts you end up choosing for your bridesmaids, we have no doubt that they will feel honored that you chose them to stand by you on your special day. Gestures of love like these will help make your girlfriends feel like family through all the parties, events, dinners, showers, and the rest.

At the end of the day, these are your best girls, and only you know how to best pay tribute to their quirks, interests, preferences, and individual spirits. We hope that this brief but detailed guide has been helpful to you in your search for the perfect gift to make your special girls feel like just that.

Best wishes and congratulations from all of us at Venus ET Fleur.
