The Perfect Bridesmaid Gifts

5 gifts for under £50

Now as always I’m writing from experience and there’s no shying away from that fact of the matter that having a big bridal squad comes at a cost!

But did you know that traditionally the married couple buying a gift for the bridesmaid was done as a thank you for the bridesmaid buying her own dress. Now yes after a recent survey there is still a small 20% of couples who do ask their bridesmaids to purchase their own dress and I guess if your giving them the option of choosing what to wear in my opinion that’s totally cool. But the majority of couples are paying out for the dresses, the hair and make up, the shoes etc and still gifting? 

And it’s not ending there right, then there’s the robes and slippers and the personalised box full of (come on let’s be honest) the wedding equivalent of ‘stocking fillers. Listen it’s not all about what looks good on the gram so ask yourself is it necessary?

So the dress and hair and make up aside if you still want to gift a little something on the morning of the wedding I have put together some links to my top 5 gifts under £50…and no toot included! 


Robes

So let’s start with some lovely robes, no wedding morning is complete without one right! What I have found is what costs the extra penny’s is having personalised robes! Does this really show in your photos ? And your friends and family looking at these pics already know who the bride is so you can save money here but scrapping the personalisation option!

I found this lovely small company who offer robes with or without the personalisation for a great price!

Jewellery

Let’s talk jewellery! I guess it’s totally acceptable to ask the bridesmaids to keep jewellery to a bare minimum and depending on the dresses necklaces can be a little busy looking so I found these cute personalised initial bracelets from Abbott Lyon for just £35! Available in gold, rose gold and silver! Remember to always Google a discount code I found 25% off with TREAT25

Have a little extra to spend? You can add a personalised gift bag for £6!
