How Do We Say "Thank You"

You’ve gotten engaged, set the date, chosen your ceremony & reception venue, and thought long and hard about your bridal party.  Now, on to the details; one being “what do we give our bridal party?” 

Whether it’s a friend or family member, the people you have chosen to be in your bridal party are near and dear to you and your fiancé.  You want to make sure that they know how much you appreciate everything they have done for you throughout this entire process.  One way is to say it with your gift.

Bridal party gifts are always a challenge for the couple.  Everyone in your bridal party has their own unique personality and you want to make sure that the gift represents who they are.  Here are ten steps to help you choose the right gift for each member of your bridal party.    

1. List each bridal party member.
2. Set a budget: Even if you plan to spend $20 per person, that can still add up. It's easy to overspend when you are choosing gifts for people you love.
3. Browse different magazines & websites for gift ideas: Bridal websites and magazines are not the only place to get inspiration for bridal party gifts.
4. Think of your bridal party’s favorite colors, hobbies, and things you all like to do for fun: This will help you come up with some ideas.
5. Write down five potential gift ideas: Make sure you work together, remember, two heads are sometimes better than one.
6. Check gifts online: Before you make a trip to the store check the prices online, sometimes you can save by making your purchases online.
7. Check the gifts against your budget: Choose wisely and stay within your budget.
8. Select a gift that will go with your group personality, style, or hobbies: Gifts for your bridal party don't have to be the same.  You may choose each gifts based on a person’s favorite color, personality, need, or simply because you think they will like it.  Personalization is a plus. 
9. Make sure to include a personal thank you with each gift: A handwritten note is always special.
10. Present the gift: Presenting after the rehearsal dinner would be ideal because you’re doing together as a couple.  However, it is okay to present the morning of the wedding.

All About Him!

The wedding day is not just for brides anymore.  Nowadays the groom has a lot of input into what that spectacular day will look like, how he wants the guests to feel, and every other aspect of the day.   

Also, like most men, the groom likes to add a little fun to the attire of his groomsmen as well as himself.  Ties are a good way for the men to express themselves and have fun too. 

Let’s take a look and get inspired!

We all know about the traditional ties.  Just so you know, they are still great!

Let "THEM" Eat Cake!

Gone are the days where the wedding is “just for the bride”.  I have found that many grooms are participating more and more in the decision making of the entire wedding experience.  Not just choosing the attire for himself and the groomsmen but also having a say on the color scheme, type of reception, number in bridal party, and choice of cake just to name a few. 

The cakes you are about to view are not so traditional and I am sure the groom would approve.

Let’s get inspired!!!
