Something Blue: 6 Practical Bridesmaids Gifts

By posted January 5, 2010, 9:20 am | Comments: 5

Being a bridesmaid is an honor, but can be a daunting task. As a bridesmaid, you’re responsible for helping the bride-to-be with anything she needs, from running errands to helping plan the bachelorette party or offering moral support. It’s no wonder the Big Day is almost as exciting for a bridesmaid as it is for the bride.


Now, as the bride, you’ll want your bridesmaids to remember this day that they’ve shared with you and to thank them for their support along the way. So it’s only appropriate to give a gift to show them your appreciation.

    I was in a friends wedding in April, our shoes were Rainbow Flip Flops. The bride and Groom gave us all, bridesmaids and groomsmen, the flip flops as our gift. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve worn them, they were a great wedding gift!

    Rainbow flip flops are godsent. What a great affordable, practical and extremely comfortable gift. I have no doubt you and wedding party danced the night away.

    You should check BridePOP for my future posting about wearing flats instead of heels on the big day. I feature some beautiful embellished flats for the bride and bridesmaids.

    Thanks for your feedback.
