Guest blogger Mandy Browne of Ladies Who Lunch jewellery – Tips for choosing bridesmaid gifts
Posted by Tammy on August 1st, 2009
You have been ticking tasks off your wedding ‘To Do’ list every day and the time has come to find really special gifts for your bridesmaids!
Here are a few tips to make this as easy and enjoyable as possible…
- Save yourself time and aching feet by making the internet your first port of call. There are lots of fabulous sites out there so you will be spoilt for choice. Do ask retailers to gift wrap your items – many offer this as a complimentary service and it saves you yet more time.
- Consider personalising the gifts to suit the colours/personality of the recipient. Hearts are always a popular choice and certainly appropriate! Our glass heart charm bracelets for example come in an array of different colours from classic crystal to vibrant lime and we also give you options for adding pewter charms include a high heeled shoe, handbag, or butterfly – there’s something for everyone.
- ‘Flower Power’ is back with a vengeance and we are finding flowers in great demand within our bespoke range. For ideas look at our multi-coloured flower bracelet in hot tropical colours which are fabulous for the summer and will definitely complement any vibrant wedding colour scheme. Stretchy bracelets like these are ideal as they fit all sizes. And for that extra special gift why not add a matching necklace – our Tropical Flower necklace is proving to be a best seller!
- For more classic types pearls are a must – small touches like a pewter heart added to a stretch pearl bracelet or a cluster of semi-precious beads can add that something special and ensure your gift is worn for years to come.
- Bling is still the ‘In Thing’ – for the glamorous at heart look out for simple crystal earrings and bracelets, they will dress up any outfit beautifully!
Whatever your budget there are fabulous gifts out there that will delight even the most discerning bridesmaid, and chances are you’ll find something to treat yourself to as well. Perhaps a little something to wear on your honeymoon! If you would like any advice or suggestions do contact us at Ladies Who Lunch and we will be only too happy to help.
