To fit your unique relationship with your bridesmaid, you’ll be able to choose from 22 different inspirational sayings that will be engraved on the inside of the bracelet. It’s a great bridesmaid gift on its own, but at such an attractive price point, it would also be a perfect addition to any gift set. Plus, it already comes with an elegant gift box. We think this sleek and minimalistic design is poised to please even the pickiest one in the group.

CCJK Bracelet Flask

Okay, we think this flask is kind of genius. It’s a hollow stainless steel bracelet that comes with a lid and funnel so you can pour up to 3.5 oz. of your favorite drink. Encouraging a good time, this is definitely the kind of gift to give on the night of your bachelorette party. It’s large, but not as bulky as the photos portray, and it has a solid seal to make sure you won’t accidentally drip your chosen libation all over the dance floor. Set your girls up for a night of spirited fun with this stylish bracelet flask.

Pros:

  • Available in multiple styles and colors, so you can choose the one that best suits each of your ladies
  • It’s surprisingly discreet and actually looks like an oversized bangle
  • Holds about 3.5 oz. of liquid

Cons:

  • Not well-suited for someone with larger hands

Heather & Willow Cosmetic Bag

These canvas makeup bags are not only cute but will also be super useful on the big day. There are multiple colors to choose from, and you’ll receive five bridesmaid bags and one bride bag. The material is a durable cotton canvas with a high-quality gold zipper. These large bags are perfect for storing day-of makeup and essentials and would look great in the background of your “getting ready” photos. Who wouldn’t love some matching swag?

Pros:

  • Durable and high-quality materials
  • Clutch-size bag with an impressive capacity

Cons:

  • The rose gold is more of a straight-up pink color

Heather & Willow Stainless Steel Tumblers

Great for champagne, wine, or your favorite cocktail, these matching tumblers will be a hit among the group. They’re designed with double vacuum walls and stainless steel to keep your drinks cold for five hours and warm beverages hot for about three hours.

This is a gift that your girls will be using long after the big day.

Pros:

  • Insulated tumblers are effective with hot or cold beverages
  • Gorgeous, chic design
  • Great quality for the price

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I get a different gift for my maid (or man) of honor?
This totally depends on you and what you think your maid of honor would expect. Usually, the maid of honor will receive something more intimate, as the title itself is very special. The maid of honor will feel loved just knowing the title you offered them, but a different or extra gift to truly show your appreciation for them would go a long way. You could also get them the same gift as the bridesmaids and slightly customize it with their title for something a little more personal and unique.

Is there anything I should consider when shopping for bridesmaids’ gifts?
It’s worth keeping a few things in mind when searching for the perfect gift for your besties. First and foremost, always consider your budget. Small things like bridesmaid gifts can really add up if you’re not careful and selective. You also might want to consider if you will be giving each bridesmaid their own unique gift or plan to do matching gifts. If you have a bridesmaid who isn’t a woman, be sure to keep that in mind, too. And finally, it’s best to decide when and how many gifts you will give. Will you offer gifts in the bridesmaid proposal, at the bachelorette party, the day-of, or all of the above? However you choose to do it, relax and know that your squad will love it regardless. After all, they’re your bridesmaids for a reason.
