    Hello!!

    I am planning my best friends bachelorette party & I want to get her a sweatsuit that she can wear to the spa & wear on the wedding day. I have looked at rhinestone designs, embroidered designs, & printed designs....what is the best to get?? And what should it say...Bride to be, Future Mrs. Blank, Mrs. Blank...I just feel a little overwhelmed with all of the choices?!? Thanks for the help!!!

    In all honesty, I think I have to answer the post title: No. 

    Maybe get her a customized robe instead?  I think Mrs. ___ would be cute (if she is taking his name), and then she can wear it after the wedding too!

    I second that. I really like the robes, or even those personalized hangers with the bride's new last name sculpted into the wire. If it had her new last name instead of "Bride" or "Future Mrs ___" she could get more use out of it instead of just her wedding day. You are a thoughtful MOH :)

    i think that's a cute idea!  I like the personalized ones with mrs. blank or future mrs. blank, but all of them are nice ideas

    I like the wire hanger idea.  One thing I did for myself was get a zip up hoodie with my new last name on the back but no Mrs. or Soon to Be or anything like that.  This way, I'll be able to wear the thing for longer than one day.

    print or embroider would work well. Rhinestones always end up popping off eventually..

    @kenolan44: Well you are a REALLY good BM then :)

    I think print or embroidery would be best as well!

    I would love the hoodie!  I plan on getting myself one.  I chose embroidery it's the most permanent.  Sometimes that print stuff gets old and peels off.

    Cute idea and agreed with the PP that embroidery is the best option (the stones pop off in the dryer).

    I would make sure though that she is in fact taking his name. I am not changing my name so it might be bit odd to walk around as Mrs. "BLANK" unless she is the sort that doesn't mind.

    I don't know anyone who doesn't sport this stuff on their one day that they can, even if they think it's cheesy otherwise! I did one for my best friends wedding last year and she about died over it. She loved it. Just make sure it's a zip up! Then she has something to wear that she doesn't have to pull off over her head and mess up her hair and make up! Have fun!

    I've been trying to tactfully tell my BMs that I want one of these since we got engaged lol...so yes, I think it's a great idea! I like the "Future Mrs. ____" if she's taking his name, otherwise I think the "BRIDE ones are super cute too!
