    i'd like to get my bm's robes from victoria's secret for their bridesmaid's gifts, and get their initials monogrammed on them.  except i have no idea where i can take the robes to get them monogrammed.  does anyone know where i can take them and around how much it will cost me?

    I would look into local print shops, like the same kind of place that would make tee shirts or hats. A lot of them have embroidery capabilities too. But I would call to see if they would embroider outside materials. They may only do embroidery on their own products.

    Hmmm, if you order robes from say... Bed Bath & Beyond perhaps they have personalization as an option, I know they do monogramming for towels and doormats.... perhaps!

    Sorry I can't help, but I think that's a great idea and I might have to steal it. Bathrobes make great gifts for anyone.

    I don't know where you can get robes monogramed, but I received on as bridesmaid gift and I absolutely loved it. I use mine almost everyday!

    SAME PROBLEM....SORT OF....

    I happened to be looking at some random photographers photos and saw a picture of the bridal party wearing the CUTEST ones! I am not a fan of having "BRIDESMAID" or "MAID OF HONOR" written largerly, as i want the girls to be able to wear and use these gifts years from now... however, it is VERY cute in the pictures to have BM and MOD and bride written! Also, not a fan of rhinestones on a robe, a little uncomfortable if on they are on the back, especially if they are silky/satin material, and you lay down. 

    Anyways, these ones have the girl's initials on the front, and in small print "BM" across the back of the robes sash you tie it with, and I'd get an extra ones for them to use after thats plain.. so years from now they can use it and not have "bridesmaid" written on it.

    PROBLEM.  i have no idea where to get these! They are perfect length, material..look comfortable- best I have seen yet. PLEASE let me know if you know what brand these are, or if you know a brand that is similar..i can always get plain ones that style, and get them embroidered at one of the stores around me!

    The robes can be view on this website that has TONS of great, unique, cute ideas for gifts, wedding ideas, picture idea... etc. To go to the website and view the pictures of the robe click here.

    If you want i really suggeted going to "steal this idea" on the website, VERY clever ideas! 

    Or you can just view the picture of them below (but u are missing out on some good ideas by not going to that website)...

    BTW.. my colors are purples (I'd get them lavendar), but I don't know how well me wearing a white robe mixed with airbrush makeup will look at the end of the day? SOO i actually saw a group where the bridal party was wearing white robes, and the brides was wearing coral (her wedding color). What do you think about that? I will be wearing white all day... why not change it up?

    I've got mine for my girls sitting in the wardrobe waiting til November! I got mine from a larger shopping centre near my house, there was a little store there that specialises in embroidering garments. I got the robes from them too - they had it all done in around an hour for 4. You can also look online. I got my girls fluffy chocolate brown ones with their names embroidered in baby pink on the breast. Very cute! Now I'm thinking I should have got one for myself! LOL

    basementbags.com will do it, you just have to mail them the robes and she'll mail them back to you.

    Look in your local yellow pages under "embroidery" and I'm sure there's a place near you. Otherwise, a local seamstress might do it. Or....if you live in a military town, there are about a million embroidery places just outside the base/fort.
