    My MOH and her mother are hosting my bridal shower this upcoming weekend. I have no clue what is proper and what's not on giving them a Thank You for hosting. Do I get them a small gift as a thank you or do I just write them a thank you card and send it to them? Any insite and suggestions would be much appreciated. :)

    You can do something small and thoughtful. My MOH loves starbucks so I just gave her a book mark a starbucks card and a thank you card.

    I don't think  you have to give anything but its nice if you do. Don't get to crazy about it unless you want to.

    Thanks for the idea. My sister is working with her so I'll try and get the 2 of them something little as a thank you. I think they both love SBX so that's definitely a possibility. Thanks again :)

    I think it would great to get them a little something. My aunts hosted a shower for me, and in addition to a nice thank you note, I bought each of them a candle from Pottery Barn.

    I adore candles but personal tastes for scent can vary so much. If you know them and their tastes well enough, that's a totally cute idea!!!

     

    I had 8 hostesses (mostly friends of my FMIL) so I got them each a Vera Bradley umbrella with a little note saying (For your next shower...).

     

    Whatever you do, it's always nice to follow up with a personal, handwritten thank you note

     

    They'll love whatever you come up with :-)

    I use the initial mugs from Anthro alot and those are always a hit.

    ive also done a really nice flower arrangement to use at the shower

    my favorite cookbook with a set of really nice taper candles and pretty matches from anthro

    i just went to a house warming party and brought a bottle of sweet tea liquor in a really awesome glass pitcher from C&B, lemons from my tree, a handful of mint from the farmers market, and a great wooden spoon

    i always like to do complete packages of some sort, like a collection of little things that all go together.
