    So I bought these big totes from The Knot that I now need to fill because they are so big ;) -I made them pearl necklaces & bracelets which I'm putting in a pretty small jewelry box and then in the totes. And that's all I have so far.  I have an idea to purchase champagne splits & orange juice with a champagne glass that I decorate with my cricut vinyl or etch them - but that still leaves a lot of room.  Suggestions, ladies?!

    I think a photo frame with a picture of you and her is really cute!

    Definitely day-of goodies - like snacks, water bottles, bobby pins, blotting wipes, double-sided tape, safety pins, etc! Glow sticks could be fun for the reception - my friends love dancing with glow sticks. haha.

    Thanks for the ideas!

    @M.Ruder: I do love those hangers and I'm sure I can do them if I take the time, we'll see! Is that a picture of one you made or is that your inspiration?  If it's yours, it looks wonderful!!!

    I like the photo frame idea, and I actually thought about the flip-flops idea + a beach towel (a beach towel would take up room and thats a plus!)...Our reception is in a hotel on the beach so it's appropriate.  I'm just trying to not spend very much, as I am hoping to keep it under $40 per bridesmaid. So I'll have to do some cheap towel hunting! First stop: Marshalls!

    Any other ideas would be greatly appreciated :)

    I gave my BMs pashminas that I found at a local flea market that were pretty inexpensive.  They took up tote space and some of the girls used them when it got cooler at night.  I agree with others that some bottled water (or other favorite drink) and some snacks are good to give as well!

    I went to Shutterfly and made memory books using photos of us (my MOH and I have been friends for 30 years so that was super fun).  They are also getting their jewlery and a cute little handbag that's just for fun.  I'm most excited about giving them the photo books.
