Hello bees, happy March! I have a question. Me and my girls all went bridesmaid dress shopping this weekend and decided that we would be using my aunt’s beach house in Florida she has generously offered us for the bachelorette weekend. Now the bchelor/bachelorette weekends will be happening in August when the wedding isn’t until November. Would it be inappropriate to give them their gifts at the weekend? I was thinking really cute monogrammed beach bags, a beach towel, and sun screen. I would also be presenting them with their jewlery and the day of emergency kit I wanted to put together. My Maid/Matron of Honor will be receiving another gift the day of/before the wedding (she has been my best friend since age two and literally been there for and through everything) but should I get the girls something small in addition to the bags? Or is this a really stupid idea and should I nix the whole thing and just get them something else and give it to them the day of the wedding. Any and all suggestions are welcome and I have a budget of $100 per girl.

No I don’t really think it’s approriate to give them their gifts there, becasue there will be other friends there who do not recieve gifts- I assume. (If this is not the case then go ahead). Personally however, I think you should try to choose the towels and bags to suit their tastes- not your wedding colors.

 

As for the day of kit, give it to them at rehersal dinner- afterall, its an emergency kit- not a “gift”.
