Apparently I don’t want to study so here goes another poll. Which gift would you prefer as a bridesmaid? I won’t make them use/wear the gift the day of the wedding, but would give them the option to if they want. They will be wearing all different long chiffon bari jay dresses in wisteria. here is one example:
and here are the gift options:
#1: Earrings from kendra scott
#2: The Alexis Clutch
#3: Purple Flower Clutch
#4: I can pick multiple different fabrics to make everyone a unique clutch:

I think one of the clutches would be a fantastic gift! I voted for using different fabrics to give each Bridesmaid or Best Man a unique clutch, but I also really love the Alexis clutch. It’s so beautiful!

I like the clutch idea, I would try to think of each of the BMs personalities and their personal style and match the design to that 🙂 cute gifts!

@hopefloats: I’m a little nervous only because I have 8 bridesmaids….so I worry that if I do unique for each person they won’t all like the ones they get…

I really like those earrings, but they definitely would not be everyone’s taste.

I love the purple flower clutch. I think the colors are great and you could wear it with a lot of different outfits!

I’d prefer the earrings. I wouldn’t want a clutch just because I’m super picky about my purses. I’d prob use it as a make-up bag after the wedding.

I would prefer either of the clutches over the other choices; however, I probably wouldn’t use them after the wedding.

i love the clutches! I can’t pick a favorite. Maybe different clutches for each girl? They are all so cute!

@noritake22: could you show me what you would use after the wedding? I’m pretty lost at what I can get a group of 8 girls that would work somehow for at least most of them…

@agerard23: I would use a pashmina more than anything and you could personalize these particular ones. A pashmina is something that can be used during any season, so I think it would be more practical.

@noritake22: ditto.
I love the earrings, but my ears don’t always love the earrings I like. If they’re too heavy, they hurt my ears!
The clutches are nice but I’m not sure I’d use them again. I’d probably use a neutral-colored clutch for a formal event, but only if it were neutral enough to go with the formal gowns I have. (Currently a deep purple, black, and green gown…hoping to get a red or teal in the furture… so it’d have to be a white, silver, or ivory to go with the three I have and one of my future color choices…)
