Wedding planning: Gifts for bridesmaids

Now that I’m planning my own wedding, I have bridesmaids to shop for! The ladies standing by me on my wedding day are my cousin and my best friend from college (we met in 2002, so by the time I get hitched, we’ll have been friends for almost half our lives!). Yes, I’m only having two bridesmaids — I wanted to keep it intimate!

I really want a great way to say “thank you” to them for being so important to me and for helping me prep for the big day, and I thought something personalized would be a great addition to a gift for them (along with at least a bottle of wine, of course).

When Bridesmaids Gifts Boutique reached out, I KNEW that the Maddison makeup bag was a great choice. In order to “test drive” it for my bridesmaids, I ordered one for myself first, and I’m in LOVE.

It’s the perfect size for my everyday makeup needs, the velvet is so soft, and the monogram makes it feel special.

Now I just have to decide on which color to buy for my bestie and my cousin!

Disclosure: I received a complimentary makeup bag from Bridesmaids Gifts Boutique in order to share my honest opinion about their products. This is not a sponsored post.
