I’d Like To Know Where She Got Our Bridesmaid Gifts
I was one of the bridesmaids and my boyfriend was one of the groomsmen in our friends wedding ceremony. We were both really honored that they thought enough of us to include us in their special day. I remember when she started planning their wedding and reception, I thought she was gonna call it quits and just elope. She was going a little crazy trying to get it all together. There was just so much for her to take care of and even though she had help from her mom and sister, she still had a lot of decisions to make. I offered to do whatever she needed me to do, and the first thing she asked for is taking care of the invitations and making sure they all got mailed on time. I was glad to help out, she’s been a good friend for a long time and I could tell she was getting more and more nervous about this every day. Not really nervous about getting married, but more worried about everything getting done right. Like any bride, she wanted everything to be perfect.
She got to the point that she would call me every day or two and ask my advice on accessories, table settings, and more. She even wanted to know what I thought would be appropriate bridesmaid gifts for all of us. That was a little awkward. I just told her to use her best judgement and I’m sure she can choose the perfect little gifts. But I did advise her not to be extravagant, I know how costly weddings and receptions can be.
She showed me the beautiful cake and cake topper she had chosen and they were exquisite. The wedding cake topper was a romantic heart topper with the bride and groom in the center and flowers all around it. Her champagne flutes were gorgeous crystal and had bride and groom printed on them, she also picked out adorable little place card holders that she was able to use as wedding favors for all of her guests. So far, she was doing a fantastic job planning this affair. Her fiance took care of all the guy stuff. Gifts for the groomsmen, best man, the ring boy and both of their dads. She found lovely gifts for the mothers of the bride and groom, the flower girl and her maid of honor. But she was still worried about the bridesmaids gifts. I told her to just pick out something that she would buy for herself. Something that she would like to receive as a gift and I’m sure it will be just fine. So that’s what she did.
At the reception everyone was laughing and dancing and having a fantastic time. All of the guests complimented her on how lovely she looked and what a super job she did on planning the wedding and reception. Everything was great, from the centerpieces to the wedding favors. I knew she could pull this off, especially with her mom and sister helping her out. As far as the gifts for the bridesmaids, they were spectacular. You could tell these weren’t cheap bridesmaid gifts, at least that’s what I thought at the time. She later confided in me that she bought almost everything for her ceremony and reception wholesale. She said they have everything you need for the perfect wedding and reception and it didn’t cost her anywhere close to what she thought it would. But there’s just one more thing I want to know; where did she buy my bridesmaid gift, because I’d like to get a couple more for my living room.
