Planning your big day involves countless details, and it can be very overwhelming. That’s why having a reliable and trustworthy team that makes up your wedding party is essential for minimal wedding-planning stress!

And once it’s all done and dusted, and the lists have been ticked off, what better way to thank them than with a little memento of this special time in your lives. With loads of different ideas floating around online, we’ve put together a list of our favourite wedding party gifts to inspire you!

FOR THE GROOMSMEN
Funky socks
Bright, funky socks are a fun gift that groomsmen can wear on your wedding day and beyond, and they help add a pop of colour and personality to your photos. If ‘funky’ isn’t exactly your vibe, then opt for socks that match your wedding theme or colours.

Personalised hip flasks
Sophisticated – a customised hip flask is a classic and memorable choice. Fill them up with each groomsman’s favourite spirit for a toast whilst the gents are getting ready and have the photographer capture the moment of comradery.

Custom cufflinks
Elegant and timeless, custom cufflinks engraved with initials, wedding dates, or meaningful symbols add a touch of elegance to the wedding attire and can be worn long into the future. You’re welcome, lads!

FOR THE BRIDESMAIDS
Champagne flutes
If the groomsmen are getting hipflasks, the bridesmaids surely need champagne flutes! Customise each flute with your bridesmaid’s names, your wedding date, or a special message. These make super fun props for a celebratory toast during the bridal prep and can be used again during the reception.

Jewellery
A delicate piece of jewellery, such as a necklace or bracelet, is a timeless gift that can be worn on the wedding day and is a cherished memento of your special day. Choose matching pieces for all the bridesmaids or select individual styles to reflect your bridesmaid’s unique personalities.

Matching robes
Getting matching silk or satin robes for your bridal party really adds a touch of luxury to the pre-wedding preparations. They look absolutely gorgeous in bridal prep photos and are easy to remove after getting glammed up with hair and makeup. You can even take it a step further and have your bridesmaid’s names embroidered onto the back!

Choosing the right gifts for your wedding squad is a heartfelt way to show your gratitude and add an extra touch of personality to your big day. Just don’t forget to get an extra item for you and your partner so that you can match your groomsmen and bridesmaids!
