Wedding Wednesday - Bridesmaid Gift Ideas (+ a giveaway)

Happy Wedding Wednesday ladies!

One of the challenges that brides often face is what to buy their lovely bridesmaids. Bridesmaids put in a lot of hours, money, and patience (think bridezillas), and therefore deserve a thoughtful gift they'll love. However, it can be difficult for a bride to find a truly great, original gift that doesn't break the bank.

Enter one of our fave all-things-personalized stores, Marley Lilly to the rescue!

Marley Lilly is amazing not only because of their ENORMOUS selection of cute, personalized gifts, but it is also one of our faves because it's owned and operated by a fellow Clemson Girl...which means the rest of us Clemson Girls benefit in that she is bias towards finding all things orange and purple. :)

Marley Lilly has a ton of gift ideas for your bridesmaids, available in a variety of colors so you can match your wedding colors perfectly...or buy each girl a gift in colors to match her alma mater.

In fact, you can pretty much scratch off your entire wedding party gift list by shopping Marley Lilly - monogrammed handkerchiefs for the dads, personalized jewelry boxes for the moms, a fun monogrammed bag for your flower girl...they even have a nice selection of unique gifts for your groom-to-be to purchase for his groomsmen.

You could even buy your entire wedding party monogrammed koozies in matching colors...

One of our fave Marley Lilly bridesmaid gift ideas are these monogrammed hats - how fun for each of your ladies to have a personalized hat. It makes for great pictures! And to make it even sweeter, Marley Lilly offers a free hat with the purchase of 7 hats!

Having a Fall/Winter wedding? Another great bridesmaid gift idea is to give your ladies each a monogrammed scarf. Buy them in their school colors and they will love wearing them all throughout football season. Buy seven monogrammed scarves on Marley Lilly and get the eighth free!

However, we're not sure that the other gifts can top this one - check out one of Marley Lilly's newest items - the monogrammed luxe cross body clutch! Available in 11 colors with an even bigger selection of thread colors! Of course we are partial to the orange - especially since it has purple trim on the edges. And it looks especially cute with the white monogram! These would be super cute for bridesmaid gifts - perfect for your ladies to carry to the reception.
