Unique bridesmaids, flower girl and ring bearer gifts and groom!!?

I am looking for unique gift ideas for my wedding party my main problem is that they are all truly unique and I want to give them a gift that is unique but also somewhat traditional.


MOH- Mother of 2 one on the way; well to do


BM 1 - Mother of 2; not very well off


BM 2 - Young, just bought a house, single - first time in wedding


BM 3 - Young, in college, living at home- first time in wedding





Flower girl - 2 yrs., my only niece right now


Ring bearers - 3 and 4 yrs old; nephews; interested in different things.





Now for the hardest part the groom. He doesn't want me to spend money on him b/c we are building a house and will be putting a lot into that, but I really want him to have something that will last forever!


If you need more details let me know.

I htink if you truly want to make them uniqeu this is a question only you can answer because we dont know them.





But I will take a stab at a few of them.


MOH: get a printed book of photos of you and the groom as kids, while dating and of your wedding printed in a photo book (kodak makes nice ones for about $60)





BM1: Spa certificate, as a mother of two and not being well off most likely she doesnt get a chance to pamper herself much





BM2: A nice framed picture of you and her that she can display in her new home





BM3: A interesting purse or accesory that reminds you of her





Flower Girl: At 2 its hard to say but maybe a box of dress up clothes from the disney store, little girls love dress up





Ring Bearers: Each likes different things and we dont know what those things are, get them each a toy that represents what they like toy truck, soccer ball, paint sets whatever





Groom: Depends on how much you want to spend. Engraved cufflinks with your wedding date, a boudior photo session (he will definaltey like that), this may sounds strange but if he is a nature lover get him a baby tree that you can plant at your new home and every year you can see it grow...
Reply:How much would you want to spend on the gifts, excluding the groom as that is a different case alltogether?
Reply:Okay, let me think on this one for a minute.


So for my bridesmaids, who are all different, I am doing tote bags. You can spend as little or as much as you want. For mine I bought tote bags in there fave colors that have cute designs (stripes, polka dots, flowers). Some of the things that are going in are the same, such as flip flops for the reception, bottled water and some snacks for that day, their jewelry for the wedding day (told them not to wear any, so the jewelry is a surprise. I went and made it a bead store, they help you make it.), bath salts are going in the bag, some lotion and a couple of other things. Then since all of their interests range I bought them all something that only they would like to go in the bag. My flower girl is also my niece, she is almost 4, so older than yours, I'm getting her a necklace, one like I have that she likes and says she wants when she gets big (LOL). Ummmm, for a two year, it's hard to get something that will be lasting for her, so just something age appropriate, a toy maybe? and something that she could have when she is older, like maybe, an engraved picture frame that her flower girl picture from the wedding could go in later. Ring bearers...get them something that they will be interested in and just like for the flower girl something they can have when they are older. Most gifts, young children won't much care about unless it is appropriate for their age and what they are in to. Traditional gifts for a groom are a watch or a pocket watch that engraved with something by you and the wedding date.
Reply:Honestly, a nice picture of you and the groom shouldn't be what you give your wedding party as gifts. Maybe you could go shopping with them and pick out the jewelery that the bridesmaids will be wearing, and then give it to them. Or, since your bridesmaids are in all different financial situations you could try getting them something that is useful to them. I'm sorry, I have no idea what to tell you. Go to a spa and get your nails done and such, and you pick up the tab... i'm sure everyone would like that.
