Gifts Nosotros Gave To Our Marriage Party, Parents + Each Other

This postal service starting fourth dimension started out every bit what I only got the girls inwards their larn ready bags, but as well as hence it turned into what nosotros also got our parents, as well as directly it also includes what nosotros got each other, hence truly this is only an all-encompassing postal service of every gift nosotros gave during the marriage ceremony lol. Enjoy!

For the Girls:

One of my primary goals throughout the gift-giving of the marriage ceremony (especially for my girls) was to give them things I own, love, as well as purpose often. Just similar alongside the bachelorette gifts and welcome bags for the marriage ceremony party, I wanted to larn them things I knew they would similar (and hopefully cherish as well as purpose after the wedding!).

My MOH was my sis as well as the solely truthful "bridesmaid" since she's the solely 1 who stood for me. But (I experience similar I've mentioned this 10000 times hence sad if you've heard it before!) since nosotros had a pocket-size marriage ceremony nosotros didn't produce our total party. If nosotros did, all the girls at the marriage ceremony would convey been standing alongside me, hence I only treated them every bit such!!

I did a postal service alongside Barrington and happened to purchase this cosmetic handbag to showcase. Little did I know at the fourth dimension I would go OBSESSED alongside it as well as purpose it literally every solar daytime for the side past times side two+ years... Makeup is bulky every bit hell, as well as I was never able to uncovering a cosmetic illustration that would lucifer everything. That is until this bag.

I can't fifty-fifty start to say you lot how much this handbag tin concur AND how sturdy the zipper (and entire case) is. Trust me, I fill upwards it past times the breaking point, as well as it has never allow me down. I knew that out of everything I wanted to give the girls at the wedding, it had to live this!

Going alongside the subject of getting them things they'd purpose forever... I wanted to each larn them something custom for them vs. getting everyone the same affair as well as hoping they dear it. That's some other argue why I loved this sentiment -- because I was able to customize each 1 for each daughter specific to their taste. I form of lucked out though that they had this impress (geometric) inwards hence many options -- truly only plenty for me to pick 1 out for each girl! It ended upwards beingness the perfect agency to give everyone their private gift but also making it convey a theme!

I was visiting my sis lastly weekend inwards Atlanta, as well as I saw she was using (and living out of lol) the cosmetic handbag only similar I do, as well as nosotros talked for similar five minutes most how much nosotros dear it, as well as it made me truly happy!

that is linked here)!! But only a quick advert + link for directly :) Oh! And hither is my kimono.

Dudley Stephens Tote, Waterbottle + Shawl c/o: The girls at Dudley Stephens totally surprised me alongside these gifts, as well as I was over the satelite alongside them! It worked out good that everyone got a handbag for their extra goodies as well as a H2O bottle for their room. But the BIG hitting was the shawls. They knew everyone would live wearing white, hence they sent us each a white fleece shawl. And WOW, it's fantastic.

It's super soft, only similar their fleece's, as well as it was SO WARM. We didn't demand them during the day, but they were truly amazing for our dinner since it was outside. All the girls were able to packet upwards underneath as well as kept warm without issue. Such a skilful gift -- peculiarly for the holidays! Add it to your list!!

Lisi Lerch Earrings c/o: Another amazing society I operate with, Lisi Lerch, has go 1 of my all-time favorite earring brands! They sent me a few for my wedding, as well as I asked if nosotros could larn some for the girls too. I had the girls article of apparel whatever they wanted to the marriage ceremony itself, but I also wanted to give them options inwards price of jewelry if they wanted something novel as well as fun to wear!

For the MOH/Best Man:

For my sister, I gave her her gift the nighttime earlier the wedding. She stayed alongside me inwards my room (just similar I did for her wedding), as well as nosotros were upwards belatedly talking as well as only doing sis stuff. So I decided it was the best minute to give her her gift as well as I ended upwards splurging a petty (but I dear her hence much!!) on a pair of Chanel earrings that she's wanted for so long. The await on her human face upwards when she opened the box made it all worth it. I don't intend she took them off the whole week!!

For John, Andrew's best man, he got him a truly prissy custom golf game handbag alongside his holler on it! He surprised him alongside it during a circular of golf game a few weeks prior.

For our parents: 

So I convey some photos from the photographer, but I didn't truly desire to part them hither every bit they're a fleck to a greater extent than personal to us as well as our parents aren't truly world people. I don't heed sharing my parents on hither every bit much, but I didn't desire to only throw upwards photos of my in-laws without them knowing. So instead, we're only going to part bullet points below!

Mom's PJ Set: These are pictured above! I knew they'd both live to a greater extent than comfortable inwards long sleeve sets, hence I constitute these from Target (was originally thinking these from Nordstrom, but my mom tried them on in-store as well as said they were hence hot!) as well as they were perfect.

My Mom: For our moms, nosotros wanted to larn them both something they could article of apparel to the wedding. And it worked out to larn jewelry -- specifically sapphire jewelry (to live inwards subject alongside my band as well as earrings) -- since both moms were wearing navy. As the big gift to the girls, I got them all lawn tennis bracelets (post most that at a afterward date), as well as I wanted to produce the same for the moms.

But both my mom as well as Andrews's mom already ain that, hence nosotros ran into a hiccup. Thankfully my mom has an all diamond bracelet, hence nosotros instead constitute her a sapphire bracelet as well as gave that to her for her present. She loved it, as well as the skilful intelligence is that she tin go past times it downwards to me whenever she wants lol.

My MIL: She, similar my mom, is a big jewelry person. She also loves sapphire (same) but has a sapphire engagement ring, earrings, as well as lawn tennis bracelet already, hence she was a petty to a greater extent than difficult. I had her exhibit me her collection (sneakily of course) a yoke months earlier the marriage ceremony as well as was quest some poignant questions. Turns out, she wasn't in love with her earrings, hence nosotros constitute a pair of the gorgeous tiered driblet earrings that she was able to article of apparel at the wedding.

My Dad: My dad is a big cyclist as well as hence nosotros ended upwards creating a custom bicycle jersey for him alongside our marriage ceremony impress on it. He's a hard 1 to store for, hence I intend nosotros form of nailed it. He ended upwards going for a ride roughly the isle the side past times side solar daytime as well as wore his jersey.

My FIL: We got him a novel iPad every bit he's been using his one-time 1 (from similar 2012) that only does non work. We express joy most it all the time, hence nosotros finally got him a novel 1 that he ended upwards using that nighttime to write the residual of his speech.

For Each Other: 

To Andrew: So Andrew's job solid unit of measurement has traced dorsum his dad's side to Gurnsey Island, as well as I thought, because it's us, to larn him a trip to Gurnsey. See, Andrew is non a stuff form of guy, hence buying presents for him -- peculiarly 1 this big -- is hard! He didn't desire whatever of the traditional stuff similar a scout or cufflinks, hence instead, I gave him the gift nosotros dear to give: travel.

I originally planned it New Years alongside some girlfriends of mine, but it wasn't until similar May of this twelvemonth that he mentioned Gurnsey was on his bucket list, but he would desire to go alongside his parents. So that weekend, I allow them inwards on the gift as well as asked them to bring together us. They were ecstatic as well as of course, said yes, hence we're looking to go side past times side May alongside his parents as well as sister. The gift itself was the airline tickets for the 2 of us as well as the hotel remain (which is our norm when nosotros give move -- non that anyone asked but only wanted to clear it upwards lol).

I truly gave his gift via a Jeopardy quiz I made alongside his sis as well as her husband. Andrew played that game piece I was getting ready, as well as the lastly question's response was Gurnsey. So 1 time he got it right, a banknote was passed to him from me that said what improve agency to go a LeRay as well as hence to go to where it all started. We're all truly excited most the trip!

To Me: Andrew, inwards return, got me a custom Lightship Basket. They are locally known to Nantucket, as well as nosotros were visiting the isle a few years dorsum as well as went to the Lightship Basket Museum 1 day, as well as I only roughshod inwards dear alongside their history as well as await as well as mentioned how I'd love to convey one, 1 day. They are normally passed downwards generation to generation but, hey! it has to start somewhere, right??

So he had 1 manus made for me as well as gave it to me clean, hence I would live able to custom blueprint the scrimshaw on the top as well as the nameplate inside. I intend we're going to produce a blueish as well as white ikon of the job solid nosotros got married in! I wanted it to live something unique as well as personal to our wedding, as well as this was the perfect gift!
