Your wedding party plays a huge role in making your big-day celebration unforgettable. From the flower girls’ adorable procession down the aisle to the maid of honor’s touching speech, each member infuses love, care, and personality into your wedding as they fulfill their roles. Not only do these special people enhance the day itself, but they also provide endless assistance and support in the months leading up to it: Bridesmaids and groomsmen usually spend time and money organizing and attending the pre-wedding festivities, and parents and in-laws tend to tackle many tasks on the couple’s to-do list, while picking up a few tabs.
Case in point? Your wedding party goes above and beyond to make you feel celebrated before and during your big day. To return the favor, gifts are in order. There’s no better way to thank your loved ones for all they’ve done (and all they continue to do) and express your appreciation than by giving them a thoughtful present. Whether it’s monogrammed bracelets for your bridesmaids, an aromatic shampoo set for your ring bearer, or a bottle of wine for your in-laws, picking out an item that caters to each person's style, interests, and preferences will effectively show your gratitude to your group.
Wondering what to buy? Below, the Brides editorial team has provided their favorite wedding party gifts, whether it’s for your maid of honor, bridesmaids, best man, groomsmen, flower girls, ring bearers, parents, or in-laws. Keep scrolling to start shopping.
“If you're looking for the perfect present for your flower girl or ring bearer, look no further than Tubby Todd. Their bundles come with everything your favorite littles need for bathtime fun, and their parents will appreciate the clean, gentle formulas and incredible scents.” — Gabriella Rello Duffy, Senior Editorial Director
“I recently started carrying around a tiny canvas tote bag instead of a purse and am constantly stopped by strangers asking where I got it. Who knew it'd be such a hit? I also think it's the perfect vessel for any gift you decide to give your wedding party on the big day. This iteration from Lands' End is gender-neutral, monogrammable, and perfectly petite; it'll fit a mini bottle of a bubbly, a sweet piece of jewelry, and a heartfelt thank-you note, or any other small-scale gift you have planned for them. The mini size also makes it great for flower girls or ring bearers!” — Sarah Schreiber, Associate Editorial Director
“If you’re looking for a thoughtful gift for your bridesmaids, consider gifting them a pendant necklace engraved with their astrology sign. Picking out a present that reflects each individual and their unique background goes the extra mile, which is the best way to showcase your appreciation and gratitude. These pieces of jewelry from Mejuri, which feature gold vermeil plating and sparkly gemstones, are high quality and versatile.” — Lilly Blomquist, Associate Editor
“Korean skincare has been all the rage this year. Check out this highly coveted Mediheal Ampoule Face Mask that is full of hyaluronic acids and minerals to ensure your wedding party is glowing on your big day. Plus, a self-care moment is a beautiful way to enjoy the calm before the storm with your loved ones.” — Essence Wiley, Editorial Intern
“Your wedding party might be craving a moment of stillness after your event. Give them a safe (and chic) place to land with Alo Yoga’s Warrior Mat. I love this yoga mat because it is luxurious, cushioned for joint support, and slip-free. It creates the perfect space to take a breather.” — Star Donaldson, Social Media Director
“Bouquets don't have to be the only flowers your bridal party gets on your wedding day. Enter: a custom Venus Et Fleur mini letterbox. Personalize it by picking their initial and a rose that symbolizes their personality—blush for elegance, deep blue for loyalty, and more. These will last long after the big day and turn into the prettiest home décor.” — Araziel Jackson, Social Media Editor
“Stoney Clover Lane pouches come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, making them the perfect gift for truly anyone. In addition to its pre-designed bags and accessories, people also love the brand for its customizable pouches. Whether it's for bridesmaids, groomsmen, or flower girls and ring bearers, SCL's large pouch will be a much-appreciated and well-used accessory.” — Samantha Brash, Director of Content Strategy
“Dry Creek Vineyard’s Dry Chenin Blanc is the perfect bottle to say ‘Thank you’ to the people who showed up for you on your wedding day. You can gift this bottle to your wedding party or your in-laws. Its fruity-yet-crisp flavor will satisfy everyone’s needs.” — Kelly Chiello, Associate Photo Director
“The ultimate gift for the parents in your life? This beautiful frame, which also doubles as a speaker. Print out a brand-new wedding photo (or a set of your favorites so they can swap them in and out) and give them to your parents along with the frame. They'll enjoy remembering the special day to the sound of their favorite tunes or meaningful music choices from your big day. As your family grows and changes, they can easily swap out the photo. It's a great way to keep special memories on display.” — Gabriella Rello Duffy, Senior Editorial Director
"If you're looking for a really nice thank-you present for your maid of honor—or your exceptionally cool mom or mother-in-law—put a pair of these beauties from City Boots in her closet. The brand, helmed by founder Lizzy Chesnut Bentley, is known for their high-quality, ultra-chic, city-meets-country leather boots in a rainbow of colors (some are even emblazoned with fun designs, from hearts and flowers to lightening bolts) and sleek silhouettes. A sweet pink pair of ankle-length booties feels just right for your bubbly right-hand woman, but you can take your pick and choose a style that best suits her personality (if she's adventurous, go for these kelly green ones). While you're at it, invest in a white or blue pair for yourself for your reception or after-party." — Sarah Schreiber, Associate Editorial Director
“Pieces of jewelry marked with your bridesmaids’ first initials are touching, special gifts to give your crew. This monogrammed chain-link bracelet from GLDN is a stunning option. A huge selling point is the ability to customize each design: You can choose from a series of metals and sizes, and you can also add an illustration or short inscription that represents each loved one.” — Lilly Blomquist, Associate Editor
“Infused with bright bergamot, peach fizz, and creamy woods, this scent is literally a party in a candle. If you'd like to give your wedding party a gift to remember your big celebration by, this is the one for you. Forvr Mood is black- and woman-owned, and it offers unique scents that can consume your space.” — Essence Wiley, Editorial Intern
“It's no secret that shells are the standout accessory motif of summer 2024. If you (and your bridesmaids) love them as much as I do, you might want to consider putting this chic jaw clip on their gift list. It's impossibly stylish (of course it is, it's Jennifer Behr!), easy to wear, and keeps hair off their napes in this unbearable summer heat. They'll break it out on your wedding weekend and beyond, I guarantee it!” — Sarah Schreiber, Associate Editorial Director
“There’s nothing like a personalized gift to make your wedding party feel special. This Zodiac Journal from Inside Then Out is a gift that your wedding party will use for months to come. The journal is minimalist with the name of each zodiac printed on the black cover, perfect for anyone in your party. My favorite part is that each journal comes with unique prompts that help inspire each sign to dig a little bit deeper.” — Star Donaldson, Social Media Director
“If you want to gift your wedding party a comfy set, look no further than Cozy Earth's CityScape set. With 10 colorways (the lemonade is particularly my favorite), there is shade for everyone in your crew. Whether for your bachelorette party or getting-ready outfits, they'll want to wear this ultra-soft sweatshirt and sweatpants—or you can swap it for matching shorts—every day.” — Araziel Jackson, Social Media Editor
“A really special way to say ‘thank you’ to your bridal party would be with a Jo Malone perfume. One of their most popular scents, English Pear and Freesia, would complement anyone and is described as the ‘essence of autumn.’ It’s such a classic, luscious olfactory treat.” — Kelly Chiello, Associate Photo Director
“Pajamas are a classic bridesmaid gift for a reason: Not only is it something your friends and family members will always need and use, it also takes all the guesswork out of getting-ready outfits—on the big day, your group can slip into the matching sets you've already given them for perfectly coordinated photos. Piglet in Bed's updated silhouette (I love the oversized top) and gorgeous linen fabrication make these PJs a little more elevated than their classic cotton counterparts.” — Gabriella Rello Duffy, Senior Editorial Director
“A gorgeous piece of jewelry always makes a great wedding party gift, but this Love Saro necklace is more than just a stunning statement piece. Each necklace in the Love Saro Goddess Collection is made with gems and beads that are meant to instill energy into the wearer. The pearl pendant is meant to give a calming, protective, and strengthening effect on the wearer, and the red agate beads are for emotional stability and self-reliance.” — Star Donaldson, Social Media Director
