Wedding season is in full swing, and with that comes all of the festive pre-wedding celebrations. The bridal shower, for instance, is one event that every bride looks forward to. But if you’re like me and your calendar is already packed with summer weddings and social gatherings, then you might find yourself scrambling for a last-minute gift. Trust me, I get it!
The good news is that I’ve got your back. As a shopping editor—and a late 20-something with countless weddings to attend—I know that there are plenty of worthy bridal shower gifts online that will ship fast and save you time (and stress). So, what’s my secret? Shopping from Amazon, which actually has an extensive library of thoughtful, stylish, and themed bridal products. And with Amazon Prime Day underway, you can snag them for up to 40 percent off.
From beauty must-haves to wedding accessories and lingerie for the blushing bride, the Prime Day Sale—which runs from July 11 to July 12—is chock full of shower gifts the bride is sure to love. Read on for a few of my top picks.
