For The Guys

Since I covered what we got the girls for thank you gifts, I figured it’s only right to share what the guys got.  First up…

What’s in the box?

Oh you know… a tie.  We picked out these bad boys because they are what the guys wore for the wedding.  We figured we would foot the bill for them and make it part of their gift.

Next, Justin found these monogrammed wallets…

I think these were a great choice and I hope the guys loved them!

They also each got a golf multi tool, because you know all men need one of those!

And the whole shebang…

Justin picked out all of these things on his own, so no references on where they came from.  Sorry friends.  I did however get to wrap them up!

Look familar?  I wanted them to match the bridesmaids a bit, but different still.  Make sense?

Boom!  Wedding party gifts done!

For the Girls

Were you wondering what I got my bridesmaids?  Thought so.  Since I love and appreciate my friends and sister so very much I wanted to get them some things that tickle their fancies.

So what do you do when you need some badass gift ideas?  Etsy.  I know it’s an addiction, but there is so much greatness to be found on etsy.

First up I was thinking some sort of bag/purse would be a contender.  Here are the few that I narrowed it down to…

These are from a shop called JuneberryStitches.  Those colorful floral fabrics used to create the names combined with the simple burlap bag and you can call me a fan.

While still browsing in JuneberryStitches shop I came across these…

Now those are my jam and I thought my sister would dig them too.

Lastly, I stumbled upon these…

I found these in a shop called GeauxMelange.  I loved the little leaf on these and of course the embroidered name.

Finally I decided I wanted to purchase from JuneberryStitches.  I ended up getting a couple of the bags with the doilies for my sister and I. I thought my other two friends wouldn’t be as excited about the doily bag as us so I picked out a couple of this style for them…

Here are the colors I went with…

I am so happy with them!  And as you can see I got one extra, that would be for me!  Couldn’t resist.  This seller did an amazing job, she was so quick responding to my questions and shipping, and the bags are great quality to boot.  Go buy one!

Next I knew I wanted to get some piece of jewelry for each of them.  I really enjoyed these…

Found em’ in a shop called tyrahandmadejewelry.  I honestly would have gotten them, but one of my friends had purchased something similar for her bridesmaids, and my sister just so happened to be in that wedding.  So I nixed these and decided to go with an Alex and Ani bracelet instead…

I went with these for my friends and this one for my sister…

I knew she would love it.

While browsing at anthropologie one day I came across these…

Thought they would be a cool gift that the girls could use to hold jewelry or little odds and ends.

Lastly, they all got a little monogrammed notebook.

Here is the whole shebang…

I did end up getting my sister one last thing…

This adorable little tea cup.  It is an antique I found in a shop in Daytona Beach.  I love that it looks like it could have been bought at anthropologie, but it is 80 years old.  I only got one for my sister because I didn’t think it would be my other friends cup of tea(pun intended).

So here are Jessica’s goodies…

I hope they loved them as much as I do.

I also figured I would share how I wrapped them up while I am at it…

Yup, those are little chalkboard tags.  More to come on things for the guys tomorrow.
