Mrs. Hippo, New York City/Dallas, TX Age and Occupation: 34, Event Planner for a Non-Profit Fiance's Age and Occupation: 35, Finance IT Engagement Date: August 8, 2009 Wedding Date: March 2011 Venue: Samuel Lynne Galleries and Marc Events About Me: I’m a thirty-something bride living in New York City and planning a modern-ish wedding in Dallas, Texas. I love trashy reality television (Jersey Shore, anyone?), online shopping, Sunday brunch, Central Park, and random celebrity spottings on the streets of Manhattan. While I love NYC, I miss good Tex-Mex, my college friends, central A/C, and being in close proximity to a Target. I’m thrilled to finally be planning an event that’s not work-related and to be marrying my best friend in what I hope will be a unique and personal ceremony followed by a reception with plenty of good food, good drinks, and dancing (regardless if it’s good or not).

Gifts for the Girls - Part 2

March 16th, 2011 @ 12:13 pm by Mrs. Hippo

I have several miscellaneous gifts for the ladies in my bridal party, but the one that I love the most is this…

Gifts for the Girls - Part 2 :  wedding bridesmaid gift dallas gift ideas 110 1


For the bridesmaids and house party ladies, I ordered this plate from Etsy seller cherman47.

It reads, “Every woman needs one perfect little black dress… and one friend she can talk to about anything.” On the back of the plate, it says, “I still haven’t found the dress.” It also has my first name and wedding date on the back of the plate. I had the seller change “one friend” to “friends” since I’m giving them out to several people at the same time. Cute, right? I’m also hoping to find some plate hangers, so that the ladies can display the plate on a wall if they wish.

This is just one of a couple of things that I’m gifting the ladies with, but to be honest, I don’t think that anything is enough for them. I mean, these are my girls! I’ve known them each for many, many years. I don’t know that there’s anything that I can buy (or afford) to show them how much I love and appreciate their love and support over the years. I wish that there was… but there isn’t.

Do you feel the same way about your bridal party gifts? Any ideas for making them feel extra special that money can’t buy?

that is such a cute plate! I feel the exact same way about my ladies.. everytime I go into a store now I find something that I want to buy for one (or all!) of them because they just can’t know how thankful and grateful I am for all their help!

Mine are my sisters. I don’t know what I could give them that would show how much I appreciate them. I mean, I upgraded my phone minutes to ‘unlimited’ because I call them so much!!! I love the plate Ms. Hippo and I’m sure your friends will too.

Those are perfect presents! In all honesty, the best way to “repay” them is to be the best friend to them you possibly can be. But those plates… Those are a close second :-)
