Personalized Bridal Shower Gifts
Personalized
gifts are great for any occasion. Personalizing a gift
shows that you care and is a fun way to show how special the
recipient
is. Personalized gifts are unique in there own way and there
are many ways to personalize a gift. Personalized does not
just mean you had someone’s name or initials on the gift. You
can make a gift personal by adding a photo or a special phrase.
The personal touch could just be that you hand made the item
or get a gift that is symbolic of a special event or time in
the recipient’s life or future. Giving a personalized gift
for a bridal shower is a wonderful way to welcome the newlyweds
into this world. Personalizing a gift meant for the bride to
be is great especially if it is using her new last name or
initials. This article will cover just a few tried and true
bridal shower gifts that are perfect for personalization.
Lingerie is a great gift that the bride to
be will love and is sure to please the groom to be as well!
Have the lingerie
personalized with the bride’s new initials or a special phrase
that will mean something special to the couple. Bathrobes for
the couple can be personalized with the usual names but what
about something that indicates they are newly weds, perhaps
a cute little drawing done by you the gift giver? Maybe you
could write a poem to the special couple. Pajamas are another
wonderful little gift that can be personalized with a unique
appliqué, a set of wedding rings or a bride and groom
having their first kiss along with the wedding date of the
couple to be.
Candles symbolizing the colors of milestone anniversaries
are another way to give a personal touch to a wedding shower
gift. For example buy a bunch of candles in a variety of colors
and write a special instruction sheet to accompany them. The
instructions could include things such as a color chart and
a timeline for burning, such as, “Red is for passion, burn
these on your first night together.” Wine glasses and
picture frames are another great gift that can be personalized with
the wedding date or couple’s name. In the picture frame you
could also add a picture of you and the bride to be or a picture
of the happy couple. A welcome mat with the bride and groom’s
new shared last name would be a great idea for a gift that
could be given at a party focused on the bride and groom to
be.
If you are a crafty
person the possibilities for a personalized
gift are endless. Just knowing that you crafted the gift yourself
will tell the bride to be that you care enough to make a personal
gift just for her. As a hostess of a bridal shower you could
purchase a scrapbook and pages to go in it. Send the pages
to each of the guests and ask them to create a page just for
the bride to be. When they come to the bridal shower they can
place the pages into the scrapbook and the bride to be will
have a memory of all of her friends and family that made the
pages. Another personal gift that the guests at the bridal
could all contribute to is a cutting board signed and personalized
with little messages by all the bridal shower guests. After
everyone has signed the cutting board you may want to put a
clear coat on it to protect it but the bride to be will probably
just display the cutting board in her new kitchen. If you are
a hobbyist craft painter maybe you would want to paint a mailbox
for the bride and groom to be. You could paint on their house
numbers, shared last name, or get creative and maybe paint
it with the couple’s wedding color and they could use it for
cards at the wedding reception.
Personalized bridal shower gifts are a great idea and can
really show the bride and groom to be how special they are
to you. No matter what gift you give remember that it is not
the gift that counts but the thought you put into it. Try to
get the couple or bride to be something that has a purpose.
