The Best Bridesmaid Gifts That Your Bridal Party Will Love
Our Picks for the Best Bridesmaid Gifts
Congratulations! You’re engaged! While the bliss of your new soon-to-be marital status settles, it’s time to start piecing together your ideal wedding day.
Your Bridal Party is a special element to almost any wedding. It’s a selection of your nearest and dearest who you hand chose to be with you on your big day! While not every Bride chooses to have bridesmaids or a wedding party, the work they do behind the scenes for you (whether they are involved in the wedding planning, or just there for emotional support) should not go unnoticed. What better way to show your love for them, than by some unique and fun bridesmaid gifts?
Many brides choose to make their bridesmaids’ experiences special. They might do a bridesmaid proposal, treat their bridal party to a fun and exclusive event, or even just shower them in fun, bridal party gifts. While bridesmaid gifts are certainly not compulsory, it shows those you are closest to just how much you love and admire them.
So, if you like the idea of giving your bridesmaids a special little “thank you”, but are unsure where to start, we are sharing our top Bridesmaid Gift Ideas (in Australia) that will make your wedding planning a lot easier!
Mia and Talbot are a beautiful small business based out of Ballarat. We are obsessed with their candles and the beautiful scents they have. If you are looking for a smaller gift that doesn’t break the budget, you cannot go past a custom candle!
Whether it is a bridesmaid’s proposal gift, or just a thank you for your bridesmaids’ hard work, Mia and Talbot have you covered!

For your Bridal Party who loves to sip on extraordinary mixes.
For the days when a good tea or coffee just wont do, or for your bridal party who appreciates a well crafted liquor, then you must check out Archie Rose’s range of tailored spirits. Choose from Gin, Vodka, Whiskey or a Bottled Cocktail and showcase your individual expression with a custom liquor chosen just for your amazing bridal party.
We have loved playing with the amazing ways you can tailor your drinks. With the ability to create your own label, you can really make this bottle a special one for years to come. Then, when your bridal party is done drinking their own personal liquor, they can use the stunning bottles as decoration, or vases for small water plants or flowers! Such an amazing bridesmaid gift idea!
A perfect gift that will last forever (or until they kill it)
Sometimes, the best gift is one that will keep on giving! Especially if your bridesmaids appreciate a little bit of extra home décor! We love this out of the box idea to use as a bridesmaid proposal! Simply add in a fancy garden marker and it becomes a memory that will last forever – or at least until they forget to water it!
If your Bridal Party is known to quickly end the life of any plant that enters their care, you might also like the option of a succulent bowl instead!
If you are looking to gift your bridesmaids an experience rather than something physical, and you know that you and your team loves all things creative, then go no further than Pinot and Picasso’s fabulous private functions!
With sessions like ‘Paint the Bride’ and with custom artworks and *cough* semi clothed waiters available at additional costs, it is sure to be a night to remember. If a private function is not your thing, you and your bridesmaids can book into one of many locations throughout Australia for a general open class! The possibilities really are endless!
A personalised cheese board is the perfect gift for your bridal party who loves to entertain (or consume an entire charcuterie board for dinner – we all have done it, don’t lie).
These boards are handmade in the Gold Coast with responsibly sourced and locally grown Camphor Laurel, which is naturally antibacterial! You could use this stunning cheeseboard as part of a larger gift or own its own! Either way, we know your bridesmaids, bridesmen and all other bridespeople will love it!
If your bridal party loves their cheese so much, then why not surprise them with this Cheese Making Course in Rosebery NSW? This course teaches you to make 1 kilo of burrata and bocconcini to take home with you! Plus, you can enjoy bottomless bubbles throughout the class!

You can view Megan Morimoto’s full range of shoes here, as well as their full range of embellishments as well.
For that little cherry on top of your gorgeous wedding styling, we love adding a personalised engraved hanger for your bridal party. These gifts are great for the entire bridal party of all genders! You can customise the font, names and even add your wedding date to the hanger! It will also allow your bridal party to store their outfits forever on a keepsake that will always remind them of your special day!
What better way to show your love and appreciation for all your bridal party than by compiling a beautiful photobook of your favourite memories together? You can make multiple copies of one photobook for all your bridesmaids, or take it a step further by making individual memory books!

FAQs for Karen Willis Holmes’ Best Bridesmaid Gifts Page
What are the top bridesmaid gift ideas that will be adored by any bridal party?
Finding the perfect bridesmaid gifts is a great way to express gratitude to your bridal party for their support and involvement. From personalised keepsakes to luxurious treats, there are numerous options that will delight any bridesmaid. Consider elegant jewellery pieces like engraved necklaces or bracelets, practical yet stylish accessories such as monogrammed tote bags or silk robes, or indulgent treats like scented candles or spa gift sets. Personalised items, such as custom-made photo frames or engraved wine glasses, add a special touch to your gesture. Whatever you choose, selecting gifts that reflect your gratitude and the unique personalities of your bridesmaids will make them feel cherished and valued.
How to choose the right gift for bridesmaids?
Selecting the perfect gift for bridesmaids involves considering their tastes and interests. Personalised items, such as engraved jewellery or monogrammed accessories, can add a special touch. Practical gifts like spa vouchers or skincare sets offer relaxation and pampering. Consider their hobbies or favourite activities for inspiration, such as books, wine, or workout gear. Additionally, keepsakes like photo frames or custom artwork can create lasting memories. Ultimately, the key is to choose a thoughtful gift that shows appreciation for their support and celebrates your friendship.
Are there bridesmaids gift suggestions for different interests?
When it comes to bridesmaids gifts, there are options to suit various interests. For the fashion-forward bridesmaid, consider personalised jewellery or stylish accessories. Those who enjoy self-care might appreciate spa kits or scented candles. For the avid traveller, a chic passport holder or luggage tag could be ideal. If your bridesmaid loves cooking, a cookbook featuring gourmet recipes could be perfect. For the eco-conscious, consider sustainable or handmade items. Personalising gifts based on individual interests shows thoughtfulness and appreciation for their unique qualities.
What are some ideas for physical gifts and experience-based presents for bridesmaids?
When it comes to gifts for bridesmaids, there’s a range of options to consider. For physical gifts, personalised jewellery, custom robes, or monogrammed tote bags are popular choices. Experience-based presents like spa days, wine tasting tours, or tickets to a concert or show offer memorable moments. Alternatively, consider a combination of both, such as a personalised gift box containing a mix of items like skincare products, candles, and a gift card for a local experience.
Where can I look for inspiration for bridesmaid gift ideas?
When seeking inspiration for bridesmaid gift ideas, various sources can spark creativity. Explore online platforms like Pinterest, where you’ll find countless boards dedicated to wedding planning and gift suggestions. Wedding magazines and blogs often feature curated lists of thoughtful gift ideas. Additionally, browsing through boutique shops and local craft markets can uncover unique and personalised gifts. Don’t forget to consider your bridesmaids’ individual interests and preferences when selecting the perfect present.
