Bride’s Guide to Taking Care of Your Wedding Party

Your wedding party is made up of the people who have supported you through so many important moments–childhood best friends, college roommates, sisters, cousins, etcOne of the sweetest ways to honor them and thank them for being a part of this chapter of your life is by adding thoughtful touches throughout your wedding journey. Here are a few simple ways to make them feel loved and appreciated.

1. Custom gifts for your bridesmaid proposal

Personalized gifts always feel more meaningful. Think monogrammed items, initials on jewelry, or gifts they can use while getting ready such as hairbrushes, makeup bags, or compact mirrors. These small custom touches remind your wedding party how special they are to you.

2. Professional makeup artist option

Offering your bridesmaids the opportunity to have their makeup professionally done takes pressure off of them and helps everyone feel confident in walking down the aisle and taking photos. Even making it an optional add-on shows that you care about their comfort and experience.

3. Custom accessories

Whether it is matching earrings, hair pieces, or coordinated details for the ceremony, custom accessories help tie the bridal party together while giving them something they can keep long after the wedding day.

4. Matching pajamas or getting ready outfits

Cute, cozy matching pajamas or robes make the getting ready process feel fun and cohesive! They also look beautiful in photos and become a meaningful keepsake from the day. And, who doesn’t love a good pair of PJs?

5. Food and snacks during the day

Wedding days are long, and making sure your bridal party has plenty of snacks, drinks, and a light meal keeps everyone energized and happy. A thoughtful spread sets the tone for a relaxed and enjoyable morning.
