Every bride at some point in her planning tries to think of a special gift to give the girls special enough to stand up with her on her wedding day. We find that many of our brides are wanting to make them personal, memorable and sentimental but are having a hard time coming up with something that would represent each special friend that can also be worn/used again.
We have teamed with Wichita's very own PINK Saloon to help give brides some fresh alternatives to "wedding party gifts". Hopefully you will find some inspiration and the perfect gift for your special ladies!
At Events By Ashley, we love supporting local businesses in the Wichita community,
one of those being PINK Saloon. This local boutique has some of the trendiest
clothing, accessories, shoes, and jewelry you can find in the Wichita area. A
great thing about this boutique is several of the items they sell benefit
another organization in which a portion of the proceeds go towards.
They have recently started selling Namaste bracelets, which
are flying out the door left and right. These are spreading like wild fire
across the city due to their cute designs, fun colors, and stacking ability. A
little arm candy is always good right?! These bracelets are handmade by the
women in Nepal, and a portion of the proceeds go back to these women so they
can support their families. Such a great cause! You can color coodinate with your own wedding, mix and match or even pick your attendants favorite colors.
Check out their website here: http://www.fairtradefashiondesigns.com/nepal-beaded-bracelets-2/
The Alex and Ani Bracelets have also become quite popular because of how unique they are and also because of the personalization ability. They are expandable wire bangles and come in gold and silver. They provide an aray of charms from initials, to crosses, birth signs, and charity sign charms just to name a few. Give each of your girls a bracelet with their initial and maybe pair with a namaste bracelet. They do carry a bridal collection that is unique and quite lovely for the bride as well. Make sure you check out the collection here: http://www.zeeberry.com/alex-and-ani-jewelry/alex-and-ani-bridal.cfm
PINK carries a huge assortment of scarves that come in all kinds of colors and patterns. This is great gift that can and will be used time and time again. Each one can be hand picked for each attendant based on personality, favorite colors, etc....
Hopefully you have been inspired to think outside the box and buy personalized, reusable/wearable gifts for the ladies who will stand up with you on the most important day in your life! PINK Saloon is giving away these 3 namaste bracelets to one lucky lady!

Are wedding PARTY gifts something new? I'm over 50, I've been in many weddings and I don't remember getting a gift.
ReplyDeleteThey are Catherine....usually it is a necklace or something that can be worn with the wedding attire chosen by the bride.
