It’s tradition to mark noteworthy occasions with a special keepsake, a tangible article people cherish alongside the special memories.
What better way to say thank you to your bridesmaids for having your back through wedding planning and beyond than with a great gift?
Presenting them with a gorgeous accessory they can wear during the ceremony is the perfect way to show appreciation. It’s a great way of saying “thank you” for all the support leading up to your big day.
If you’re looking for that extra special something, we’ve got you covered — from head to toe. We’ve selected five wearable bridesmaid gifts your bridal party will absolutely love, with a few of our favorite examples.
1. Jewelry
Of all the gift ideas, jewelry is one of the most intimate and personal ways to convey gratitude. Giving jewelry to your bridal party is the ultimate thank you, and your bridesmaids will cherish the precious token for years to come.
The trick is to find a quality yet affordable piece. A lovely, delicate design that’s special and unique — something your bridesmaids will delight in wearing long after you say “I do.”
These beautifully curated pieces can be standalone gifts. Or, you can offer them as part of a gift bag containing scrunchies, a sleep mask, a ring dish, a jewelry box or jewelry case, and other self-care goodies.
Ines Hoops
Adorned with glittering glass crystals, these Ines Hoops are exquisite. They’re delicate and easy to wear yet still eye-catching.
Lolita Mini Hoops Gold
The Lolita Mini Hoops in Gold are beautiful, each with intricate layers of hand-cut crystals. These delicate one-of-a-kind hoops perfectly capture an airy, slightly ethereal essence.
Butterfly Gold Necklace
Like your wedding day, butterflies represent endless love and the start of a new chapter. That’s just one of the reasons we love this Butterfly Gold Necklace. Each one is meticulously sculpted by hand and set with little crystals.

2. Handbags
Not all handbags are created equal, and some simply aren’t cut out for weddings.
Presenting your bridesmaids with a purse designed to be part of a special occasion is thoughtful. And when both the bridesmaids’ dresses and bags match, you have an ultra-cohesive and utterly pleasing bridal party look.
Jet Marlow Satin Evening Pouch
For those looking for something classic, the Jet Marlow Satin Evening Pouch is it. This clutch with a faux pearl top handle is the perfect gift. It enhances every ensemble and is big enough to hold the essentials — phone, lipstick, and tissue.
Ideal for any formal event, black tie included.
Natural Maya Mini Tote
The Natural Maya Mini Tote is crafted from genuine leather and adorned with natural raffia panels and faux pearls. It’s flirty, fun, and practically begging to be included in a summer wedding!
It’s not just adorable; it’s practical too. It fits all the essentials, and your bridesmaids will be delighted to receive this tote.
3. Robes
Move over, matching pajama sets. A wedding is special and calls for a little more finesse.
Robes are synonymous with pampering. Your bridesmaids will look ultra-glam (yet feel relaxed and refreshed!) lounging around clad in a silky satin wrap.
You can bulk up the “goodie” factor by including an eye mask, hair ties, and a compact mirror along with the bridesmaid robes. Just steer clear of face masks if one or more of your bridesmaids has super sensitive skin.
Sheer Crepe Stole
This lux Sheer Crepe Stole comes in many hues, so you’ll find one that matches your wedding colors.
Jenny Yoo Theo Robe
It’s easy to picture your bridesmaids all wearing this lightweight silky Jenny Yoo Theo Robe with its darling floral print, mimosas in hand.
Jenny Yoo Isabella Robe
With its soft, muted pastel abstract pattern, this beautiful Jenny Yoo Isabella Robe is another sumptuous option.
Honestly, though, you can’t go wrong with any of them. The truth is, not much tops lounging around with your besties clad in matching robes.
4. Shoes
Shoes are the ultimate accessory. Gifting your bridesmaids a pair of heels ensures the bridal party looks incredible, dressed cohesively from head to toe.
Daniella Block Heel Sandal in Black Leather
Why choose style over comfort when you can have both? The Daniella Block Heel Sandal in Black Leather is pretty and practical. Perfect for outdoor weddings— especially ones that require navigating gravel and lawns. With these, no one will have trouble walking.
Yves Wedge in Ivory Leather
The Yves Wedge in Ivory Leather is deluxe — you definitely don’t want these beauties hiding under a maxi skirt.
Bianka Slingback Pump in Gold Leaf Leather
The Bianka Slingback Pump in Gold Leaf Leather adds just the right amount of bling to any ensemble. The low heel is also ideal for those who’d rather not strut in stilettos.
Samara Foldable Ballet Flat in Rose Gold
Ballet flats are an excellent option, especially if your bridesmaids wear floor-length skirts. Comfortable and sweet, the Samara Foldable Ballet Flats in Rose Gold are breathable and have a cushioned sole. They’re perfect for any occasion that requires a lot of moving about.
Milan Slide in Ivory Leather
Another option is to give your bridesmaids a pair of slides, something comfy to slip into before and after the celebration. Your bridesmaids will feel the love — a gift of comfort and style is always appreciated — and the Milan Slide in Ivory Leather delivers on both.
5. Tote Bags and Other Goodies
Some brides may just give their maid of honor a unique gift — something extra special. They’ll then present the rest of the bridal party with something more traditional.
From jewelry to clothing pieces, Etsy is bursting with personalized gift ideas.
You can also put together little gift boxes for your wedding party containing things like:
If you’re planning a destination wedding, you can always include fun little trinkets like matching t-shirts or practical gifts like flip-flops that they can use during the wedding weekend.
If you’re unsure where to look for bridesmaid gift ideas, check out Amazon. They have some great gift set options as well.
Ultimately, the best bridesmaid gifts are heartfelt gifts — things you’ve put thought and effort into.
When it’s time to hand out the bridal party gifts on the morning of the wedding, your bridesmaids will love whatever thoughtful piece you’ve chosen. After all, it’s the sentiment — the thought counts more than anything else.
Finally, best of all, you’re all together, laughing and celebrating your special day.
