5 Ways to Spoil Your Bridesmaids

They have been with you through the good times and the bad. Maybe through a few pints of Chunky Monkey ice cream, the minutes before adopting the cutest kitten ever, or that painful half-marathon when you are starting to get a cold. However your friendship bonded, those ladies (and even gents!) are now going to be standing with you as you start the next big chapter of your life with your forever partner, so it's only natural that you would want to spoil them in small and big ways to say thanks. So in partnership with POPSUGAR Must Have Box, we've rounded up our favorite ways to spoil your besties during your engagement. No matter if they are near or far, it's all about showing some extra love for your wedding support system!

Themed Luncheons

From pastel hues to pool parties to brunch menus to lunch by the waterside, whatever the theme is, bring your wedding party together for a non-bridal shower or wedding-related luncheon and have a little fun with your theme and your squad. Be sure to communicate the theme ahead of time, especially if it involves a costume or color-specific outfit! Some of our favorite themes have been preppy chic, trendy flamingos, and giant inflatable pool floaties. Possibilities are endless, but any time spent together is a great one.

On-Location Spa Treats

First it was food trucks, but now there are spas on wheels (like Dove and Daisy Spa in Virginia Beach)! Rent a mobile spa for the afternoon and invite all of your ladies for massages, manicures, pedicures, or any other spa treatment that's offered. It's such a low stress get together that will guarantee the "I appreciate being spoiled!" factor. So no matter where you are, bring the spa to you. Consider finding a local park and having a picnic just outside the RV as well. It'll definitely be a weekend afternoon well spent.

Personalized Wedding Day Gifts

Cheers to friendship! There are so many ways to personalize wedding day gifts depending on your personality and your friends' styles. From monogrammed t-shirts, tote bags, to jewelry, anything that makes it extra special for that bridesmaid is sure to make her feel extra loved.

Chic Crafternoons

What if you and your crew are a bunch of crafty masters? Plan a chic crafternoon that's a little different than the average scrapbooking or paper cutting. Consider alternative creative projects like DIY Flower Crowns, DIY candles, or even DIY lip balms. Chances are it's all a little outside everyone's skill set, so it'll be something new as you make some fun treats and memories together!
