From dresses to accessories, gifts, and more, finding everything you need for your wedding can be challenging. To help you through your wedding journey, we’ve teamed up with our friends at David’s Bridal to help us bring you all your bride-to-be must-haves in one place with our Friday Favs! Each week, a member of David’s Bridal’s team will share with us some of their favorite items. Today’s Friday Favs is all about color-coordinating bridesmaid dresses & gifts with our DB expert Emily S.! Check back each week for a new Friday Favs roundup!
Hello beautiful! Emily from the gifts & decor team here, taking over this week’s Friday Favs. In the gifts department at David’s Bridal, we have the opportunity to develop products that are novelty and outside the norm of typical “bridal” items. Some of our favorite products are our bridesmaid gifts, from proposal boxes to getting-ready outfits and more! Today, I’m sharing some ideas for color-coordinated gifts to match your bridesmaid dresses. Most of the time, the gifts a bride gives her maids are items that they can use during the events surrounding the wedding and on the big day. If she coordinates the colors, it will help the events leading up to the special day all feel cohesive (and insta-worthy!). Ready to get inspired? Read on for some of my favorite bridesmaid dresses and color-coordinating gifts!
Wine
Dressing your besties in the shade Wine? Pick a wine-colored robe, PJ set, or slippers that directly match back to the bridesmaid dress. This creates a picture-perfect moment from partying at your bachelorette party to getting ready on the big day. The smaller gift items feature purple and dark red tones that all complement the wine color perfectly. The silky & soft ruffle short tank PJ set is by far my favorite gift from this group. I love that it can be worn again and again after the wedding. PJ sets are so on-trend right now for getting ready and this would be my #1 choice as a bridesmaid.
Dusty Blue
Looking for your “something blue”? These gifts are perfect! The trendy shade of this dress is similar to the blue hues of these bridesmaid robes, creating a cohesive color palette. Instead of gifting all blue items, consider picking gifts with neutral colors like white and silver that complement the soft blue tone of the dress. I would have to say the Glam Squad Duo is my favorite gift from this group. It has lip gloss on one end and roll-on perfume oil on the other—perfect for a bridesmaid to have on hand during the wedding. Also, it just so happens to tie perfectly back to our blue color palette with the beautiful flowers inside!
Cinnamon
Cinnamon is the perfect color for your fall bridal party. I love the hints of cinnamon mixed into the prints of this robe & PJ set. This is a great way to incorporate a print into your getting-ready look but still have it match back to your bridesmaid colors. Rose gold is also a beautiful compliment to cinnamon, so accessories with a rose-tinted hue make the perfect gifts for your bridal party. I love this rose gold stacked monogram flask! This super chic & fun gift and can be used at all events surrounding the wedding, and after.
Sand
Keeping things neutral with the color Sand? This color bridesmaid dress looks great with champagne, tan and gold gifts (including leopard print!). The gold on these stemless wine glasses and sashes coordinates beautifully with a Sand-colored dress. My favorite gift from this group would have to be the champagne-scented ‘Let’s Get Lit’ candle! It’s packaged with a beautiful gold metallic floral pattern that matches back to our shade Sand. It’s a gift that I personally would love to receive!
