In this blog post, we will discuss the big question, bachelorette party gift etiquette, and give you some ideas for gifts that the bride-to-be will love. So whether you're attending a bachelorette party in the near future or just curious about what's appropriate, keep reading for all the details!

Do I Bring a Gift?

The answer to this question really depends on the host of the bachelorette party. Often, the bridesmaids will decide on one special gift for the bride and all chip in.

If the bachelorette is a weekend trip where bridesmaids are spending money on airfare, hotels, and activities, most brides won’t expect a large gift or even anything at all. Sometimes the maid of honor will coordinate fun swag for everyone and ask the bridesmaids to contribute towards that rather than buying individual gifts.If you're not sure what to do, it's always best to ask the host before you show up with a present in hand!

That being said, there are no hard and fast rules when it comes to bachelorette party gifts. If you want to bring something extra special for the bride-to-be, go ahead! Just make sure it's something she will appreciate and that doesn't clash with the theme of the party. For example, if the bachelorette party is being held in someone's home, a small gift like flowers or chocolates would be appropriate. But if the party is taking place at a bar or restaurant, it might be more practical to buy the bride-to-be a drink or meal instead of bringing a gift.

What Gifts do you bring to a Bachelorette Party?

Now that you have thought over whether or not you want to bring a gift to a bachelorette party, let's take a look at some ideas for what to buy!

If the host says it's okay for guests to bring gifts, there are a few things you should keep in mind. First of all, think about what the bride-to-be might need or want. Something the bride can use on her honeymoon or at home is alway a safe bet. If she's getting married soon, she may need some new essentials like lingerie or toiletries. Gag gifts or items that could be used as party favors are also a fun option.

Another tip is to think about the bride's personality and what she might like. There are plenty of fun bride and wedding related gifts to choose from, but your gift doesn’t need to be wedding related. She’s probably been thinking about the wedding non-stop, so she might appreciate something that helps take her mind off planning. If she's into fitness, for example, you could get her a new workout set. Alternatively, gift certificate to her nail salon would be a great way for her to relax.
Here are some ideas for appropriate bachelorette party gifts:

Sexy Lingerie

Get the bride-to-be ready for her honeymoon with some new lingerie. For the more modest bride, add is a custom robe and slippers.

Gifts to Make Her Laugh

Lucky for you, we have a page of our products organized by themes so you can easily find a gift to match your bach party theme!

If the host says no gifts, that doesn't mean you can't bring a present - just opt for something small and inexpensive. Flowers, chocolates, or a bottle of wine are all good options!
