Well, i just wanted to say a lot of people that I know do this, so its not far-fetched, but to give the bridal party jewelry to wear on the wedding as a gift. But where is a good place that is cheap like 10-25 bucks, but pretty things they would want to wear??

Many brides do this...however I would add a small gift of appreciation that has nothing to do with their wedding attire since technically that is for you as well.
Have you tried making the jewelry? You can easily do them for that price and it would add a very personal touch that jewelry from Claire's just couldn't. It's actually very easy and looks beautiful. I made my whole wedding set with the exception of my bracelet.
Shop the jewelry/department stores around sale times too. Several times a year they run those 70% off sales and you could pick up something really nice in sterling silver or white gold. We got my stepdad's fiancee a 5 diamond and 14k white gold circle necklace for $50 last year.

Yes, jewelry is the traditional bridal party gift.
I would check places like Claire's boutique and the kiosks at the mall. The jewelry does not have to be real, just nice costume jewelry. Even in the jewelry section of Wal-mart you may find some nice things, just keep your eyes open.
Other options are online stores, like the few I found.
Good luck!

I gave my bridesmaids their earrings as their gift. I gave them something simple and classic, something that they could wear on different occassions even after the wedding. David's Bridal has some really nice wedding jewelry for reasonable prices, as does Claire's and any department store. You may be pushing it to find something nice for $10, but with a $25 limit you should definitely be able to get something classy and pretty.

I had my daughter's and her bridesmaids jewelry made at a local craft store. There is a lady that makes custom crystal and pearl jewelry. She made my daughter an aurora borealis crystal and pearl necklace, bracelet to match (with a dangling heart clasp), & matching drop earrings. The crystals and pearls were very tiny and dainty. She made the 2 bridesmaids light pink (to match their gowns) crystal and pearl bracelets with matching earrings. I think I paid $60.00 for everything. The jewelry was beautiful. If you can find someone to do this, they would be the type of jewelry that no one else had at a great price.

If you have time, you might check out ebay. There's tons of good quality jewelry available really cheap, and you can get something of a much higher quality. Plus, you can get unique antique/vintage pieces. This probably wouldn't be a good idea if you want everyone to have the same ex acct matching piece, but I think getting each one something unique that suits her taste (but still is similar enough to match) might be a better idea anyway. You can find beautiful antique rhinestone brooches, hair combs, and charms.

That's the same thing I bought my bridesmaids. I got mine from Avon for $40 altogether. I have 4 bridesmaids. The sets were on sale when I bought them though. Another good place to look is Claire's. They have some nice sets in that price range. Good luck!

Im glad im not one of your bridesmaids. For all the effort they put in doing things for you, buying expensive dresses they never wear again, you are going to give them something cheap and nasty? I wouldnt be impressed.
Just remember, cheaper jewelery some people are allergic to. I know I am, and wouldnt like red welts on my skin because the jewelery was cheap.

Thats what I did and I got the idea from the knot.com
I would just get them something they will want to wear again and not go in the back of their closet like their dresses. I would spend at least $30

i'm getting my women a custom wine glass. each of them enjoys ingesting wine so i presumed this would be a stunning concept. The glass is hand painted and says alongside the backside "thank you for being my Bridesmaid" and on the best section it has their preliminary. you may exchange the colors on the glass in case you like and have their call spelled out quite of in basic terms the preliminary. i would be putting the glasses and a couple of alternative little issues (no longer something very high priced) in one in each of those photograph boxes.
