I was going to put a picture of us in it? What else can I get them besides jewerly. I am not a big jewerly girl unless it was for the hair or something? Flip flops what else? My budget would be like $50 or $40 a girl. Something else for my matron.

Why not pay to have their hair done the day of the wedding. You could all go together. We all went to the same place, and they did mine for free. Hope that helps. Good luck.

Well your other best answers had some great suggestions--
*My mother-in-law put pottery in some of there bridesmaids bags. Oh, I bought some black and pink tote bags and had their name engraved. They loved it and I see them around and they use it as their purse!
*Gift certificates for a restaurant that they like. Movie gift cards.
*A Victoria's secret gift card or a spa certificate
*I also did velure track suits with their intials on the left chest and the date of the wedding on the left wrist
*For my bridemaids I gave them a canvas tote bag with flip flops to wear during the reception along with a picture frame and a mug that said bridesmaid and the date on it. I also got them their jewlery. They all seemed to enjoy this:)
From my own point of view--you mentioned you are going to the Caribbean for your honeymoon. It's the end of June--really the start of summer. I love the tote bags in your wedding colors (you can find tons online or LL Bean) and filled with lil summer things. Sunscreen, a big beach towel, flip flops, perhaps a sun visor or a giftcard to Sunglass Hut. Does your wedding have a theme? You could go with something for the theme. Or a spa package. Some Avon Foot Works Tropical Coconut lotion and sea salt scrub, St Ives Apricot body scrub, Aveno positively smooth shave less lotion, a nice bath salt and body butter.
$50 is a nice sized budget--and they don't all have to be identical. Your bridesmaids are each unique and different--why can't their gifts be as well? Right now at World Market they have a "make your own" gift section. The basket and the wood filler, fill with items you think they would like. World Market has unique candies from Europe, fabulous candles, and a nice wine selection. You then wrap the basket up in plastic wrap.

I know you don't want to get them jewelry but for 50 or 40 a girl I recommend getting a Juicy Couture Charm. THey have bunches of different kinds and you can pick and choose one that reminds you of that particular bridesmaid. Their in color with rhinestones so they're really playful. Hang them on a not so expensive gold chain and you have a necklace.

a gift certificate to for a massage and spa treatment...
I know that right now during the holidays, many companies are sending people out door to door to business and offering a package deal when you buy a gift vertificate.
For example, you can get a package that includes manicures, pedicures, facials, amd massage treatments... all for around your spending budget...
I suggest you contact local stores, and let them know that you will be buying several at once, and maybe they can set up a package like that or give you a discount...

I would go on ebay or bridesvillage and look on there...there are unique things there... How about a manicure or pedicure? Can't go wrong w/ pampering. :)
Not to be rude but don't you ask this question about EVERYDAY? What other answers are you seeking??

-You could get each girl a simple piece of jewelry with her birthstone in it.
-A personalized robe for them to wear while getting ready for the wedding
-Someone else suggested a spa day, I think anyone would love that!
-I love anything from Vera Bradley, they have tons of bags & accessories to choose from & you could get each girl a different design: http://www.verabradley.com/Site/Store/OurCollection.aspx

it depends on the type of girl that they are..all the girls for mine were big drinkers..as were the men..so they all got flasks..*which they use a lot!!* women had leather ones in their favorite color..men had these steel ones with a design... and then the one bridesmaid i had that wasnt a drinker..got a jewlery box...the best man and maid of honor..got flask gift sets
there so much you can do..
clocks..pens..key chains..mirror compacts..tote bags..

i could advise..... you're taking them out for dinner some night and in basic terms tell them what that fairly meant to you. a modern could be ok... yet a coronary heart-felt dinner with them could in all likelihood be better won!
