I was invited to a joint sweet sixteen. There are three girls who are holding it. They each had their own guest list. My friend said we didn't have to get gifts for everyone but I was talking to other people and we all agree it would be kind of awkward to get a gift for one person but not the other two. I'm good friends with one girl but not really friends with the other two. Any gift suggestions?

of course it'd be polite to get them all a gift but maybe a better gift for the girl that you know. but if you REALLY don't want to get the other two something for any reason, then i don't think you should (like if you're having some $$ problems or w/e). i would tell you not to be obligated to get something for the two that you don't really know but as for myself, i would feel obligated anyways. you're not going to the party for them, you're going for the one girl. but anyway, as for gift suggestions for the two girls, you could get them a shirt/tank top if you want to spend $10+ dollars and the other girl a scarf? or you could do a set consisting of a scarf and gloves, scarf and hat, or hat and gloves, or just all three if it's within your price limit. victoria's secret pjs or sweatpants from the pink collection can be very well appreciated or from any store actually. that ranges from about $25-40 depending on where you go. and if i were you, i probably wouldn't spend any more than $30-40 bucks especially if you don't really know them too well (unless, you're rich or have money to spend or whatever). so that's what i think. cold weather accessories and pj's are the best things to get when you're unsure. also be sure to include a gift receipt! don't forget that ever! and note to them that if they don't really like the gift, they should definitely feel free to return it -- after all, the gift receipt is there for a reason! something from sephora would also be nice. you can check out the site to see their gift ideas. there are so many things to choose from and it's a great store. also be sure to include a gift receipt! hope this was helpful :] if you have any questions, just message me!

Since you're on the guest list for only one girl, you should purchase a gift only for her. You are not obligated to purchase gifts for people you do not know, and it is not awkward or impolite not to do so. What is awkward is having a joint sweet sixteen, and you don't have to get caught up in it. Just buy a gift for your friend and go to the party and enjoy yourself.

perchance you ought to get her a present day certificates for a nail filing or pedicure if she's into that style of ingredient. How bout make her a basket with stuff she likes in it (attempt the dollar keep for baskets, candles, knick knacks and such) you ought to place 3 tiny airplane bottles of a few liquor in it. Take her out to dinner. you may under no circumstances circulate incorrect with present certificates so she could purchase her very own cd's, video clips, clothing, and so on. Or while you're desperate, chilly perplexing funds and a card works everytime (even if impersonal, and an elementary way out) hey, even a gas card! instances are difficult for a 21 year outdated. How bout an low-cost indoor waterfall?

It's fine not to give gifts to the other 2 because they have their own friends who will give to them anyways. If you want to, you may give them less expensive gifts such as a bookmark and a card or something really inexpensive but nice.

A picture frame with the word "friends" around the frame. You can get a different color or size for each person.
