I've bought my bridesmaids a swarovski necklace each which I got for £6 each from groupon ages ago. I think I'll also buy them some pamper treats like face masks, nail polish, that kind of thing. Hopefully it'll be nice.

I've been thinking about the same thing, I've bought my 2 adult bridesmaids a necklace to wear on the day from H Samuel that was £10 in the sale but I want to give them something extra.
They are both quite girly and like pampering so I was thinking mini bottle of fizz, chocolates, smellies and body products like face mask, manicure kit, exfoliating gloves, head band, face wipes, body lotion, eye mask etc then maybe a cute photo frame with a picture of us in and a candle.
I'm sure you could get most of it cheaply in sales and offers so I'll start keeping my eye out

Mini bottles of bubbly would be my first stop. M&S do nice little bottles of champagne and cava (white and rose) in store. Keep you eyes open for the buy 6 bottles get __% off deals as they usually apply for the miniature bottles as well. As there are3 bridesmaids you could get the cava and go for a rose and white each. It looks lovely added into any hamper.0

If you have a printer you could make a homemade thank you card for them, something they can put up after the wedding - maybe with a favorite photo of you and them on? - FREE

You could look in the sales for some bath and body products?
How about an invitation to your for a girlie night after the wedding where you can look at the photos/dvd and get a takeaway (or you cook as a Thank You).Forty and fabulous, well that's what my cards say....0 -
