The tradition of a bride giving gifts to her bridesmaids, and particularly in the form of jewellery, is one to certainly be embraced. The fact that its emergence is fairly recent shouldn’t be cause for dismissal on the basis of its lack of historical longevity, since it is a result of recent changes in how we in modern times approach our wedding days that it has come about.
In times past it would have been expected for the bride’s father to pay for the travel and clothing and general expenses of the bridesmaids. In those days giving gifts to a bridesmaid would seem peculiar and unnecessary. However, in this modern age it is of course unreasonable and old fashioned to automatically hold these expectations and it is common for bridesmaids to help the bride leading up to her big day and pay for and organise the bride-to-be’s pre-wedding celebrations.
A wedding can be stressful as it is joyful and your bridesmaids’ support is very valuable and what better way to thank them for their friendship with a small but lovely gift that they can keep forever, not necessarily as just a memento for your wedding of course, but for your appreciation of that person. Since the people the bride will choose for her bridesmaids should be friends dear and longstanding, it is important that the gift should be special and should be one that lasts to reflect that.
It is clear then that jewellery is the perfect gift to give, since if it is simple and yet elegant, it becomes timeless in its quality as a present, which can be cherished for many years after. We at SuShilla Jewellery have had several brides-to-be come to us wishing to purchase pieces as gifts for their bridesmaids. Since we offer a wide range of fabulous gemstones, where there is a stone to suit anyone, set in a way that has and will be classically fashionable, Sushilla Jewellery is naturally a good choice. Most often the Candy Pear earrings and the Tallulah Single drop Necklace is selected for this reason and can be found on our website or in selected stores.
