We’ve had a lot of baby stuff going on here lately, so I feel like it’s time to switch it up a bit and talk about wedding celebrations for a few days! First up: stylish party favors/decorations for bridal showers and cool gift ideas for bridesmaids (or shower hostesses!) from the knot wedding shop . (plus a 10% off coupon code!)
Pictured at top: Party Favor Favorites
- Silk Fans : Cute for Asian/Zen shower themes (try fanning them out on top of placesettings)
- Butterfly in Flight Favors : Perfect for Butterfly Bridal or Garden themes
- Blooming Favor Boxes : Perfect for Floral themes
- Rose Favor Soaps : Perfect for Floral or Romance/Valentine Themes; package 2-3 of them in a favor box and embellish with mod ribbon
Next: Place Card Holder Favorites
- Tulip Place Card Holders : Super-mod feel; cute for contemporary floral themes (or this Love Comes Softly theme from hwtm.com)
- Mini Vase & Place Card Holders : I love the minimalist feel of these – and since you can fill them with flowers/greenery, they pull double-duty as great table decor!
- Dolphin Place Card Holders : Super cute for a beach theme – and surprisingly affordable at $19.95 for a set of 12!
- Elephant Place Card Holders: These have always been a personal favorite of mine and are perfect for a Safari or Indian theme. Added bonus: the elephant is a symbol of good luck – so these little guys are very fitting for bridal or baby showers!
Last but not least: Stylish Bridesmaid Gift Ideas
- Personalized Silk Cosmetic Bags : Personalization always makes a gift seem extra-thoughtful. I love the idea of filling these little bags with lip glosses, mascara, nail polish, mini lotions, etc. You know – the essentials ;)
- Mini Boxes Sachets : Scented, silky mini-pillows in fun colors with a gold charm bracelet perched on top. Eiffel tower, heart, and purse shaped charms available, so you can pick the design you think each of. At $14 each these seem like a steal!
- Personalized Silk Jewelry Rolls : Jewelry for the big day is always a popular gift for bridesmaids – but it seems extra special when unwrapped in a pretty jewelry roll personalized especially for them.
- Colored Heart Luggage Tags : Great idea for a destination wedding! would also look cute hanging from the strap of a tote-bag gift
Special Deal for Readers : Get 10% off your entire purchase at the knot wedding shop with the coupon code " HWTM ". (Good through 2/20/08 )

The heart luggage tags are SO adorable! I was already going to create cute tote bags filled with goodies for my girls – this would be a very cute finishing touch to hang on the strap! thanks!
I love those tulip place card holders. I am already envisioning them on my table. Thanks for the great ideas!
