She has stood by you in the past months as you have been on the emotional roller-coaster that planning a wedding has been.

Each of your bridesmaids is different; each of them has been there for you in a different way, so each bridesmaid deserves a different gift - or at least a gift that you have personalised. Whether you are traditional in your views or more modern, you want to give a memorable gift; something that she will treasure - and remember you by, forever.

The gift is something personal. If you can afford to splash out, you might want to do something special that you can all share in, like a day at a spa together Vintage Trouwjurk a week or so before the big day.

Another treat for all of you is a really special meal at a favourite restaurant or a picnic specially catered to your taste. There are specialist catering companies who will do this to your specifications.

Traditional gifts could include personalised towels or linen, stationery or luggage, or simple items of engraved jewellery. A gift subscription to a favourite magazine is also most acceptable.

If money is tight (or even if it is not) you might want to make the gifts you give them. Your specific talents may lend themselves to this. If you have a talent for scrapbooking, you might want to create an original 'memory book' for each of them. You could put together 'pamper baskets' containing a range of goodies (personalised according to each girl's taste) that will allow a time of personal pampering.
