    I have 4 adult BMs and ordered earrings and necklace. If I had younger BMs I would have probably gone with a charm bracelet or something. I am also getting them personalised dressing gowns for wearing when getting ready and a couple of other BMs kit items :-)

    Different things...

    I am going to be getting them all some nick nacks for the day as a gimmick... a lucky sixpence and I've got them emeryboard/tweezer/mirror sets in styles that suit them (Big sis loves russian dolls so hers is a babouskka, younger sister loves cutesy stuff like hello kitty so have a japanese geisha one for her, best mate travles a lot so hers is a vintage style New York one and H2Bs sister is very english rose so have her a pin up girl style one!) plus I've got them earrings for the day (little jade green roses) and I'll probably get them some other things including a voucher to spend each...Mang0 for best friend, M@c for little sis, b00ts for H2Bs sis... and depending on stage that big sis is at with her house will decide what I get hers for!)

    Other than that, their dresses are ones they'd easily be able to wear again and the shoes too, so I'll probably leave it at that!

    Oh and I have made them zip up hoodies with their roles on to be fun and tacky on the day...but to spare us all underwear marks and getting loads of makeup and hairspray and stuff on the dresses as can zip them off easy then use a scarf to protect the dresses which are zip up back WHITE shift dresses with black lace detail!

    I really like the idea of the dressing gowns - but its made me think as were going to Spain for my hen weekend, i could do bikini saying 'CB & Bridesmaid' etc!

    Thanks Ladies - knew you'd all have some good ideas :) xx
