Wedding Bridal Gift Baskets

Wedding bridal gift baskets can be a terrific way of thanking those special women in one's life that have given their consent to be a part of that memorable day. This stylized container that is so popular in and of itself, can contain an incredible assortment of small gifts especially chosen just for the woman to whom it is given. There are several ways that this gift idea can unfold, each of them promising the "ooh and aah" effect. Much of the selection process will be dependent upon budget, taste and availability. And since this writer's tongue is now firmly in cheek, consider the "Christmas gift effect," which many Americans hold dear to their hearts. Whether it is rejected or not, accepted as truth or just blown off as the result of consumerism, this strange practice says that a present given must be offset by a gift in return of similar value. One can laugh and pooh pooh the notion, but the Christmas present effect's aura casts a foreboding shadow on gifts given all year long, requiring very long term memories for all givers of presents.

The result of such nonsense can be that marital celebration party members may secretly resent all the expense and hassle of being in a marriage celebration, and may hope for some sort of equal in value payback. Of course, one whose optimism remains strong in the goodness of people's hearts will find even the hint of such a possibility preposterous. So the problem of what to give will always be in the brides and grooms hands, but many wise married people know that ten years after the wedding it won't really make any difference at all! Probably many of the wedding party won't even remember if it was wedding party gift baskets or buckets that they received.

If the budget is high for such gifts, options abound. The wedding party bridal gifts baskets can be pretty impressive. One company offers wedding baskets in the shape of hat boxes, filled with gourmet chocolates and tea, for seventy-nine dollars. Or choose from the same company a basket shaped as two real leather suitcases filled again with gourmet food, for the lowly price of three hundred and twenty nine dollars. For an in between idea, try the basket in the form of a wooden antiqued box filled with, well, more gourmet food for one hundred and forty dollars. Or, as another option for the high end spender, just forget the basket and give all the women a new electronic gadget to hold twenty thousand songs.

For the high end budget, ideas for the men are also interesting. Wedding party gift baskets for them can include the handyman gift basket from one website that includes an actual handyman's tool box filled with chocolates for one hundred and forty nine dollars. Or perhaps consider the large wicker basket filled with smoked salmon, truffles and caviar for the same price, or the golf themed basket that is really a cooler in the shape of a golf bag filled with golf shaped pretzels, golf shaped cookies, golf shaped chocolates, golf shaped...well, the idea has been planted. The cost for the duffer's delight is ninety-nine dollars. Of course, with all these high end gifts, the prices does not include shipping and handling, which sometimes can be so high that the assumption is made that they are shipped from Bora Bora and handled by those with Master's degrees in logistics.

However, there are great alternatives for those who want to provide sensible gratitude gifts. Consequently, wedding bridal gift baskets can be created on less than a bloated budget. Beautiful wicker baskets can be obtained on line for less than four dollars and decorated beautifully for just a few dollars more. What is placed in one of these wedding bridal gift baskets can be chosen personally for each valued woman or girl the marriage celebration party. That kind of intimate care will be greatly appreciated by the attendants. The following are ideas that can be combined with others to create a memorable gift at a reasonable price. Consider candles, small gift certificates to a favorite coffee haunt, a framed picture of just the bride and that person, or a picture of all the women in the party. Or perhaps think about bath soaps, paperweights, gourmet chocolates, costume jewelry of reasonable taste and quality, and maybe bath slippers.

And as far as filling inexpensive wedding party gift baskets for the guys, there are also many options. Golf tees, a sleeve of his favorite golf balls, a set of small screwdrivers, and a keychain with his car's logo, an inexpensive gift certificate to download music, a cool travel mug, something with his college or pro football team's logo is cool. Perhaps a Swiss army knife or a battery powered hook sharpener for the fisherman. Whatever hobby or interest your attendant or groomsman has, some small, practical gifts can be found for that basket.
