Finding the perfect gift for your bridesmaids isn't always easy. No one deserves a thoughtful gift more than the ladies who stand by your side and support you through one of the most exciting times of your life. But with so many options out there, it can be especially hard to choose something that's meaningful and useful, that you know everyone will love, and that shows your 'maids just how much they mean to you. Sure, jewelry, pajamas, and cute silk robes are always appreciated, but how many times have you seen that done before?

To help you find gift your girls something original and lovely, we went on the hunt to find perfect present options. But that's not all: We took it one step further and sought out gifts that also give back. We're all about spreading the love in more ways than one, and these fabulous ideas do just that. From great bottles of bubbly and adorable bags to luxe beauty gift sets and trendy accessories, we rounded up thank-you presents that will put a smile on your 'maids faces. Get shopping!
