Morning of the wedding: Gorgeous gifts to give a bride-to-be

Calling all bridesmaids!

Do you want to make your bride’s day an extra special one? Consider dotting decorations around the house on the morning of her wedding. Whether it’s a giant Mr & Mrs balloon or a heart-shaped photo frame of the happy couple, small gifts like these can really add to the atmosphere. They also set the tone for professional photos and videos. Wedding videographers often film close-up shots of the bride’s surroundings and ornaments and bridal robes can add a lot of personality to these.

Would your bride like a personalised throw? How about a dish for her rings? Check out these (and more) in our list of gift ideas below:
