Step away from the matching silk clutches and monogrammed bracelets! There are so many more interesting bridesmaid gift options out there - especially if you and your gals go way back. You could go the cost-effective route and get your girls small items that serve as a reminder of some of your favourite memories, or splurge on matching jewellery items you know your besties will proudly rock on your wedding day and beyond.

Ideally, your bridesmaids' gifts will be items that are symbolic of both your marriage and your friendship (bonus points if they're useful beyond your wedding day).

Whether you're looking to assemble an awesome gift box full of knick-knacks, or invest in a few pricier items your bridesmaids will covet, we've pulled together some great ideas for some of the most important women in your life.
