Planning a wedding is a whirlwind of excitement and detail, and bridal showers can easily get lost in the shuffle of preparing for the big day. Amidst all the chaos, it’s essential to remember the importance of appreciating those who help make this journey so special. Whether your bridal shower is hosted by a sister, mother, cousin, or friend, a thoughtful gift to express your gratitude can make a big impact. I’ve curated a list of charming and meaningful bridal shower hostess gifts that are perfect for showing a little love to the amazing lady (or ladies) who took the time to celebrate you.
And if you’re in a different phase of life, see what I would gift the hostess(es) of my baby shower here!
My Top Bridal Shower Hostess Gifts
A Dainty Piece of Jewelry
I can’t think of anyone who would be upset to receive a quality piece of jewelry. The key to a making this an exceptional gift is the quality. Aim for something that’s not just on trend, but is timeless – simple enough for everyday wear but unique enough to feel personal. Henri Noel has some fabulous choices that fit the bill perfectly. Visit their website to find my favorite pieces from their shop HERE.
Nice Glassware
If your hostess likes to entertain frequently (chances are she does if she’s hosting your shower) gifting her quality glassware is a no-brainer. It’s something you can never have enough of and is universally needed. And if you know she’s okay with a little personality, the icon juice glasses from Anthropologie are a great pick – so many options to choose from! Attach a cute note that says something like, “A toast to you! Thanks for hosting my party, use these for your next one!”
Sleep Mask
I’ve converted many a friend over to being a sleep mask user. Let me tell you, I feel so much more rested on nights that I wear mine so think of this as giving the gift of rest. My favorite is the silk Nodpod, it’s definitely a splurge for a product like this but that’s what makes it a great gift. They may not buy it for themselves but I promise you they will use it. Attach a note that says, “Thank you for hosting my shower and helping me get some rest, you deserve some too”
Personalized Planner/Notebook
“Thank you for helping me plan my shower, use this to plan something fun”. This note along with a chic planner (personalized is even better) is the cutest bridal shower hostess gift, especially for a friend who likes to have a plan.
Personalized Tote Bag & Goodies
You can find personalized tote bags all over Etsy. I would personally order the mini boat tote with their monogram and fill it with their favorite goodies like candy, gift cards, a candle, lip gloss, etc. Attach a tag that says, “For all those times you’ve been my shoulder to lean on—here’s a tote that’ll carry you through many more adventures!”
Personalized Apron & Cook Book
Similar to the glassware idea, if this person volunteered to host your shower that typically means that they like hosting. And if they cook for their own events, a personalized apron paired with your favorite cookbook is such a cute gift.
