Age-Appropriate Wedding Attendant Gifts
After all of the work, support, and commitment the wedding attendants give, it's nice to be able to give something in return. If you're working with a tight budget, you'll want to find cheap wedding attendant gifts that are appropriate for the recipient.
Wedding attendant gifts for the bridesmaids and groomsmen include anything from personalized handbags to jewelry. The people hardest to buy for are the flower girls and ring bearers. When choosing flower girl gifts or gifts for the ring bearer, buy gifts appropriate for their ages.
The following is a guideline on the type of wedding attendant gifts to buy based on age-appropriateness:
Ages 2 – 5: Gifts in this age group should include something that the parents can use as a keepsake (a personalized picture frame or silver-plated themed bank, for example) but should also include a toy for the child that is age-appropriate and doesn't pose a choking hazard. Ideas include a personalized purse, lunch box, or book.
Ages 6 – 10: There are many wedding attendant gifts to consider for this age group including things like a flower girl charm bracelet, backpack, personalized silver yo-yo, a flower girl necklace, or a personalized jar filled with candy!
Ages 11 and up: Tweens and teens appreciate things they can use or eat such as a jar filled with their favorite candy, a backpack that can be used for school, games, books, etc.
Remember, when choosing wedding attendant gifts for children, think about what you would have liked at that age.
