great bridesmaid gift idea + cheap website to buy them - SARONGS!

[PurpleUnicorn]

turns out i had picky BMs. one of them LOVED their sarong. another said it was nice but also commented twice that it was very "bright" - but also wore it a couple of times.  and another, more overweight BM said she can only wear her black sarong.  the last BM said she liked it, but didnt wear it all week because she left it in her welcome bag all week.

Did you feel it was worthwhile buying them?  Would you do it again or choose something different?

i think i would still do it again. as for the BM who said she can only wear her black one, not sure what i would do for her (my sister and MOH).  maybe i could have got her something else, but i got her one i really thought she would like. i asked them all their fave colors in advance but didnt tell them why and got each BM a different color.  so it would have been hard to predict how they would like it or not.

Thanks.  I will secretly feel out my bridesmaids on their thoughts (without them knowing!) and go from there.

Great site! I'll have to look into those!

I guess you can't win them all, can you!  Regardless, it was a cute idea, and very sweet of you!
