I'm building a bachelorette gift box. What would you ladies like to see in it if you were receiving one? Other than a million dollars and equal rights.

This might be unpopular, but nothing specific to bachelorettes/this particular wedding (i.e., shirts, mugs, etc. that say “bride tribe” or “X’s bachelorette”). While they’re cute in pictures, I always end up throwing them out after.

This is not exactly what you asked, but is this by chance a situation where you are local/driving distance and other girls are flying in? If that’s the case, you will be the hero if you bring decent shampoo and conditioner so that girls flying in don’t have to worry about travel sizes.

Thinking back to my last one- Makeup wipes were also a hit. We did cute matching slippers too. The girls loved those.

$999,999?! Jk 😊 Self care items are nice like candles, Korean face masks, satin eye masks. Other useful items could be slim portable chargers with built-in cords, and mini bottles of wine to commiserate the lack of equal rights.

Mini prosecco!

I found these really cute leather makeup bags on the Saks website’s sale section for like $20 each and put those in a floral box with a satin scrunchie, liquid iv, advil, an on the rocks margarita, and a lip gloss.

I saw your comment above, and I too wanted to give people things that they could reuse (both for the bachelorette and day of wedding gifts). The best thing I did was go to the sale section on websites and sort by lowest price. You can find a lot of good stuff there! Def check the Nordstrom, Saks, Nordstrom rack, saks off fifth, tj maxx, and Marshalls websites.

I did matching pajamas, liquid IV, lip balm, fuzzy socks, (we were in cold climate), some mini skin care. Ski beanies that were bachelorette branded (I know it’s wasteful but one thing was fun to have).

Nice socks are clutch. Maybe individualized insulated wine cups with lids so everyone can keep track of their drink.

Same, had a good friend who did this with our names on the cups for brunch the morning of the wedding at the venue. Use mine all the time still!

If a group is coming together and they do not know each other well, it would be fun to have a fun fact about someone in the group in each box, and then start off the event with a game where attendees have 2-3 questions they can ask to determine who the fun fact is about.

Love this idea

Wine charms or cute drink markers (my friend did little straw holders) are nice to keep track of drinks if you don’t want to do personalized cups like the suggestion above (not sure what the budget is)

Something edible. I love edible gifts because I get to enjoy them without adding more clutter to my life. Examples: chocolates, champagne gummy bears, popcorn, pretzels, mints, favorite candy, cupcake.

I included makeup wipes, which seemed random, but they were a hit. I also included a glass coffee cup w a lid and straw that had a pink bow on it. No names or bride or shit like that. They all still use it!
