Since your bridesmaids worked so hard to help you plan your wedding, it stands to reason that you?ll want to find a way to thank them. Earrings are a perfect gift because not only can they wear them as part of their look on your wedding day, but they?ll be able to wear them after the wedding is over, as well. Here are some tips that will help you choose a great pair of earrings to give as a thank you gift to your bridesmaids:

Match the Dress

When selecting a pair of earrings for your bridesmaids, you may want to find something that they can wear on your wedding day. To do this, you need to find a pair that perfectly matches their bridesmaid dress. Considerations such as the material, color, the neckline, and even what hairstyle they?ll be wearing will all help you decide what to buy.

Choose a Classic Style

One of the easiest ways to match the dress and also give your bridesmaids some mileage out of the gift is to select a classic style that they?ll always be able to wear. For instance, a simple pair of pearl earrings will go with almost everything, including the dress. They?ll also be more likely to use them in the coming years. Classic styles can also become heirlooms and your bridesmaids can hand them down through the generations.

Know Their Complexions

Another thing to consider when buying a pair of earrings is that whatever you choose should match their complexions. However, if you took the time to find dress colors that look great on all your bridesmaids, the earrings will automatically match their complexions if the earrings match the dress. This is also something that you don?t need to worry about if you choose a classic pair of earrings such as pearls, gold earrings, or silver earrings, since those tend to look great on everyone. Once you select the earrings, you?ll want to find a way to present them. It?s pretty common to wrap them in a pretty box and give them to your bridesmaids during the rehearsal dinner, if you?re having one. You can even take the time to make a nice speech letting them know how much you appreciate all their hard work.
