Weddings mark a new beginning in your life. Every little moment that is celebrated becomes a part of your memory that you know you will cherish forever. From unexpected surprises to last-minute goof-ups (is it even a wedding without some chaos?) and obviously the special memories celebrated with happy tears.
A wedding is not just special for the bride and groom but is an equally important and special event for their family members, friends and people who genuinely care about them. Indian weddings are grand but what is even grander is the celebration of relations during weddings. Every relative gets to play some special role, be it the mother of the bride or sister of the groom, grandparents of the bride, or the groom's uncle, every relationship is given its importance and that is the beauty of Indian weddings.
One such relation is the girl gang of the bride. They take care of EVERYTHING - from the bride's outfit accessory to handling her wedding nerves and anxiety, making sure all her needs and wants are met for her big day- this girl gang gives it their all. The bridesmaids are present all around and understand the brides' needs with just one look. If you are a bride-to-be reading this, you need to make sure your girlfriends feel as special as they all are by surprising them with something they wouldn't expect you to do as an appreciation gift. We have made a list of hampers and gift ideas you can choose to surprise your girl gang with during all of the festivities of your grand Indian wedding!
HALDI CEREMONY
Haldi festivities finally make you feel like a bride. The post-haldi glow is always surreal- thanks to your friends and cousins who literally cover you down from head to toe in haldi. For the bridesmaids who help you get back your original self after you end up looking like a walking yellow flag, they deserve a little something to mark the ‘shubh’ inauguration of all wedding festivities. Gift them a custom hamper or a gift set with floral jewellery that they can wear (mang tikkas and hathphool) during the haldi. You can add some dry fruits as they represent the onset of an auspicious event. Add a polaroid photo with your bridesmaid to make things a little more special and cute!
MEHANDI
Mehandi is always fun. With lots of music, the fragrance of Mehandi set the tone for the event- it is an important day not only for the bride but also a big task day for the bridesmaids. From taking care of your Mehandi so that it doesn't wipe off from somewhere, to picking your dress up for you as you walk, and feeding you while you have your hands and feet in Mehandi- all these are the duties that only a diligent bridesmaid gang can fulfill. Make sure to spice up their energy by giving them a custom Mehandi gift set. Add a fancy clutch with some gorgeous earrings that would come to their use later for sure and also a skincare sheet mask because you too, care about their skin as much they do for yours. You can also add some chocolate as mood and energy boosters with a custom note from your side.
SANGEET
Sangeet is the night of full madness and craziness and just the right occasion to glam up and dance your heart out to Bollywood songs. Your bridesmaid gang makes sure to tick all the boxes when it comes to making sure you get all the limelight and match all your steps for your big performance. Boost up their energy with a custom glam hamper with all the right necessities to make sure to get their serotonin levels high! Add a custom name makeup bag, a mug, some candies, and a photo frame as a memoir. You can also go for a full movie-themed hamper with goodies in resemblance to their favorite movie or song- just the right way to spice things up and make them feel super special!
THE WEDDING
The wedding- the day everybody has been waiting for and preparing for. The nerves you as a bride get to feel on your big day is a whole different kind of feeling. These are emotions that can only be felt and never put down into words and the people who are always there around to help you stay calm, truly are the ones you need to show all forms of care for. Your bridesmaids keep a check on every detail of your outfit, run up and down to make sure all things go smoothly for your day and whatnot. Such efforts and such relations need to be celebrated.
The surprise gift that you plan for the big ceremony needs to be as grand as your love for them. Opt for luxurious and regal box packaging and get your girlfriend's name customized on each one of them. You can choose the contents of the boxes on the basis of the individual bonds you share with them with some inside jokes they can instantly relate to. Write a handwritten note to each one of them by thanking them for standing by you through all the mood swings and in-betweens of the wedding festivities. Lastly, crack open a bottle of your favorite wine to mark a successful end to a successful marriage!
In all the highs and lows, your girl gang has always been there for you. We hope these gift recommendations were helpful and would inspire you to make your wedding festivities even more happening.

Happy Celebrations, and Happy Gifting!
