Looking for a hen party or engagement gift or just looking to spoil a soon-to-be bride? There are so many lovely things you can get for a pal that is getting married. If you’re looking to make a bit of a fuss, a novelty gift with ‘Mrs’ on it or something she can use on the Big Day to up the excitement will go down a treat, like these fab robes from WowWee.ie or a bridal hanger. If you’re after cute trinkets, look no further than Kate Spade – we are so excited they’ve opened their doors in Ireland, with a new outlet store at Kildare Village (woo bargains), and they recently launched their UK site as well for those that prefer to shop from the comfort of their desk or couch. They have so many cute gift ideas for maids and brides if you and the girls are looking for a pre-wedding gift (they even have a Mr and Mrs bag if you fancy sharing your news with the world) so we’ve included lots of lovely Kate Spade finds below too. Here’s 12 gorgeous gift ideas for a bride-to-be…
1. The dress plays a big part in the wedding day so surprise the bride with a fabulous hanger fit for the occasion. NotontheHighstreet, Etsy and BHLDN all stock fab variations – this particular Heirloom Mr & Mrs set is from BHLDN, priced $28. We also LOVE this cute Bride’s Dressing Room Door Hanger!
2. Mark the occasion with some champers. Pop a bottle of your pal’s favourite Prosecco in this cute bag from Kate Spade (£20) and let the celebrations begin. WowWee.ie also do amazing personalised wine labels if you want to make it extra personal.

This pretty sweetheart locket (€18 from The Parisian Bride) can hold two pictures and can be clipped to lingerie, garter or wedding gown so that the bride can keep those special people close on this important day (there are three different styles available but this blue crystal version will work as a ‘something blue’ as well!)
12. (Main Image) We love floral kimonos and it doesn’t get much better than this pretty one with ‘Bride’ embellished on the back, €34.99 from WowWee.ie. They also stock fluffy versions and hoodies for the colder months as well as personalised robes for maids!
