Custom Apparel Ideas for Your Bridesmaids

Are you searching for a creative way to thank your bridesmaids? Take a look at top custom apparel ideas to give your fab friends during your bachelorette party, bridal shower, or rehearsal dinner.

Personalized Tees

A custom t-shirt is a blank canvas that gives you the chance to thank each bridesmaid in a personal way. Instead of stock shirts or half a dozen of the same tee's, create individual apparel options for each of these friends.

How should you customize each shirt? If you're not sure where to start, consider one of these personalized bridesmaid t-shirt ideas:

• Nicknames. Do you have cute nicknames for your best friends? Create a custom design with each bridesmaid's nickname splashed across the front.
• Initials. A standout script with each friend's first, middle, and last initial is an elegant way to gift your bridesmaids with the ultimate in personalized apparel.
• Photos. Customize each tee with a photo taken during the wedding planning process. These could include wedding dress shopping, engagement party, or bridal shower pictures.

Before you choose a design, discuss the options with the custom shirt or apparel company. Custom creation professionals can provide expert insight into design ideas, color choices, fonts, and other similar tee-related issues.

Custom Sweats

Long gone are the days when sweat suits were only worn in high school gym classes. A comfy set of sweats can create a casual style that you can easily customize for your bridesmaid bunch.

Like tees, you can add nicknames, initials, or pictures to sweatshirts and sweatpants. But you can also personalize these pieces with:

• A sweet saying. Customize sweatpants with a saying or quote about friendship, love, or partnership. Design personalized pants with the script on the length of the leg and add a sweatshirt with the same quote on the front or back.
• Key dates. Add your engagement date, the day you asked your BFF to become your maid of honor, or other notable month/date/year combos to the front and back of personalized sweatshirts.
• Color and name combos. Choose custom colors that match your wedding hues or pick a shade for each of your bridesmaids. Personalize the back of the sweatshirt with each friend's last name and add your wedding date to the pant legs.

Along with apparel, you can also customize other bridesmaid gifts. Create wedding-themed totes and hats to coordinate with personalized tees, sweatshirts, and sweatpants. Fold or roll the apparel items, tie them with ribbon, and pack them in the bag with a baseball hat and wedding-themed favors.
