The 50 Best Gifts for Thanking Your Maid or Matron of Honor

She's more than just your maid of honor—she's your unlicensed therapist, your volun-told wedding planner, your hype woman and, most importantly, your closest friend. The best way to thank her for it all? A maid of honor gift that's as special as she is.

"One of the most important parts of the maid of honor duty is to support the bride through both the stressful and joyful parts of wedding planning," says Paige Ward, founder of Adorned Gift Co, a Louisiana-based business that specializes in wedding gift boxes. "Gifts are the perfect way to show that you appreciate their support and love during this very special moment in your life," she says.

Need help finding a gift that truly expresses your gratitude to your maid of honor? "The most popular MOH gifts are monogrammed tote bags, monogrammed robes, personalized jewelry boxes and travel cases," Ward says. She adds that relaxing bath products—such as bubble baths, bath bombs and shower steamers—are also good gifts for the maid of honor from the bride. Of course, feel free to think outside the box with gifts that honor (pun intended) your friendship, her hobbies or fun experiences.
