Idea for Bridesmaids gifts
I was thinking of getting these bouquest holders for my BM as bridesmaids gifts. They come with the stand, so it can double as a vase in the future.
We also buying the girls there dresses, which isn't their gift, but they are getting seperates, and almost all of them are choosing tops they can wear again with another outfit.
Do you guys think this is ok, or is it too 'wedding centered' of a gift?

I think it's pretty weddingy, but it depends on your bridesmaids. If they would enjoy it then yes, it's an excellent idea.

Personally, I'll admit it's neat, but not something I would use. It is just a little girlie for me though - I prefer plain vases. But if you really want them to have the holders for the wedding, and since you are also buying their dresses, I think you could claim that as your "gift".

I love them... but if I was a bridesmaid, I would probably not use them again. I don't know your bridesmaids style though. Just being honest... I don't know if it is in your budget, but maybe getting the holders for them anyways and also getting them something else, like a spa gift certificate or some earrings (you can find cheap ones all over the place), or something that they can wear again. I do like the stainless ones the best... but thats my personal taste.

I like the silver ones, definitely not the white ones. I love the little name chain on it too. I would make sure I found a use for it, and buy myself flowers every now and then.

I do like the silver ones WAY better. I agree that if you are buying them their dresses you might want to consider that their gift. If this was given to me, its not my style but I would find a way to use it some how because of the fact that a dear friend gave it to me.
