Bridal Party Shower Gift
Just looking for some ideas.....
What (if anything) did your bridesmaids give you for your shower as a group?
(I can't ask over on LIW bc I do not want the bride to see.)
Thanks!
ETA: Any other ideas you have seen even if it was not for you?

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
They got me the Wok that was on my registry, and a trunk filled with candles and a poems that explained what each candle was for (all the milestones)
I was just a BM and we gave the bride a basket of wine with a similar poem about when to open each bottle of wine (again, all the milestones)...

We just gave my SIL a gift certificate for travelocity to use toward her honeymoon or any getaway. She loved it.

Mine gave me a huge basket which included my handheld kitchen aid mixer, and I think practically all the kitchen utensils/gadgets/accessories and towels that I registered for!

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
mine gave me my everyday china set. 
ive also given as a BW their luggage set, their cookware set, a laptop (what they asked for) and large gift cards. I think we even did a lingerie of the month club once for the bride who already had everything! haha I really like the idea of giving money towards a travel agent or travelocity or something for the honeymoon too.

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
We each bought individual gifts for my SIL but we also all chipped in and got her a wine cooler. And instead of a wishing well gift, we asked that each guests bring a bottle of wine. And we filled her cooler and a basket with wine.

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
My BMs were originally going to give me my margaritaville for my shower. It was about $300 but there were issues. 
They wound up getting me separate gifts.

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
This is what we did for my good friend.
A bunch of Lingerie pinned on a clothes line...the MOH read a cute lingerie poem and she opened the box and pulled it out. It was very cute and useful for the HM

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
My BP didn't get my a gropu gift, but they did the poem with the cleaning stuff
"you are entering a new ERA, he won't always be MR CLEAN, give it your ALL" etc
My MOH gave me vera wang toasting flutes, which I loved.
Also, my mom's friends made me 2 baskets. One of kitchen stuff, like towels, mixing bowls, every gadget imaginable and little things. and another basket with wine glasses and 2 nice bottles of wine.
I really like the wine for differnet occasions gift. I also did not get but expected/wish I had gotten a honeymoon bag.
ETA: It's of course really nice to have sets finished. Like some family members got together (including one of ym BM) and got me 3 place settings of fine china and 8 place settings of flatware, but the really memorable gifts were the ones that were put together in baskets., They had that element of surprise.

Re: Bridal Party Shower Gift
They gave us an awesome gift. They paid for all of our excursions on our honeymoon. I think they gave the TA a set amount of money and then we were able to select the excursions based upon that number. It was so great to not have to pay for those things. They also gave us a nice beach bag, his/her beach towels, his/her "I Do" or "We Do" (I forget) flip flops, sunblock, cute T-shirts and two other pairs of flip flops for us. It was such a great gift.
