Personalised thank you gifts for your bridesmaids and wedding party

From the Maid of Honour who threw the most memorable hen party to the groomsman who looked after the rings (and didn’t lose them), it takes a whole team to get the best day of your life running smoothly. Without a wedding party, how does the bride navigate using the bathroom in her big dress? Or who will give an inspiring speech with just the right level of humour?

Whether it’s the parent-in-law who helped decorate the venue or the flower girl who made everyone say ‘awww’, why not thank your wedding party with personalised photo gifts?

When planning your big day, you might wonder if wedding party gifts are necessary. While they're not a must, they are a heartfelt way to show appreciation to those who played a special role — like the friend who calmed your nerves with a cup of tea or the usher who ensured everything ran smoothly. Each person’s contribution made your day perfect.

Gifts can be as simple or as elaborate as you like, and personalised photo gifts make ideal presents. Picture this: your bridesmate’s face lighting up when they see a beautifully framed snapshot from the summer you spent in Cornwall. Or your groomsman chuckling as he receives a photo magnet with a candid memory from the time his tent collapsed at a music festival.

Create a Mini Photo Book filled with memories of your journey together. Include snapshots from the hen party, fun outings, and those moments that perfectly capture your friendship, whether you’ve known each other from childhood or met later in life.

Bring a touch of sparkle to their day with a Silver Glitter Photo Block. Choose a favourite photo of you and your bridesmaid, and watch their face light up when they see it encased in glitter. It's a stylish and fun piece they can display at home or at work, reminding them of the important role they played in your wedding.

Having a winter wedding? Choose a Snow Frame Photo Block instead for a flurry of seasonal decor.

Quick and easy, an instant print photo makes a great bridesmaid gift. Use an instax Link WIDE Printer to embellish a photo with a frame and a thank you message. You could print a photo from your friendship journey or capture and print a moment from your wedding morning.

What about the rest of your wedding party?

When it comes to thanking your groomsmen on your wedding day, choosing the right gift can make all the difference. Cufflinks or a pocket watch might be a traditional choice but something more practical they can use every day can also be a thoughtful yet practical gift.

Magnetic Photo Frames are perfect for adding a personal touch to your groomsmen’s homes or offices. Choose your favourite photos from memorable moments shared together — maybe from the stag do or that time you all tried to dance and failed spectacularly.

A personalised mug is the ideal present for the mate who can’t function without that morning coffee.

Create a Custom Ceramic Mug or each of your wedding party with a photo that brings back great memories. Maybe it’s a shot of your Best Man in fancy dress or a group photo from a night out when you all thought karaoke was a good idea. These mugs are sure to become their new favourite for their morning cuppa.

When it comes to thanking the parents and parents-in-law for their support and love throughout the wedding planning process, choosing the right gifts can be a heartfelt way to show your appreciation.

Add one of these to the classic flower bouquets to make sure they all feel valued for their help in making reception decorations, helping with the catering, or contributing financially.

A Premium Canvas Print is an elegant way to display a moment. Present your new in-laws with a canvas of a family photo taken during your mother-in-law's milestone birthday party. You might want to gift your own parents a canvas print displaying a seascape photo your dad is so proud of.

Is your wedding at the end of the year? If your wedding is in November or December, a Personalised Photo Calendar is a handy yet thoughtful gift. Fill it with photos from your engagement party, family gatherings, and other memorable events from the past year. How about including pictures from your in-laws’ epic motorhome trip around Europe?

Each month, they’ll turn the page to a new memory — plus, it’ll keep them organised for the rest of the upcoming year. Slim, A4, or A5, choose the calendar that will best suit their kitchen.

Add a touch of personal flair to their living space with Personalised Photo Coasters. Choose a set of photos that will make them laugh or reminisce. Snaps from summer holidays, a relaxed family gathering in the garden, or playful portraits of their beloved pet all make great subjects.

Does your dad like to host a big Sunday lunch every weekend? Add some Personalised Place Mats to the mix so he can serve up a roast using unique, nostalgic tableware.

If you’re feeling creative in the run up to your wedding, put a photo storybook together. Fill it with photos that tell a narrative and star your little one as the main character. It could be a story about their experience as part of your wedding party.

Our intuitive photo book creation tool makes it easy to customise your pages, adding frames, backgrounds, and captions. We also have some beautiful pre-set templates to make achieving a cohesive design fast and straightforward.

For a thank you gift that makes the most of spontaneous moments from the day, go for instax prints. Use your instax camera or Link Printer to print instant photos of the children in your wedding party in their special outfits.
