Bridal shower hostess gift ideas are often considered for whoever plans the event. While not a requirement, a small present is appreciated. Whether or not a token of appreciation is given, a handwritten "Note of Thanks" should definitely be sent to each person involved in the party plans.
The bridal shower may be given by an individual, such as a friend or relative. In this case, the bridal party may want to give a gift to the hostess. This event is often a joint effort by the bridesmaids or wedding party. The bride may want to thank them. The number of hostesses, and the budget, will influence the type of "Thank You" gift.

• Gift certificate: with the variety available, you can't go wrong. Most stores offer some type of gift certificate.
