The Best Bridal Shower Gifts According to a Bride in 2024
1
The only pan she will ever need
AlwaysPan® 2.0
This is the preferably Pan I’ve ever used! I have an older model and my husband and I are kicking ourselves that we haven’t added a new pan to our lineup yet. While she may already have a few pots and pans in mind, we promise she’ll reach for this one the most. Why? Because it’s a 10-in-1 pan that braises, sears, steams, strains, sautés, roasts, boils, bakes, serves, stores… it literally does it all!

The cutest claw clip
Hair clip for the bride
How cute is that?! A bridal claw clip is the cutest accessory in all of those getting ready photos! Plus, it’s super handy when she’s up late planning and choosing color schemes.

A film camera for the wedding season
Kodak Half-Frame Reusable Film Camera
This is such a cute idea – help her capture all the beautiful moments during wedding season with a reusable film camera! My husband and I bought a disposable camera that we used to take fun photos during our wedding weekend, and now I wish I had another one for the parties, the bachelorette party, and everything in between! This camera is a step up from a regular disposable camera and takes great shots. After the wedding, she can get the film developed and watch all the great moments again.
