Something Personal

First and most importantly, call her and make sure that she feels loved, supported and understood during this challenging time. If you’re looking to do something a little extra, we’ve compiled a few ideas below.

Something Sweet

A yummy pick me up is something that anyone can enjoy. Pick a local bakery that will deliver desserts to her doorstep. Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop in Frisco and Sugar Bee Sweets Bakery in Arlington are the places to go for Instagram-worthy sweet pick-me-ups. They taste just as good as they look. If your bride is a macaron connoisseur, we highly suggest Savor Patisserie. This Dallas based bakery specializes in the French macarons and is happy to deliver or ship!

Something Floral

Sending someone flowers is a love language. Find your favorite local florist and have them put together an arrangement for your favorite fiancée. To go the extra mile – find out what her wedding colors are and have the blossoms mimic what her wedding florals will look like!

Something Healthy

Working out is a great way to eliminate stress, which is something a bride with a postponed wedding has a lot of right now. Pure Barre – Coppell is offering at home workouts from its website platforms and Bells & Barbells Wedding Fitness is offering virtual personal training. This is a great opportunity to Facetime or Skype your friend and do the class together! By the way, overall health helps to boost immune systems and promote positivity.

Something Sparkly

Flowers aren’t her vibe? What about a piece of jewelry from a local jeweler! The True Gem is known for their jaw dropping creations and a gem from here will last her a lifetime. Need advice on the perfect piece? We think that the Gold Signet Ring and the Large Pearl Hoops are the right pick-me-up and under $500 staples!

Something Beauty

Make her excited for what’s to come! Get her a gift card to her favorite salon, like The Styling Stewardess or WZ Beauty Studio, that will be good for a blowout or facial once the virus slows down! Remember that gift cards help to support local businesses now and they are good for use later!

Something Artsy

Has she picked a new date? Send her a calligraphy note from Bethany’s Letter Shop or Lonestar Letter with the updated wedding date. Both she and her significant other will cherish this forever!
