i also heard it is a norm to give, i think one my previous post i "explained" how my sis gave the AP. qoute an eg, u wanna give ur JM $100 each and u hv 5 JM = $500. so the AP (from the bride) eg is $20, then u remove $100 from the gate crash, so gate crash total AP is $400. so total u still giving $500. something like tt. keke.
yah the buttons/brooches one might be a tad expensive and tedious. but feel like trying out.. haha. wait for the husb to be back end of this month first then ask for his opinion~

Crystaline Okie no prob.
xrevlis: im giving an example, cos like tt the numbers easier to see la. but it all depends on ur comfort level.. afterall, i think give more or less also ok la, ur JMs shldnt mind since they r good frens. haha u want can give $200 or even $2000 each also can ah. see how much is affordable lor. but me n my husb, we dun hv much $$$ la. gg to spend abt 40K on our hse reno next mth, so wedding hv a smaller budget liao, no choice lor. but my JMs they all dont mind the small AP since im also providing them dresses too. they just want me to spend comfortably.
i hv a fren who was v generous, she provided gowns for the day n night and even MUA and also gv an AP close to 1K for her JMs.

Crystaline: Chomel has wide selection of accessories. Hee, even on normal days if i passby d shop, I'll go in to c c look look. Apart from Chomel, u can also check out accessories at Takashimaya Level 1 where the makeup section is located.
If ur budget allows u, can also consider Swarovski. During my buddy's AD, 1 of d JM lend her Swarovski
accessories to d bride & us who were d JMs. V bling bling & elegant.
