Who gives the bridal party the gift? Is it the bridge & groom, or the parents of the groom. I am paying for the rehearsal dinner, along with my ex-husband.

Typically it is the bride that gives the bridesmaids the gifts and the groom who gives the groomsmen the gifts.

Also, why is your ex-husband paying for your rehearsal dinner? That's strange.

I think this is the groom's mother asking the question, so the ex is the groom's father.
