I made mine through shutterfly - it was really easy and cheap (about $2.50) and they'll even mail it for you.

Here is what it looks like - but you can have any border you want...lots of options...

The inside says...

It's hard to believe
that in just a little while
Mike and I will be
walking down the aisle

Nothing would give me
more joy and pride
than to have you right there
by my side!

Will you be my bridesmaid?

I can't really make out the wording, did you word that yourself, or did shutterfly assist?

Re: Where can I find those cute cards to ask my friends to be bridesmaids?

I used Rebecca at Isadora Ink. She makes 'Will you be my' and 'Thank you Cards'. They were real beautiful and I got them really quick. She even included each of my BMs/MOH's name on the cards.

Plus they were reasonably priced :)

Samples of her work






eta: The insides are blank.

Re: Where can I find those cute cards to ask my friends to be bridesmaids?

i used the same cards that i used for my engagement party and used this poem as a guidline,


(Name), you have helped me through some trying times,
Spared some change when I did not have a dime,
Held my hair back after prom and swore you would never tell my mom,
We have fought over boys (only God knows why),
We have laughed together and we have even cried.
So, please if you’ll do just one more little task,
I promise that this is all I will ever ask:
Will you wear a dress of (color), while I will wear my dress of white - -
Say you will be my bridesmaid on my special wedding night?


combined the above one and this one for my cousin who is a BM


You are my cousin; this is true.
But I want you to know you're my 'sister' too.
There for me when I needed you most
Opened your home to me, a gracious host.

We've shared some good times and sad ones too,
But your friendship always saw me through.
You've made me laugh when I wanted to cry
And held my hand when I could only sigh.

On this precious day as I become Mon's wife,
I plan to be with him for the rest of my life,
But don't you dare worry, cry, or fret
He has not taken your place; that you can bet.

He will be my husband, but you are my girl,
And that you will be until I leave this world.
So always know that I truly love you
And thank God for giving me a 'sister' that's true.

Re: Where can I find those cute cards to ask my friends to be bridesmaids?

I made my own. I bought the materials at Michaels. I don't have a picture of them right now. They are in my work computer. If you search online as well, they have dozens of website that sell them as well. My BM loved them even more because I made them myself.

Re: Where can I find those cute cards to ask my friends to be bridesmaids?

Another cute idea is buying those little 'how to be a bridesmaid' or 'bridesmaid 411', etc...books for each of your bridesmaids. I have a few out of town girls so I mailed them each a different bridesmaid book with a message written in the front, asking them to be my bm of course. The books are so cute and they can use them at least:)

I bought mine on ebay (see below). You can order the dress color to match your colors. Then I wrote a note and added a poem.

Yupp these are the same ones I bought, same vendor. Rebecca from Isadora Ink. I had mine made in a burgundy color with a white bow to match my colors. I even had every BMs name written on it :)

They loved the cards!
