have many of you sent letters bridesmaids to be in the bridal party?
i thought this would be a great idea to ask the bridesmaids and groomsmen to be in the bridal party. does anyone have any suggestions in what to write to my fiances siblings. im not that close with them but i want it to be a touching letter to let them know that i want them to be part of our special day. thanks for any ideas

we are asking our bridal party with 'will you be my -----' at our e-party. We are putting the cards at their seats so that they find them when they get there.

I used the BM's cards from frills and yummies (vendor here), and they were great! Someone here also just made her own, I think she got them at Michaels. I think it's a great idea. Try a search here for poems if you need help with them.

For My Bridesmaid KaTLeYeA
In life there are old friends and those who are new, when choosing a bridesmaid it had to be you. From the moment we met you've been the friend, always close by with a shoulder to lend.
So I thank you for all your help and concern, conversation filled days, and all that I've learned.
Without you I don't know what I would have done, certainly not had near as much fun.
In life there are old friends and those who are new, but none like the true friend I've found in you.
Even though we don’t speak everyday and I don’t see you as often as I would like I would be honored if you would stand by me on a winter day when my love is sworn to Ronnie.
Love you always, Theresa

I made 'will you be my____' cards for my girls. Inside them I wrote:
It's hard to believe that in just a little while ___ 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 _____

I found it more personal to ask each one in person. I did each one different:
To my MOH, my FMIL made a beautiful photo album and I wrote a letter and put it in the first page.
For my FSIL I framed a photo of us and the frame said 'There is a sisterness between us' or something like that
Re: have many of you sent letters bridesmaids to be in the bridal party?
I just wrote them all something about my friendship with them, all different and handed the card to them. My maid of honor I made a little more special though I bought her flowers and asked her face to face. She cried so I guess it was good!
A friend of mine invited us to her house cooked us all dinner and read to us how each of our friendships with her was different and how she felt about us.

Here's my poem:
James popped the question And I said yes Now on to the planning From the flowers to the dress The date has been set And the hall has been booked Our love for one another Is all it really took
True we have some time Before our wedding day is here But never too early to remind you friend As to why you are dear And because you are so special to the bride and groom to be There is nothing more that we would want then for you to share in all our glee
So with this much said and not a moment left to waste This bride has one question for you Will you stand beside my place?
And while there are so many things still left for us to choose Like colors, favors, a resort or a cruise There is this one decision that can not be swayed And that is how honored I would be to have you as a Bridesmaid

I used this one:
The day, the dress The bride , the groom The joy, the tears will all come so soon Professing true love To my husband to be with family and friends all watching me I hope the sun will be shining down keep your fingers crossed that I'll fit in my gown! But there's one more thing that needs to be and that's to have you Standing with me.
