asking the bridal party

other than the 'will you be my bridesmaid' cards, anyone know of how to ask our friends to be in our wedding. the whole bridal party are couples, so we'd like to ask both at the same time.

Re: asking the bridal party

how about having all the couples over for dinner and 'popping the question' to them all at once over dessert or something?

wow you took the words right out of my mouth. I sort of did this with my BMs only. Had them over, had dinner and over wine and dessert, gave them bags with tshirts and cards in them. You can do the same for the entire bridal party. it was fun!

A friend of mine asked her Bridal Party with puzzles...they had to put together the puzzle and it spelled out 'will you be my bridesmaid'. I thought it was cute.

i like the puzzle....dinner's fun but because of distance, we'll have to mail something.

I used a cute little poem. FM me your email address and I can email it to you from home.

Re: asking the bridal party

here are ideas of poems:
The day, the dress
The bride, the groom
The joy, the tears
Will all come to soon

Professing true love
To my husband-to-be

With family and friends
all watching me

Because to me you mean so much
I have one thing to say which I will phrase as such:
Nothing would give me more joy and pride,
Then to have you there right by my side

You’ve stood right beside me throughout thick and thin
And I want you to be there when I marry him.
Many great memories I have shared with your smile,
So, I want you to meet me at the end of the aisle.

Will you be my bridesmaid?

**AND ANOTHER**

Brian 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
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

Will you be my bridesmaid?

I also made shirts and cards

FRONT

BACK

Re: asking the bridal party

that is sooo cute! i wish i had that idea when i asked mine!

i found another one, which might be good for your oot. you send them a bok of flowers and the card can read something like 'these flowers are a symbol of the ones that i would like you to carry.....will you be my bridesmaid?'
you could change the wording because i cant remember exact wording.
