We all have different styles...take ideas from this site and make them your own...or just read and enjoy...you are you and that's why your day is your day, and your way...your way of doing things is special to you and that's all that matters...you are in no way inferior!

Awww don't feel like that. I'm sure so many brides (including myself) don't make up every little unique and fun idea about their wedding themselves. We share ideas and get inspiration from each other

Re: Does anyone else feel this way ever?
Honestly, I really think it depends on the way you interact with your friends... Personally, I could never see msyelf writing up a poem and such. Just not my style. I'm a pretty blunt/dont beat around the bush kinda person, so I will just ask them. I don't have that type of rel with my girls where we scream and yell when we see each other and run to one another for the hugs and kisses... That was just never me i dunno...
But I def want to do something for my junior bm's and junior gm... They are still young enough where they would loveeee to get something cute and feel all special

Re: Does anyone else feel this way ever?
thanks girls!
All of our people already know they're in it. Maybe I could give them something special at my upcoming engagement party? What do you think?

I think that's a cute idea. I've heard of sort of like a care package with manicure supplies, a little notepad and pen and the best... asprin for those bridezilla moments

Ok, I'm not alone. It would never occur to me to bake a cookie in the shape of a dress and give it to my friend, although the cookies in that forum thread did look delicious.

Re: Does anyone else feel this way ever?
i understand how you feel - i totally dropped the ball on asking everyone - i did it the night i got engaged LOL and i just said 'you are in it' i didnt even ask! LOL
i stink
BUT what i did was i bought wedding paper - and i got all wedding scrapbooking stuff - they have REALLY cute BM stuff. . .and i made a 'newsletter'
I included all the information they needed like dresses and stuff but if you arent ready for that you can just thank them for being in it and give them some information ( like include everyone's phone numbers etc) mine included:
a thank you where to buy the dress and how much, plus alterations what kind of shoes they could get ( any ) lol hair and makeup info if they want to get it done with me and other little things like that!
its not too late! lol

Re: Does anyone else feel this way ever?
I understand exactly how you feel. My friends just knew they were in my wedding. My BF since kindergarden told ME that she was my Maid Of Honor. But there are other cool little details i have planned for my wedding. No two brides are exactly alike, how boring would that be anyway

OMG I was thinking the same thing when I read the cool ways people asked their bridesmaids! Wanna know what I did? I called my 3 bridesmaids and said, 'Youre gonna be a bridesmaid okay?' Couldnt get any worse than that. But its cool cause theyre all family. Like another poster said, it depends how you interact with your friends, family...
