I'm just curious....I noticed that some LIW brides have invited other LIW brides to their weddings. Were you both friends prior to joining LIW? Or did you become friends through LIW? I think it's so nice when I see when one LIW bride attended the wedding for another LIW bride!

Re: If you invited a LIW bride to your wedding......
I think if I invited all of the LIW Brides who I enjoy corresponding with, my numbers would be a little too high. I think it is a great gesture to invite to a ceremony. We have all developed kinships with each other and shared so much that it is nice to see people walk down the aisle - to see the advice we share be put into action. I suppose though if you develop true friendships either before or after LIW, it is more than appropriate to invite as a full guest.

Re: If you invited a LIW bride to your wedding......
One LIW bride came to my reception because we became VERY close and good friends through a year of planning together. She, along with 3 other brides I have developed a friendship with came to the ceremony. It was so nice to have them there since they knew every little thing I went through with planning.

Re: If you invited a LIW bride to your wedding......
I was invited and went to 1-LIW wedding ceremony and reception (Oakslady) because she was VERY under her minimum and a few of us LIW girls came to the rescue (as much as we could) and I went to 1-LIW ceremony (Somethingblu) b/c we'd been chatting alot online and found out we had alot in common, including the same church, same monsignor, same hall, etc!!!

I invited one that I met after LIW. However we became acquanted through non LIW stuff.. We had chatted a little online, and then ran into each other somewhere else.
I invited my MOH ... I have know her for a while and I invited a friend I worked with. She introduced me to LIW.

don't worry ....you will form friendships in time...
I felt VERY CLOSE with the girls who were getting married at the same time as me.... Friendships develope as you go through the same experiences together...

Re: If you invited a LIW bride to your wedding......
Hmmm, there were 5 LIW brides there, 6 invited.
2 were friends from college (LBF404 and Jax430), and the rest were new friends from LIW (Eroxgirl, MrsWask, AliasPook@aol.com, and Rob-Luvs-Me who couldn't make it because she was on her Honeymoon). I was at their weddings too.
