All 5 of my bridesmaids live in different states, I have just been doing things through e-mail to keep them all informed. I just saw them all for my shower this weekend, and they thought it has been working great...nobody said it was impersonal...(and we are close enough, where they would have told me so)

I send out a Bridal Bulletin each month. I talk about the wedding and what is going on with each girl in the BP. It works and they think it is cute.

I did the same thing and they all made fun of me. But my last one is this month and one of my BMs said they would actually miss them.

BUMP!!!

This actually sounds like a good idea. How did you guys do it? Does anyone have a sample of one they can send me?

Re: Keeping bridesmaids informed

I sent out monthly newsletters. Besides updating on stuff I was doing (booking vendors, dresses, etc), I provided them with make-up and hair tips from magazines, sent stories about weddings and opinion polls on everything from flowers to favors.

My bridesmaids loved this. It was a way to keep everyone in the loop (eventhough we always talked through email), plus I think it made them feel important, by being able to offer advice and sharing ideas!

Re: Keeping bridesmaids informed

i sent my bridesmaid a newsletter, and they actually all loved it. i got it from a template from the knot i believe, but i don't know if i have it anymore.

they appreciated the information that was in it.
