'Will you be my bridesmaid?'

How'd you do it?

Does anyone know where I could buy a card? Would a hallmark store have that? hmmm

I don't want to get crafty and make them

i just did it over the phone, though a card is definately more sentimental.

A word of caution: be careful. some friends may just assume they'll be in the bridal party and say something along those lines 'ooh i can't wait to get my BM dress.'

(Not giving one to my sis- I live with her and see her EVERY DAY)

thanks....

Go to Kate's Paperie, they have cards for that.

Or, you can do waht i did- i found a card in Kate's Paperie that had a quote on it:
Dear 'jessica'
You are special to us in so many ways.
Will you please be a bridesmaid for Nick and I on our wedding day?

We love you,
Ang & Nick.

OK, I just looked- they're only in NYC or CT.

I'm in Suffolk County 24/7.

There's some paper store in Farmingdale, isn't there?

I don't know the store in farmingdale. I'm trying to find the cards for you so you can order them online..

Re: 'Will you be my bridesmaid?'

aw, you're such a sweetheart.

I probably won't order them online- I want to give them out on Saturday at a party we'll all be at.

Thank you so much for all your info!

I went to Staples and bought pretty paper and wrote them a personal letter/poem. I have seen the cards online - search under bridesmaids and you should find a bunch of sites.

I made cards (card stock, poem about friends and changed some words to it and bought scrapbook stickers of wedding dress and stuff) My sister was my Matron Of Honor and my best friend from HS is my Maid of Honor. I thougt it was cheesie giving my sister one but she loved it has it in her china cabinet and everyone looks at it and loves it! I also gave them little gifts (personalized stationery). I wanted to do something for my BMs too but they ruined it for each other so I still have them at home. I'll give it to them soon enough I guess lol

Suggestions - do a get together w/ them and give them at the same time.
If you have a friend who isn't in the wedding explain to them how you made your decision and how you can't have sooo many people you'd prefer to keep it smaller (that's what I had to do).
