BM Gifts

Eighth Anniversary 2500 Comments Combo Breaker
in May 2012 Weddings
For my BMs I really want to frame photos of me and my BMs individually, and put them in frames that say "friends" for 3 of my BMs and "sisters"for my sister and FSIL. The only problem with this plan is that it will take at least 6-8 weeks after the wedding to receive the photos... and typically WP gifts are given at RD... would it be bad to give them their gifts that late? I feel like if I gave them the empty frames it wouldn't have as much meaning as if the photo was of me and that BM on my wedding day.

What do you ladies think?

    I would put a picture that you already have of you with each girl.  Then, when the pics come in, give them the pic from the wedding day to replace it.

    <div>While this is a great idea, I don't actually have any individual shots of me and my BMs, the ones I do have are super old because we mostly do group shots :(</div>

    I agree that's a good idea, but if you only have really old photos that may be a downer! Or it could be fun...you can pick!
    I made sure to take photos with my BM in attendance and MOH at my shower so I had some for this exact reason haha.

    <div>Have you had your shower and/or bparty yet? Those would be good chances to grab a pic! </div><div>
    </div><div>Otherwise, if it were me, I'd probably draw some stupid picture in crayon and write  something like "put wedding photo here" so they'd get the idea. </div>

    Yeah, if you don't have a pic to put in there already, just print out a cute poem or something saying to expect a wedding photo later to put in there.

    This!  Or if you have time, I'd get pics with each one of them.  Sometimes the old photos are wonderful though.  I am doing a collage of old photos with my BMs, I think it's more sentimental to have some of those old memories.
