October 2013 Weddings

Officially asking my bridesmaids tomorrow - plan & pic included =)

So I dont know if Im late in doing this or not but tomorrow I will officially ask my bridesmaids to be in my wedding. I think some of them must have an idea, but I havent offically asked.

I aked them to go have dinner tomorrow and they have agreed. I will have 3 BMs and 1 MOH. I found several cute ways to ask on Pinterest and sorta combined certain wording and such to make it my own. Im doing the Ringpop in a box to ask them because I thought it was too cute and since I'm on a budget, this was a better choice than a bottle of booze. Here is a picture of one of the boxes.





Btw, I made the boxes myself out of cardstock and crumbled up some paper at the bottom to prop up the ringpop. I think they are adorable and cant wait to see their faces when they get their little boxes!! Smile

  • Are you positive all will accept?
    S'mores. Just S'mores please.
  • Until I came on the knot I had never heard of needing to ask people to be a bridesmaid in a special way. I just asked my two best friends and my FSIL in person. 

    I think your ring pops are very cute.
  • I think your idea is very cute.  
  • One of my friends did that when she asked me.

    I just like... asked :x.

     Yes.... its my 2 nieces (2 and 4 years younger - we grew up like cousins) and my cousin (same age as me). My MOH will be my Twin =)
  • Thanks ladies.... I just thought it was a cute thing to do.
  • I think its a very cute idea.  Looking back I wish I did that.  I just asked each girl when I saw them in person.  Which was fine and they were excited.  I would have liked to have been more creative though.

    Love it.  :)  Have fun!

  • That is how I asked.  I brought them all to dinner and gave them their boxes.  It was a good way for everyone to get to "re-meet" each other.
