Asking My Friends to be Bridesmaids
I really wanted to do something special and creative for each of my Bridesmaids when I asked them to be a part of Rich and I's wedding since they spending money and taking time out to help us celebrate a very special day in our lives. I thought long and hard of something practical and fun that I could do for each of them. Here is what I came up with:
(Each girl received a hand painted wine glass that matched their eye and hair color. Glasses were found at Von Maur)
(Wine came from Buck Creek Winery)
All of my Bridesmaids enjoy a good glass of wine (as do I). So, I talked to the owner of the winery and together we created custom labels for the bottle that read...
Each label had a calla lily as the background (since we all know my obsession with calla lilies). Lastly, with the bottle of wine and the wine glass I put together a card that had a picture of Rich and I.
Each Bridesmaid seemed to love the personal touch and creativity of the gift! Hopefully all will get good use out of the wine glasses and enjoy the bottle of wine! Most of all, I am blessed to have such great friends and future sister-in-law who are all going to be a part of our big day!!!

The day, the dress
The bride, the groom
The joy, the tears
Will all come so soon
Professing true love
To my husband-to-be
With family and friends
All watching me
I hope the sun will
Be shining down,
Keep your fingers crossed
That I'll fit in my gown…
But there's just one more thing
that there needs to be…
and that's to have you
Standing with me!
Will you be my bridesmaid?
