nina! i’ve been neglecting blog-world for so long, i had no idea you were getting married! CONGRATS!!! you are going to make a GORGEOUS bride! back when i got married, nearly 12 years ago, i took my “maids” out to lunch and asked them…not very creative, but j and i only had 2 months from engagement to wedding. not that we needed to, but i was a wedding coordinator at the time, and i knew what i wanted, and we didn’t want to wait. everything just kind of fell into place… congrats again, girl!

We had a 6 month engagement, too. It was crazy, but when people asked me why we were rushing I said that it was because I’d rather have 6 crazy months that ended up with us being together sooner as opposed to a leisurely engagement that meant being far apart (he lived 2 hours away). I was lucky enough to have all but one of my bridesmaids living within reasonable driving distance. So to ask them, I took each of them out to lunch or dinner one-on-one. I wanted to spend some time with them and ask them personally. I even did this with both of my sisters, who lived with me at the time. The only one who I didn’t take out to lunch was my future sister-in-law who lived in New Orleans at the time (I lived in Indiana). We didn’t know each other that well, so I made a point of calling her and emailing her so that we could know one another better. When I did ask her, I did it by hand-written letter

I drew cards with the tackiest bridesmaids dresses I could imagine… there were crystals and butt-bows involved. Then I wrote a personal note to each girl inside. I wanted something tongue-in-cheek and they all loved them!

Also: Please pick the Leila Rose dresses… I still want one for myself!

Yay for you! I also planned my wedding in a short amount of time (six months). I knew what I wanted and wouldn't change our engagement length for anything. Things all fell together perfectly. .-= Lauren´s last blog .. =-.

That's a loaded question for me! You see, all of my original bridesmaids were my family members. Yes, I said original bridesmaids. That's because they all decided to move across the country right before my wedding and not come back. So I replaced them with friends. I didn't get to have a chance to ask them in a cool way! .-= Jenna´s last blog ..The best toys are free =-.

girl I agree on the chiavari Chairs… though expensive, they make a huge difference! I can only imagine how fabulous your wedding will be!
