I wanted to do something a little fun and creative for my BM's - two already knew they "got the job" and were expecting a card, or a cookie, but ooooooh no, they got these babies:
Will You Be My Bridesmaid First Aid Kits!
Each kit comes with a card with a poem asking them to be my MOH/BM, and inside there is a piece of paper explaining the contents:
-
Notepad – to jot down all of your ideas, which I promise to at least listen to
-
Marbles – an extra set; in case I lose my marbles along the way, you can lend me a few
-
Cookie – a quick pick-me-up when your blood sugar levels are bottoming out
-
Stress Ball – you can squeeze this instead of wringing my neck when I start to drive you crazy
-
Tylenol – for that headache you’re bound to get the hundredth time I change my mind on our wedding theme and want to tell you all about it
-
Vodka RedBull – in case the Tylenol isn’t enough (<------my MOH got the Vodka RedBull, another BM got Jager RedBull, and the other got Patron. Basically, they got their drink of choice.)
-
Picture of the Happy Couple – a reminder of why you signed up for this in the first place. We’re so happy to have you as part of our special day!
While I did modify things a bit to suit my BMs and myself, I can't take full credit for this fab idea. I got the inspiration one (very late) night while browsing past PW forum posts. I could never find that post again after the first view, so I have no idea who posted the idea...but THANKS! If you know, please pass along the info, and I'll be happy to give credit where credit is due.

These are one of the greatest bm gifts I've have ever seen. The addition of alcohol made me laugh so hard. I was sad that I had given half my bm's their "Will you be my BMs" gifts when I first saw yours--I'm also sure they would have loved a mickey with theirs! |

Where did you get those first aid tins!?!? |
|

The tins are plain white tins from Michaels (bought with a coupon - holla!), and the red cross is made from red Duck tape (also from Michaels). |

Too much fun :) You went above and beyond...love it! I wish I would've researched this more than I did....I sent photos to my bridesmaids of anonymous ladies in ugly shiny gold bridesmaids dresses with their faces photo-shopped in and asked them "if you will be my bridesmaid I promise I won't make you wear an ugly dress like this". love your page....great details! |

I "L" CAPITAL "OF" this idea!!! I can't wait to use it for my BM'S!!! Question...the card inside that you show with their name on it...is that the card that explains the contents of the kit? |
