How to say…Will you be my bridesmaid?
Newly engaged and in the beginning stages of planning my wedding, something I
was really looking forward to was asking a few dear friends to be my
bridesmaids. I wanted to do this in a way that would make the girls feel special
and would help them look forward to a year of wedding fun! I scoured the
internet in search of will you be my bridesmaid ideas, but nothing seemed quite
right. Then, with perfect timing, my colleague Liz presented her holiday gift,
which included an ingenious enclosure with recipe card inserts. It was so
darling and the perfect format for my will you be my bridesmaid
presentation!
Using Liz’s recipe ensemble as my guide I printed cards with information I
wanted my bridesmaids to have. The cards were cut with varying widths allowing
the card titles to appear in succession. I printed and mounted a Will You Be My
Bridesmaid? tag on the inside panel, which greeted the girls as they opened the
enclosure. In all this project took diagonal
enclosures, fine
paper for liners and decorative elements, cover weight 8.5
x 11 paper cut down, and free fonts found online.
The cards included: our wedding date and location, the list of bridesmaids,
rehearsal and wedding day details, a personal letter to each bridesmaid…and my
favorite, a card with the silhouette of a bridesmaid dress to represent the
bridal shopping to come.
This project was so worth the extra time – I will never forget the smiles and
tears that came when my friends opened their packages. I know they will spend a
year making me feel incredibly special, so I was happy to do the same for them
while asking them one very important question.
