My DIY Bridesmaid Cards...




Unfortunately, my bridesmaids do not live locally, so asking them in person was not an option. So last week I made and sent my bridesmaid cards. I think they turned out pretty well (these are just 2 out of the 6). Let me note that these are not the colors of my wedding. I thought these cards should be girly and fun. The text


was in chocolate brown and I added two little crystals on the ring-bearer. I thought it added a little sparkle. Each of the cards had a different poem ending with the question of "Will you be my bridesmaid?" All of my bridesmaids had a laugh because I made a label on the outside envelope stating not to open the letter until they called me. I didn't want to just ask them over the phone, so I thought the letter would be a nice addition.

For Ryan's nieces, I found a special flower girl poem. His two nieces will be our flower girls and his new nephew will be our ring-bearer. We also bought both of his nieces a cute flower girl book that comes with a flower necklace. TOO CUTE!
It's all about the details!!!
