Wedding Blog
On to my next girly project! I wanted to incorporate the quote we used in our invitations “Live, Laugh and Love” so since I was having a hard time deciding on the Newsletter Name, I had the brilliant idea of using the quote instead. I used one of the templates from Microsoft Word Publisher. I printed them onto ivory linen paper from Staples and attached them together with copper brads along the left side, thus achieving the overall look of vintage and chic. Many sleepless nights later I was done! 
Yeay!
I am still contemplating on making another one, to give the girls an update on what’s been happening since they received the first one. Miss Eggplant’s newsletters looked soooo amazing!

Share this post: Bridesmaids Newsletter Version 1
love the layout! & pink + brown is such a lovely combination
Very pretty newsletter! I never did these for my bridesmaids, then again I only have 3 so it’s not too hard to call them up or email them, and we were able to all go pick out bridesmaid dresses together over Christmas break. I do plan on making a nice little wedding day/wedding weekend timeline for everyone though.
Do you have a lot of BMs who don’t know each other and live really far away?
I love your newsletters. I did them for my girls too and it was one of my favorite things to do. It really helped them know what was going on with the plans.
What a totally romantic, sweet newsletter. I love the pink & brown + the scripted font.
your girls will love it if you do another one (that is, if you have time). I’m thinking about doing one more just to wrap up loose ends. Something with a wedding timeline, maps, directions, etc.
Ms. Jellybeans,
I love your newsletter. I’ve been wanting to do one, but I just sit there looking at the page not knowing where to start. Is there any way you would email me a pdf? If there’s too much sensitive personal info on it, I understand you not wanting to share it. I’m at tranceforchange at hotmail.
Thanks girls!
Iris- half my girls are here in Ottawa and half in Kali
Griffen- Ill send it to you tomorrow… If I forget just email me to remind me please
Miss Eggplant- I wish I was as creative as you. I adore your newsletter. I am thinking of sending out another one. So much has changed/happened since the first version. *added to to-do list*
I agree with griffen. What exactly do we write in those newsletters. I started it but couldnt finish. Ms. Jelly Beans, your help is needed! =P
Also where in the Phil did you get your invites? I’ll ask a relative to check it out for me. Thnx
Mich- I started with the basics: Intro and thanks for being part of our bridal party, wedding colors, dress choices, cost, etc… timeline for ordering, shoes, hair and make up, accessories, wedding timeline, contact info and emails, registry, our website link, and pictures and lots of them.
I ordered my invites from Spyder Invitations. They have so many great wedding vendors in the PI…. loved all of them! Good luck!
can i get the template for this please please
Hi!
I hope you are still on this site, but will you please email me a copy of your newsletter? From what I can see, it is gorgeous, but it’s hard to make out the elements on my computer. I am also making a newsletter in Tiffany Blue.
Thanks so much, your work is so gorgeous!
Hi!
Your newsletters are amazing. Would you please email me a copy of your newsletter/and or template? Please Please Please? I would appreciate it so very much.
I already told all my girls about you and your newsletter and they all loved the way yours came out! I hope I can do something somewhat similiar, but I am not as creative as you.
I love your newsletter! Hopefully you still check in to read your commments… is there anyway you could email me a template or pdf of this? It’s just so amazing!
[...] VA, and CA. That said, we decided to pig-ee back off of other bee innovations (Mrs Lily, Mrs. Jelly Beans, Mrs. Eggplant), and create a [...]
Hi Jelly Beans,
I am in love w/ your newsletter! My wedding is a little over two months away, but I’d love to create a newsletter to send to my bridesmaids with timelines, etc. I tried to use Microsoft Publisher this week and I can’t create anything as nice as yours! Would you mind emailing me your newsletter/templates, please? Email is schien83 at yahoo.
