With my cousin at her graduation, I asked “You wanna be my bridesmaid?”

As we lay by the pool, sweating with sunglasses on (during a conversation about men, losing weight, and bathing suits), I asked my friend A, “Would you like to be in my wedding?”

And for my most special (only) sister over email I wrote, “I think mom would like you to be in the wedding.”

Nice, huh?

But I made ne’er a peep again about it until last night. I was really inspired by Miss Kitten’s idea of superimposing bridesmaids’ faces onto something ridiculous. I think my ladies will appreciate the cheekiness of it (I hope!). So, running with the Parisian flea market/Marie Antoinette theme, I took this:

And clumsily made this bit of hideous using (the poor man’s Photoshop) Paintbrush, and emailed a follow up message (does it matter that it went out eight months later?):

Bonjour Ladies!

I’ve been completely remiss in my bridal duties with respect to coordinating with you all. I apologize. But I wanted to let you know that I’m looking very forward to having you stand with me at my wedding, and really appreciate you agreeing to do it!! So thank you in advance!

And without further ado, I’d like to introduce you to each other: O (my #1 cousin!), A (a most loyal and dear friend) and, the one and only, E (sister extraordinaire). Heart you guys!! Thanks for being laydaaayz of mah court! (If you don’t see the image above, it’s also attached for your viewing enjoyment!)

Xoxo,

They’re probably wondering what they got themselves into right about now…
