Just Say No to Booty-Bows.

July 20th, 2011 @ 1:23 pm by Miss Snapdragon

Asking your ladies to be bridesmaids is a special event, requiring careful forethought and planning. You may want to craft a beautiful custom card, extolling the many virtues that your ladies possess. You might feel compelled to create a box of gilded butterflies, or some other amazingly detailed extravaganza on par with your lover’s wedding proposal.

Me? I asked the ladies on GChat.

And I have now solidified my reputation as the ultimate Weddingbee crafty diva with my amazing fancy ask-your-bridesmaids products. Aren’t you impressed?

My bridesmaids are a mix of my sisters of last name, and my sisters to whom I am not actually related. I asked my sisters-of-last name via telephone, but the other half to my brigade on the computer. We do 90% of our communication via email and chat—it felt apropos.

Also, just say no to ass-bows. Unless they’re funny, in which case say YES.

omg I think we have the same bridesmaids haha. I initially felt bad about just calling my girls- but then they reminded me that if I did something super cute and DIY, I’d be married by the time I finished said project! I think Gchat is perfect :)

This sounds exactly like my email thread with my girls - except we are not all on gmail so things can get pretty disconnected. H/e “ass-bows” is very much something we would say and laugh about forever!

I asked all most of my girls on the phone. That’s the way I always had experienced it, and the way I thought everyone did it (if not in person) until I discovered WeddingBlogLand several months later :)

The bigger the ass-bows, the better! Also, this makes me feel better about just calling my bridesmaids instead of getting all fancy pants.

You’re about as creative as me. I asked via text message! Lol. I wish I would’ve done something cute, but I was just too excited that it was the first thing I did and hadn’t started reading wedding blogs yet!
