Asking the Girls

March 12th, 2013 @ 8:58 am by Miss Airplane

Now that our entire wedding party has been formally asked to participate in the wedding, I can finally share my first DIY project, my “Will You Be My” gifts!

Brides are finding such cute and inventive ways to ask their friends and family to stand up in their weddings. After pursuing some of my favorites, I came up with this idea.

I wanted to do something a little different and, since my favorite alcoholic bevvy right now is champagne, I decided to give my girls a little something extra to celebrate with.

Items needed:

  • a bottle of champagne for every girl (or sparkling juice for the youngsters)
  • label stock
  • a printer
  • a cute gift bag
  • a tag or card for the exterior

I actually designed the labels myself in Word and printed them up at work (shhh!). There was originally a back to the labels with a little poem, but it was a bit cheesy and didn’t really fit onto the bottles.

All of the girls were so happy! There were even some tears!

This was such a fun, simple project, and I was really thrilled with the way they turned out!

How did you ask your wedding party to join you on your big day?

This is adorable. I’m in the process of making mine! I was planning on cute glasses with champagne or wine, I might steal your quote!

OMG I’m not usually too crazy about the “Will you be my bridesmaid?” gifts. But I would pee my pants with excitement if I got this awesome bottle of champagne! Way to get the best gift ever :)

Asking two of my girls today, actually. I bought three different colors of card stock – cream, dark purple, and purple patterned – and printed out a card on it.

Hobby Lobby had these little makeup cases for $4 that said Maid of Honor and Bridesmaid in rhinestones.

I’m giving them the card, the bag and a bottle of their favorite wines with a pink and purple ribbon attached!

This is so creative! I wish I would have put more thought into mine but I had to mail mine so it limited my options for fragile items :)

I so love this!!!!!! To bad I’ve already asked everyone. But my FI and I asked his brother and his wife to be our MOH/BM by taking them out to dinner and I made a little box that read “Will you be…” and with a card inside “our MOH/BM?” But this is way cute, too. I plan on having a bridal party luncheon and having little gifts like this for my girls. :)
