Will you be my bridesmaid?

Hi everyone! I’m back already! :) I am loving planning and of course one of the first things a girl should do when planning her wedding is pick her attendants! I wanted to share with you how I asked my bridesmaids and Maid of Honor for their participation in our big day. Of course I can’t just ask them, much to Joey’s chagrin. For my bridesmaids, I had cookies personalized for each girl in my main wedding color--purple!! Check out the photos! The poem says:

“It’s hard for me to believe That in just a little while, Joey and I will be Walking down the aisle. And nothing would give me More joy and more pride Than to have you Right there by my side. Will you be my bridesmaid?”

As a special Maid of Honor gift, I had a silver picture frame engraved with my sister (Laura)’s name on it, and “Maid of Honor” in pretty script. Then I wrapped it and snuck it under the tree with the rest of her Christmas presents. This is her face when she opened it!

Needless to say, she was psyched! :)

Well, that’s it for now. More to come shortly!

Love, Sarah

Housekeeping Notes:

The blog posts between the dates of January 1, 2010 and November 16, 2010 were orginally posted on our wedding website, www.thegishwedding.com.  The site has since been taken down, but I wanted to share my journey along the way.  You will notice posts about the wedding website and you will also notice missing pictures and links. I am working hard to restore them, but please be patient!

Thanks for checking out OhMyGish!
