will you be my bridesmaid?

When I got engaged, I didn't know how or when to ask my sisters and best friends to be my bridesmaids. They were obviously the first ones to share in the happy news, but as my mind didn't go straight into wedding planning mode (I wanted to savour the engagement for a bit first), it didn't feel right to ask them straight away.

But then, suddenly too much time had passed, and whilst we all knew it was an unspoken given that they would be my bridesmaids, I didn't quite know how to bring the subject up.

So, what did I do? Resort to humour of course! I made my own 'Will you be my bridesmaid ?' invitations, with photoshopped images of us all in horrendous dresses. I emailed them out, and the deed was done! 

If you're photoshop skills aren't up to scratch, don't fear! Etsy is here! See below for some of my favourite invitations...
