In our opinion, some bridesmaid gifts are weird and end up sitting on a shelf or drawer for years, eventually ending up in the trash. Why not give something useful and practical?! Sometimes gift giving to bridesmaids gets overlooked all together... But yes, it is traditionally proper to present your bridal party (bridesmaids & groomsmen) with thank-you gifts that are different than the guest f

This past weekend I was cruising the aisles of our local Costco and decided to take a peek at the dvd section. Well, I grabbed the movie 27 dresses because I thought it was a cute movie and it came with a free book - 101 Uses for a Bridesmaid Dress. So to inspire you all to get out those sewing scissors and get those creative juices flowing....here are 5 of my favorite ideas from the book (the
I was honored to be asked to stand with my friend at her wedding this fall.

It’s a common issue among many bridesmaids: Do I bring a date to my friend’s wedding? I think it depends on the wedding, your friend, and most importantly your date. Here are seven things to consider:
Consideration one: Will your date be entertained when you are not around?

Who hasn’t been in a wedding where their dress was hideous? You never wanted to see it again much less have to wear it. But times are a changing. Long gone are the taffeta dresses with the puffy sleeves. Designers are making bridesmaid’s dresses more sophisticated and practical.When choosing bridesmaid’s dresses make sure to think about all of your girls. Not all girls are built the same, so
Batavia, OH (ThaLunatic Daily) -- Jennifer Wheeler, a 28 year old bridesmaid on the way to her sister's wedding started the party early, never quite making it to the church on time.Actually, this train wreck never made it to the church at all - instead, dooming her sister to a wedding story the family won't likely want to remember.Wheeler, who resides in Owensville, Ohio was arrested after she crashed her Dodge Neon into a tree while en route to her sister's wedding. Authorities say Wheeler was under the influence of drugs or alcohol and charged her with driving under the influence.The story doesn't end there of course, as Wheeler's train wreck was just getting started.Since the allegedly blasted bridesmaid wrecked her car, she also faces charges of 'failure to control a vehicle.'But w

In February, I posted that a friend of mine was invited to take part in her close friend's wedding by mass e-mail. The e-mail also informed the five potential bridesmaids that one of them would be selected at a later date to be the maid of honor. Since many of you shared in my horror about this story, I'm pleased to say that I have an update.My friend informed me tonight that she, unfortunately, did not make the "maid of honor - Survivor" cut. This did not surprise or disappoint her, but apparently the bride-to-be did not get a good reaction from the way she asked these women to be part of her wedding, so she recently made the "I'm sorry I asked you to be in my wedding by mass e-mail" tour around the city to personally ask each of them to take part. Apparently though, for the bridesmaid wh
I am a bridesmaid at an upcoming wedding and I am going to see several family members that I do not get to see that often. The bride has selected a very nice dress for her bridesmaids, but she wants the shoes to match the exact color of the dress. She also picked out the style of jewelry that she wants her bridesmaids to wear. How can I differentiate myself from the other bridesmaids without going over the top?
It's all about the hair baby! It's the one thing that she can't control. If it were me I would be a total brat and wear something crazy like a tiara ... but for you I suggest something a little less daring (read: crazy).
One idea is to wear a jeweled hair clip. Cara makes some great ones, you can find them at Nordstrom. Jeweled hair accessories always looks pretty and that

The best thing about giving your bridal party jewelry sets as bridesmaids’ gifts for the wedding is that it not only looks fantastic the day of your wedding, but it can be worn again. If you choose the jewelry with your bridal party in mind, you are sure to select a gift the bridesmaids will appreciate.
Let’s look at the many options available today for bridal jewelry starting with crystal jewelry sets. Crystals come in a rainbow of colors. Selecting a crystal bridal jewelry set allows you to match the jewelry to your wedding scheme color. For example, are your colors chocolate brown and pink and your bridal party is wearing chocolate brown? A pale pink crystal jewelry set will beautifully accent the chocolate brown bridesmaid dress but is also now considered a neutral color and can be worn with everyday outfits.
Keep in mind that if you do select a color crystal jewelry set, you don’t have to match your wedding color. Selecting a lovely ivory or champagne
The gorgeous Bride and the good-looking Groom together withthe attractive bridesmaid and maid of honor and the Corporate Officialsalong with their valor uniforms. It was tiring but indeed pleasurable of becoming a bridesmaid since we really have to hasten our pace upon coordinating the wedlock of our Tita and Tito. It was a flourishing and luxurious event though we felt so shy and coy while assisting the latter in view of the fact that the celebration was participated with the most well-known colleagues, distinguished guests, professional, corporate friends, and relatives of our Tito and Tita. Well, after that day, things kept on running on my head as I thought of the words spoken, emotions that are being expressed and advices being hammered and inculcated by the different personas in the wedding based on their experiences as married couples. Indeed, life is full of uncharted mysterious as we embark it to the fullest.. Seize the day!!
I was recently a bridesmaid at a friend’s wedding. It made me think about friendship and what it means to take this position at one’s wedding. It’s not the first time I’ve been a bridesmaid, it’s actually the second. But this was the wedding that had to be perfect. Held at a beautiful mansion with almost a hundred people in attendance – and one real life pop star, who happened to be the bride’s cousin – everyone looked like someone. However, I did not feel that way. In fact, I felt like a whale in my brown J. Crew dress, which was strategically bought two sizes too small in a vain attempt to lose the weight necessary to fit into said dress. Nothing like doing something dramatic to scare yourself into losing weight. Well, as you can imagine, it didn’t work and one week before the wedding I had to have it altered because it wouldn’t zip up. Unfortunately the very sweet Korean tailor was unable to take out enough fabric to fix it, and with a severe language barrier I c
Some brides fear the dreaded moment when one of their bridesmaids has elected to drop out of the wedding. As awkward as it may seem, unfortunately, dropping out of a bridal party is more prevalent than one may imagine. What happens when a bridesmaid denounces her crown and the bride has already purchased a bridesmaids gift?Deciding on following through with giving a fallen bridesmaid her gift after dropping out of the wedding totally depends on how long she fulfilled her duties and why she stepped down. As an optional rule of thumb, you may consider the following suggestions as protocol to use when giving a bridesmaids gift to a former bridesmaid.A Note of Thanks If the fallen bridesmaid served her duties for less than half of the duration of the wedding planning phase, then you should only feel obligated to send her a personal note of thanks for the work that she has done up until the point that she stepped down. If the bridesmaid dropped out before any of her duties were performed th

Some people like drama too damn much, so when there isn't any to be found they go and create some. Even at their friends' expense.I've been engaged for less than a month now, and already people are trying to turn this wedding into some kind of Bridezilla blowup. We haven't set a date for our jaunt down the aisle just yet, let alone ask people to be in the wedding. All we know is that we want a small-ish event since we'll be footing the bill ourselves, and because we're both really low-key people. Before the "Yes, I'll marry you" was completely out of my mouth, the phone was ringing and our email inboxes were full. Somebody please tell me how it's okay to email someone and ask that you allow them to be your maid of honor or best man. I've gotten 5 different requests from people that all begin something like this:"...Tasha, congratulations on getting engaged. I can't wait to see you two as an old married couple. I forgot your fiancé's name, I'll have to look at fac.e.bo.ok a
Lon and I made dinner for Peter, my Bridesmale/Bridesman (don't know what the correct term is), last night. Everything came together wonderfully.We started with a salad of romaine, radicchio, endive, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. The dressing was made with balsamic and fresh lemon. Our bread was a whole wheat panelle.The main course was a 2.75 lb whole red snapper from whole foods. We grilled it whole with Cajun seasoning and topped it with a mango salsa. We served a side of a brown rice blend we had gotten from Justin K. (who gave us everything in his kitchen when he decided to take the kitchen out). Pete brought over a bottle of Ferrari-Carano Fumé Blanc. It was delicious and tied everything together.For more pictures, check out the Flickr photoset.
