The past week we've been working on a guest list and bridal party! Both are in progress.
I have picked eight bridesmaids!!!! I've decided to make it formal so I'm proposing the idea to each of them to share in our event. I hand made ear-rings for each of them. (You'll soon see my theme and crafty-ness revealed).
1. I wanted to make them something special to keep in memory of my wedding.
2. I wanted to formally ask them because each of them represents a special part of my life and I want them to know how special it would mean to stand with me on that day.
3. I wanted us all to wear pearls, which is the national symbol of lung cancer. Together we will all honor my mom and how amazingly strong she is. I could not imagine this day without her and because of her faith and strength I'm am no longer in fear of this.
I boxed them up and wrote individualized letters to each of them.
I've cried with each of them!! They are each wonderful women
and I am truly honored to call them my friends!
Ryan is in the process of asking his guy friends to be a part of his wedding and he's doing it in his own special way- taking some golfing, out to eat, softball etc. We both just wanted to make sure we expressed how much it would mean to us that day.
As for our guest list for that day-I created a google doc (I'm so 21st century!) and Ryan's mom filled in his side and I'm working on my side. It's really coming along.
HOWEVER!!!!
