When I went home to Kansas City for Thanksgiving break in 2011 (about four months after getting engaged), I had one major goal: ask my best friend since Kindergarten, Megan, to be my Maid of Honor. Megan and I have known each other since we were six years old, so let's face it: I wanted to make it special. I found an amazing idea on Pinterest, and the way I decided to ask her came about.
I bought a bottle of my absolutely favorite wine that is made in Manitou Springs, CO and cannot be purchased anywhere else. It's called Summer Sunset by D'Vine Wine, and it is a sweet grapefruit wine. Delicious. Then, I made a cover with a poem on it that asked Megan to be my Maid of Honor. Of course, I used the colors we plan to use in our wedding. I thought it turned out really cute, and when I gave it to her at dinner at Jack Stack on the Plaza, she of course said: YES!
I wanted to share the pictures of the wine bottle craft I made:
How did YOU ask your bridesmaids to be in your wedding?
What is YOUR favorite wine?
Also, this week I am participating in my first blog hop, which I am pretty excited about! Check it out here:
Love the little poem- too cute! I actually asked all of mine with a wedding themed movie. I wrote all about it here: http://anchorsaweigh-ouradventure.blogspot.com/2013/01/bridesmaids.html. Loved your idea!
