This is so sweet :')

Super lovely aww .. Loved the pop ring one so funny and delicious 😂💕

I dint want to be asked too much hard work!

I asked my bridesmaids with a cute poem and a black make up bag that says their title. I wrapped them up individually& put them in a brown gift bag I hot glued ivory flowers & crystals to.

Aw these are so sweet!!! My husband and I got married at a courthouse, and will have our ceremony and reception on our 1 year anniversary. These are great ideas for how to ask my special ladies to be apart of our big day! =D
