Be My Bridesmaid? {Creativity + Fresh Ideas}

Brides, are you in need of a little creativity or ideas on how to ask your gals to be with you on your wedding day?  We have found and put together a few we think your ladies will love!  There is an idea for everyone! Whether you are a crafty bride, or a bride with a sweet tooth, there are several ways to show your girls you need them on your big day!  


Roses are red, violets are blue, will you be my bridesmaid? Please say "I do!"  


Be My Maid?  Create a hand crafted box and present it to your girlfriends filled with pictures and essential 'bridesmaid roles.'  You could include color swatches of the big day, a fabric sample of  the dress you have in mind, specific wedding information including the venue and time, and of course a thoughtful + personal message to your girls!    
Bridesmaid cut outs We love how cute this idea is!  Time to get the scissors out and doodle, dress up, or bedazzle those little cut outs!  Label them with each bridesmaid's name so they all know who will join them in the bridal party!  


Mason jar cake recipe  This idea is perfect for those friends of your with a little sweet tooth, or possibly someone who loves to bake!  You could include a cake in a jar recipe and a spoon!  Look for creative mason jar recipes on Pinterest!  

Bridesmaid joke card  If you decide to keep things light, and playful have fun with the idea of throwing a joke into the mix!  Who doesn't love a good laugh?

A bottle of bubbly  Now we all know that wedding's have the champagne flowing!  Why wait until the reception for the first toast? Ask your gals to be sipping by your side now, and at the wedding!
A pretty handmade card  This idea is so great for those crafty brides and bridesmaids who are sure to appreciate your hard work!  This diy card is pretty & elegant and most of all, thoughtful and made with love!  
A personal note You can't go wrong with a message that is straight to the point.  "I found a man, but I still need my girls!" Don't let your ladies feel left out of this exciting new adventure you are planning, include them in the big day! The more the merrier!

Head over heels for Alexander McQueen Peep-Toe Pumps

Brides, I saw these shoes and thought immediately of you!!
Not only do theses McQueen's make your feet and legs look ridiculously good, but they've got a heart peep-toe to tops things off.
They come in a variety of colors and fabrics like satin or patent leather to fit your wedding style! My fav is the classic white!
These would be super sylish bridesmaids pumps too- if you've already found your "i do" dream shoe.

A little something sparkly

Last week I took my first trip to Pangea Outpost in Pacific Beach. For those of you who haven't been... go! It's a huge marketplace with over 70 vendors selling anything from vintage signs to cute handbags, off beat books and boutique home goods. There are eclectic treasures from all areas of the globe as well as unique gifts...essentially, there is something for everyone in this extraordinary one-of-kind shop. I wandered through the aisles, sipping my complimentary cup of coffee (caffeine makes all us better shoppers) and stumbled upon a shabby chic dream! Lucky Starling Jewelry has designed an amazing space that Laura Ashley would be proud of and sells amazing jewelry at surprisingly affordable prices. I'm hooked! They have great classic style necklaces and earrings that would be the perfect sparkle on your BIG day (or really any day), and great gift ideas for bridesmaids too.



There are 2 Pangea Locations- Pacific Beach & Del Mar.
909 Garnet Avenue, San Diego, CA and 2720 Via De La Valle #B220, San Diego, CA
