It is quite an honour to be asked to join a bridal party. If you have ever been a bridesmaid or maid of honour, or even a flowergirl, you will understand what I'm saying. When your close friend or family member is planning the most important event of their life, and they ask you to be an intrical part of their big day, it's nothing short of truly touching.
So now you're the bride planning your own Sunshine Coast wedding, and you have some very special people to ask to be your bridesmaids. And you must remember, it's not just the actual day you're asking them about. When you're planning your wedding, you will want your girls by your side every step of the way. Dress shopping, choosing colours, making invitations, agonising over seating charts and budgets and family dramas, are all a part of the deal. Depending on your wedding day budget and circumstances, you may also be asking them to spend a significant amount of money in order to fulfill their role.
Taking a moment to ask that very important question of your special friend or relative in a really unique and thoughtful way will no doubt be very much appreciated and, in many cases, quite emotional!
