Eat, Drink & Be Married: Beautiful, Bodacious Bridesmaids!

I have five incredible bridesmaids and one incredible junior bridesmaid. It was incredible fun growing up with them. When it came time to ask them to be my bridesmaids, I knew it had to be something special! So what happens when you let Linda loose at Marukai? She finds fabulous deals! I decided I wanted them to truly be surprised. This, of course, required that I keep the engagement a secret from them as well (only Thanh knew!) I began to craft an idea, it would have to be in a big box (because girls drool when they see a box), it would have to have something delicious (but it would have to keep) and they'd have to go through a scavenger hunt of sorts (because I love games).

Each of the girls received this box, personalized, with their name.

Rhinestones dotted each and every "i" with love.

Inside was a Barbie doll in a pink bridesmaids dress holding a placard asking them to be a bridesmaid. Also included was a pink donut from my favorite donut shop (Bakers' Dozen, kicks Krispy Kreme's butt). Last but not leas, a fabric bound booklet with instructions to a personalized email account where they would find further instructions.
