Will you be my Bridesmaid/Maid of Honor?

If you spend any time on The Knot anywhere besides the Vegas board, I'm sure you've run into all the posts that say "just being asked is an honor - don't buy them gifts!" or "this is a bridal industry conspiracy".  Well, that's fine - but I wanted to do something special.  I currently live in DC, my bff lives in Michigan, my other close friend lives in Chicago, and my FSILs live in Wisconsin.  Getting together and asking each BM in person was clearly not an option.  And I hate the idea of asking on the phone - because I'm a girl, and I'm weird.  So, I decided to send little packages in order to ask my potential BM's.  I bought blank note cards with gold hearts on them and wrote 'will you be my BM' poems inside them.  Here's what else I included:

Godiva Chocolate.

Mmm...chocolate.  Who could say no to that?  I love these cute little mini-wedding cakes.  I have no idea what they taste like, since they came in 4-packs and I needed 4.  But they look cute!

Champagne.

I bought each girl a mini bottle of champagne.  Nothing says 'wedding' and 'celebrate' like champagne!

Vegas Magnet.

When we were in Vegas in February, I really wanted to get the girls a Vegas themed luggage tag.  We only found one design and thought they looked really cheap - so we passed.  Instead, I bought each girl a magnet that looks like this one.  Only differences - the ones I bought were black and were $100 chips.  I figured the bigger the amount, the better the luck :)
