My sister, I'm pretty sure, immediately knew what was going on. So my mom teased me and asked if I was going to say anything, but I said the scrapbook says it all. I'm not too good with words, but when I write, I can fully express myself. So here it is:
The title page: One of my favorite photographs from childhood. It may have been our first trip to Disney World.
A few more childhood memories: we used to go to the same Dance Studio.
A mix of pictures, past and close to the present, with a few quotes.
The letter that explains how much she means to me, why I want her as my maid of honor, and the actual question. She is a shoe fanatic, can't you tell?
The question:
Top ten reasons to be my Maid of Honor: I found many lists by typing this into google, but they were too generic, so I made a personalized version. She laughed and cried, reading through it.
The end of the book has many pages left for the wedding activities to come, I started by doing the engagement party, but plan on having scrapbook nights with the girls to fill in the rest, including, a Will you be my Bridesmaid/Maid of Honor page, the Shower, The Bridesmaid Luncheon, Bachelorette Party, Rehearsal Dinner and Wedding.
What are some of the ways you have asked or been asked to be in a bridal party?

That's so sweet and creative! My sisters are both MOH's in my wedding...one matron one maid!! I wish I would have thought of something like that.
I love the scrapbook...You are so creative and I am sure your sister appreciates how much time you put into finding the perfect way to ask her! so cute!
Your idea to ask her is really sweet. And I like the scrapbookpages...!
Very cute idea! That will be something your sister will have forever.
I bought each of my bridesmaids a wine glass that was hand painted that matched their hair and eye color. Paired that with a wine bottle that had a 'will you be my bridesmaid' poem as the label and a hand written/DIY card.
I am sure whatever you come up with for your bridesmaids will be adorable!!!!
Thanks everyone!
LauraAnn, I love the wine glass/bottle idea. Where did you get the labels?
awww sooo cute! I didn't do ANYTHING special! I think that while sharing the news of our engagement I just said "Well of course you'll be my maid of honor" haa and that was it! I didn't realize I was supposed to do something cute!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your post was so sweet! She is very lucky to have a sister like you!
I'm sure she will always cherish the scrapbook and the day you asked her to be your MOH.
Very cute! Love the scrapbook!
That is so sweet! I love the scrapbook idea!
