One of my first duties as a bridesmaid was going dress shopping with the lovely bride. This is also known as "my favourite thing to do...EVER".
In order to prepare for said day, I thought that it would be fun to go in with signs that would tell the soon-to-be Mrs. which dresses we loved and which dresses we hated.
Here's the final signage that was put together:
Each bridesmaid had 3 signs. Essentially, there was a 'Yes', 'Maybe', and 'No' sign. To get a little more creative, I changed the wording of the signs to the following combos:
- Absolutely / Hmmm... / Unthinkable
- Yay :) / Meh :| / Boo :( (seen above)
- Mais, Oui! / Je ne sais pas / Non! (seen above)
I tried to make them a bit humorous to make the bride laugh when seeing them for the first time.
First lesson learned: I'm, sadly, just not that funny!
Second lesson learned: How did I ever go without Washi tape?! It's my new best friend.
How to make this happen...
1. Gather your supplies:
- Card Stock (white and the colour of your choice)
- Washi Tape
- Paper punch (I used a heart shaped one)
- Yes / Maybe / No sayings printed on plain paper
2. Get creative and start crafting some signs. I would suggest using the white card stock as your base.
3. Present signs when dress shopping!
That's it! You're done!
Another idea:
The bride could hold the signs when shopping for bridesmaid dresses and display them to her ladies.
