Dear Bridesmaids,

Well, the time has finally come for me to prepare for my wedding. This is
just a quick note to all of my bridesmaids to inform ya'll about the plans
and arrangements about the wedding. Enclosed you will find a list of all
of the bridesmaids and their addresses and phone numbers. I know that some
or ya'll are out of state so it would be hard to make it to some of the
events, but the main event is November 28th at 7:30 PM at St. Austin's
Church, here in Austin.
I have found my wedding dress and the bridesmaids dresses and I
have also picked out my colors, Ivory and Gold. The color of the
bridesmaids dresses are gold and they are sleeveless and A-line. My dress
is Ivory. I found a dress that will look flattering to all of you, so
don't worry. It's a different kind of gold, so don't worry about looking
funny in the color. I have also picked the shoes and opera length gloves
for ya'll to wear. The total for the dress, shoes, gloves, and tax is
$208.38. There is a 50% down payment to order each individual dress.
Since the dresses do take about 4 months to come in, I would like to have
the dresses ordered as soon as April 12th, which is Easter Sunday. That
means that $104.19 is needed to order each of your dresses. Also, the
dresses run small, so everyone must order a size larger. I would rather
they fit too big than too small. If you want to send me a check made out to
SC Bridal then I will personally take it to the shop or you can send it
yourself. If you're planning to charge it, then the best thing it to call
the shop. When you do call in your measurements or to make a payment just
tell them my name and your names are on a list.
Also, here are the measurements that I need:

Waist: Shoe Size:
Bust: Dress Size:

The name of the store where I purchased dresses is called SC Bridals. All
you have to do is either call them or go by and tell them my name and they
should take care of you. A contact person there is Colleen Huber, she has
been helping me with everything.
Here are some important dates to mark on your calendar:
November 27th Rehearsal Dinner
November 28th Wedding
July 11th (not Finalized)Engagement Party

So far these are all of the dates that are written in stone for us. If you
can't make it to the engagement party, please do not worry! I just want
you here for November 28th!
