Bridesmaid getting ready outfits

So, now that my wedding season is officially over and in between meeting new clients for next year (only 6 months to go until the first one yay!) I´ve been spending some time reminiscing over this year´s nuptials and all the bits that made them so special. More often than not on the wedding day itself I am crazy busy wrapped up in all the work I need to get done so don´t always get time to savour the little details. Then after the event when I receive the professional photographs I think ´Awww sweet´ or ´That was cool´ and it brings all the memories back. 

One thing I noticed this year was that a couple of brides had given their bridesmaids - and in one case a little flower girl - a simple outfit to get ready in and it was such a sweet idea. Apart from being a nice keepsake it´s a practical present too as slips and robes are easy to remove once hair and make up has been done. You could really go to town embroidering them, choosing colour coordinated garments to fit in with your colour scheme or packaging them beautifully. Or not. Just plain and simple. Whichever you choose, remember the climate as here in Spain in the summer, less is more!
