Default Announcing the new BDW Starfish Journal

Announcing the New BDW starfish journal

We are starting a great new tradition here at BDW. This will be open to anyone that wants to join.

Rules:

1. You will purchase your own starfish to take with you on your wedding.
2. Upon your return you have 3 weeks to send your journal entry and a picture of your bouquet to myself or another moderator.
3. One of the mods will enter your entry into our BDW online starfish blog. This will be viewable by everyone, so you can all see the starfish and where it has gone.
4. If you choose to send your starfish to another member the mods or this forum are not responsible if it is lost it transit.


The online journal address will only be shared with brides who have participated by sending their entry and picture.

If you have any questions, feel free to PM me.


You can purchase your bouquet starfish at these places (these are suggestions and some of the places past brides have got their starfish):

Pink Diamond Wedding Design

The Dazzling Designs Company - Other Products

Bouquet Jewels - Unique Bouquets for Unique Brides

Love the idea! I have my starfish ready!

How much info goes in a journal entry? Is it just name, wedding date/ location. Or a story?

Love it, and I think its an awesome idea. I love how the address will only be shared with other brides who have submitted their journal entry and pic, I think this makes it more special, like an elite club!

We will add your name, wedding date, location to the posting, but you just have to write an entry. The ones girls have already written (mostly last summer's brides) have ranged from really emotional and heartfelt to simple advice entries. Its really about you and what you would want to share with other brides.
