Smile Anyone use or heard of using sun umbrellas for Bridesmaids?

I saw a picture and it was adorable. Does anyone know where to find them?

Are you talking about parasols? I plan on getting them but I'm not sure where I'm going to buy them just yet.

I used them in my wedding and loved it! We all carried them rather than flowers. I got mine from asian ideas and they were perfect!

Yes I am having umbrellas for my bridesmaids. It is a very good idea for beach weddings instead of flowers.

most of us have bought them from Party & Wedding - Paper Lanterns, Parasols, Fans, Candle Holders, String Lights (Paper Lantern) or Japanese Kimono, Chinese Paper Lanterns, Chopsticks, Chinese Dresses, but you can also get plain white at Party supplies, crafts, party decorations, toys: Oriental Trading and sometimes at pier 1.

if you use the search function at the top right, enter parasol and you will get more info than you ever wanted :)

If you search for "parasol" in the search function you should find a lot of stuff. I used them and they looked awesome!
