    Hey Rene,

    Sounds like you got the business regarding your post about binders and such! Although this is years later that I am reading this post, let me just say this. Honey, I hope that you did exactly what YOU wanted to do and if that included binders than so be it. You asked a question and you expected to get some advice on what to do about a subject that may have been very new to you. You received some great sound advice however, there were responses that were nasty and un-called for. Anytime that you send or post in social media you are open to great opinions but also serious scrutiny. I hope that you didn't let it bother you that most of the comments were perhaps honest opinions but less than nice in the way that delivered their message. I myself, have been in a wedding in which binders were passed out and to be honest, we Bridesmaids loved having the binders. Didn't feel like business to us, it was actually great to have them to refer back for reminders and such since all the info we needed was in the binder. The binders were organized and had info such as dress color swatches, itinerary for the weeks ahead and so on. I appreciated that more than receiving constant cold impersonal emails but to each his own. I'm getting married next year and I most likely will be doing the email thing but because of social distancing. Bridesmaids responsibilities are what every individual Bride wants them to be. You can either say yes, I'd be honored or hell no if asked to be a Bridesmaid. Personally, I'm not someone that care's what others think and trust that I don't even get to the 2nd sentence of a nasty response, I laugh at it and then go and do my own thing. I am hoping that you did not regret not doing what it was on your mind to do and I wish that I had read your post years back. Whether I agreed with you or not, I would have given you a respectful "kind" response. Hope your wedding was amazing!! A

    Omg, I'm with you Tiffany! Lot's of negative vibes on this thread. Rene was looking for some sound advise and instead got some seriously disrespectful responses. I hope that she ended up doing what suited her best. A
