Maid of Honor Introduction Letter to Bridesmaids

This blog post is all about the maid of honor’s introduction letter to the rest of the bridal party.

Congratulations on accepting the position of maid of honor! Now it is time to reach out to the rest of the “I do” crew and get this wedding thing rolling!

A bridal party is a group of women that is very special to the bride. As the maid of honor, it is your job to contact them and establish your connection with them early on.

It doesn’t matter if you already know most of the bridesmaids or have never met them in your life. The best way to get things off to a good start is by sending an introduction letter to link everyone together.

In this blog post, we will talk about the best practices for creating and sending your introduction letter to the bridesmaids. With this information, you will know exactly how to introduce yourself to the bridal party.

How do you introduce yourself to the bridesmaids?

You should start introductions as soon as possible. Once they have accepted their bridesmaid proposal then you could reach out.

It is important that you wait to see who has said yes to being a bridesmaid. If you send the introduction letter too soon it may seem like there is peer pressure to take part.

You’d want to make sure you get the complete list of bridesmaid names from the bride and their contact information. Determine the best way to get the message out to the bridal party and then figure out the best time to send it.

Make sure you get the same form of contact for each bridesmaid. For example, if you want to send a group text, make sure you have everyone’s phone number. If you want make a Facebook group, make sure that every one uses Facebook and is on it frequently.

Do not have different forms of contact. You don’t want to email one bridesmaid and Snap chat the other. Make sure you all have a common and consistent way to communicate with each other. That way everyone will be on the same page and read the exact same messages.

It is best to keep the introduction short and to the point. Establish a point of contact and ask a question to get everyone talking. Then from there, you will have an ongoing bridesmaid thread.

What to say in a maid of honor introduction letter to bridesmaids?

We will break down the introduction letter into 3 simple parts: the introduction, a question, then the invite. This is the best formula to get the conversation going and forming some friendships.

Introduction- This is the part where you say “Hi” and talk about your relation to the bride-to-be. You could also talk about you are happy to get to know them and excited about the wedding.

Question- Ask them something. This could be how do they know the bride to be. You ask for party ideas for the bridal shower or ask if they are local or live far away.

Your job is not only to introduce yourself, but to have the bridal party introduce themselves as well. They may not know each other and this is a good way to break the ice between the group.

Invite- Ask if they want to get together and go to lunch or something. Make it fun for yourself and for others. This is a time to celebrate. If they are not local, then include them via facetime or zoom so that they don’t miss out.

Tip: Do NOT focus on titles. You do NOT have to say that you are the maid of honor and they’re bridesmaids. They probably know that much already. Focus more on the friendship part of this.

How to send a maid of honor introduction letter to bridesmaids?

You could send your introduction message to them via group text messages, or in group chat on social media. The best way to start off is via text message because they have immediate access to their cell phone. You are more likely to get a quick response that way.

We’ve determined that the best time to send the letter is in the evening and on weekends. Mainly anytime on the weekend and after 5 p.m. during the week.

That way the bridesmaids are most likely at home and will see it. If you send it early in the morning or during the day, they may not check or pay much attention to it if they are at work or busy.
