Bridal Party Communication

How are you communicating with your bridal party? Through text, email, or did you set up a private Facebook group? I'm in the beginning stages of my bridal party and just wondering what would be easiest.

    Oh, and my cousin posted the dress she bought in the group the other day. I'm letting them choose their own navy blue dresses, so that has been fun to see what they choose.

    I have never sent all my bridesmaids a group text. It just felt weird since they don't all know each other. I contacted everyone individually to choose the day we'd meet up to try on BM dresses. Since then I still contact them individually to talk about whatever. They all have each other's info and most likely have a group chat for planning the bachelorette.

    I did a group message about dresses so they could talk to each other about dates, etc. Other than that it's one on one.

    I haven't asked my BP yet, but I plan to use groupme! It's so easy and we already use it as a main source of communication in my group of friends! It solves the problem of not being able to have group chats with people who have different phones.

    I've been using a group text. It's been a hit and miss so far. So I'll text them individually when they don't answer before I start blowing up the group message! Lol

    Thank you everyone! I'm letting the girls pick their own dresses but I really just wanted something for them to meet since my MOH's don't know my BMs. I set up a private FB group to introduce everyone and I probably won't use it much more than that unless they chose to post their dresses on there.

    Honestly, I see most of them enough that we talk to each other in person. Otherwise through individual texts. The only time I've done a group text was when the place where they are getting their BM dresses from had a flash sale so I let them know as a group.

    I use an app called GroupMe. Not all my bridesmaids have Iphones and group texts get all weird when there are iphones and androids. The app makes the group message look really organized, and people can "like" messages. Also all the pictures on it are saved. We really like it.

    I send out emails. For dresses, hair, makeup, etc... things that I wanted all to know at the same time. Besides that, I pretty much just did text message individually....

    The same ways we communicated before I got engaged. In person, on phone, text, Facebook, etc.

    FH created a Google group for his groomsmen. I just sent individual emails. Now that we're getting closer, the best man and maid of honor have been working to set up a WhatsApp group.
