Getting Bridesmaid's Address

AG, on January 20, 2018 at 4:37 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 8

So I'm in the process of asking a few of my friends to be bridesmaids. One girl is my childhood best friend. We haven't seen each other much over the years, but every time we see each other its like no time at all has passed and we are clearly still each other's first best friends and love each other. She will definitely say yes. Thats not the point though - she lives in another state and I was going to mail her a little "bridesmaid proposal" box, but I don't have her address. I can't text her to ask because it will be too obvious and I want to surprise her, and don't want to say I'm sending out STDs because I think it will hurt her feelings if she thinks I never asked her (and I don't want to hurt her feelings for even a second!).

I messaged her mom (who is invited) online asking for it, but I don't think she checks her FB often and hasn't responded. I was thinking of asking her sister, but I'm not planning on inviting her. Do you guys think thats rude and I should find it another way? Or do you think its fine?

    Just text her for her address. You are overthinking this one. She knows you’re engaged, right? Then she is probably expecting you to ask for her address anyways. Do not ask her sister if her sister isn’t invited.

    Just ask her directly. If she asks why, tell her you’re starting to gather addresses for STDs and invites, if you want it to be a surprise.

    Agree with the PPs. You're overthinking this.

    I would just ask your friend for her address. When a friend asks me for my current address, I don't get suspicious. I don't need to know why they want it. I just text it back to them.

    Ask for address and just say you’re getting everything organized for when it’s time to send out STDs

    Just ask her and say something like you’re gathering guest information for when you get ready to send STDs. It’s not saying you’re about to send them but you are being proactive and collecting addresses.

    Text her this:

    "Hi, I have something to mail you! Could I have your address please?"
