The PERFECT Box for Your Bridesmaid Proposal
You’re about to ask your best friends to stand next to you during one of the biggest days of your life. Now it’s your turn to coordinate a “proposal” of your own!
However, being a bridesmaid is a commitment. It’s not just the wedding day. It’s the bridal shower, the bachelorette party, and the months of stress and chaos leading up to your Big Day.
Imagine giving them a personalized box for your bridesmaid proposal filled with goodies and products they can use on the daily! It’s an intricate way of showing how much you’ll appreciate the emotional and physical support they’ll be giving you.
Here’s how you can DIY each of your bridesmaid proposal boxes— or how you can get one package everyone will love!
First: Who Should You Ask To Be Your Bridesmaid?
Before we get started, we want to give you some tips on who to ask to be your bridesmaid.
You probably already know who you want to ask. But in our experience, there’s a big difference between who can actually help during your wedding festivities and who’s just there to party.
No shade! However, you’ll want a bridal party with a mix of organized, fun, and, most of all, committed people.
Here are the top 3 “types” of friends you should ask to be your bridesmaid:
- The Planner: The person who will instantly start making lists of things you need and vendors to contact.
- The Mom: Who in your friend group can calmly take the reins when things— inevitably— go awry?
- The Wild Child: Someone needs to keep the party alive! This bridesmaid might be the most organized person, but she’ll make sure your wedding is a night nobody will forget.
