How to Ask Your Bridesmaids


How to Ask Your Bridesmaids

It`s your turn to pop that important question!  

I will never forget the moment my cousin gave me a present that I perceived to be an early Christmas gift but winded up being her way of asking me to be one of her bridesmaids! She gave me a black box that had glitter letters on it that spelled out “I can`t say I do without you” and inside the box was a wine glass, candle, the movie “Bridesmaids,” and a book that was a guide on how to  be the best bridesmaid you could be. The box was decorated with peacock feathers and colors which would be the theme of her wedding. The fact that she put this kind of thought into asking me and her other bridesmaids to be in her wedding meant so much to all of us and got us all excited to start the wedding planning! So if you don’t exactly know how to ask your bridesmaids to be your bridesmaids and you want some cute ideas on how to ask the important question here are some great and fun ideas!

1) WHAT GIRL DOESN'T LIKE JEWELRY??

Here is some cute, inexpensive jewelry one can find on Etsy.com. Etsy has a ton of jewelry that would make the perfect gift for your amazing bridesmaids!







    




















2)Gift box or basket!

Similar to what my cousin did, if you’re feeling crafty and want to put together something for your girls, gift boxes and baskets are a great, personal way of letting them know how much it would mean to you if they were standing next to you on your special day! The gift box or basket can be as inexpensive or expensive as you want and you can use your creativity in this little project to get you excited for all of the fun wedding planning ahead! And if you are not too creative, look at Pinterest for some great ideas!

3)Simple but perfect

A thoughtful card always does the trick. Especially if your bridesmaid lives far away sending her the perfect card that lets her know just how much it would mean to you if she was in your wedding is not only a great way to ask but also an awesome keep sake that both of you can keep forever. If it`s from the heart she won`t be able to say noJ

4)Girls lunch date!

Get all your girls together for a lunch date at your favorite place! When the time is right pop the question and be sure to take tons of pics! This is the beginning of all the fun that is yet to come! Although it may be early and far away from the actual date of the wedding this could be a good time to pass wedding ideas around and if some of the bridesmaids don’t know one another a great way for them to meet!

5)Alcohol!

Who doesn’t like a nice bottle of champagne?? Pop the question to the girls, then pop the bottle to celebrate!
