Bridesmaid proposal

I wrote them all personalizes “will you be my bridesmaid?” cards that I got from amazon and gave them the cards over a group dinner

Just ask them. It costs exactly $0.

I did a proposal box with a personalized Starbucks tumbler, a candle, coffee and some cookies. I am extra.

My friend texted me. Bridesmaids proposals seem to be a new thing designed to sell wedding industry products. If you must do something, write them a heartfelt card

I’m thinking of making a small gift box with a small bottle of wine and a wine glass (hopefully personalized to them). I’ll also include a personalized note asking them to be my bridesmaid. I’m estimating about $25-$30 a bridesmaid

View Quoted Comment How much did all that cost ?

View Quoted Comment I like that ?

View Quoted Comment Nice 👍 very personal

View Quoted Comment I was just looking at that ? You think it’s enough ?

View Quoted Comment 😂 I might just do that

View Quoted Comment Well for their bridesmaid gifts for the wedding I’m getting them personalized hangers, personalized champagne tumblers, getting ready robes, and earrings. So I thought that getting them even more gifts for the proposal was unnecessary. They loved the messages in their cards so much that they all started crying! I’d take that over giving them something materialistic for that’s proposal.

I got my girls a candle, lotion and a personalized tumbler.

View Quoted Comment When I get to my work computer I will add a picture but I only gave two, one for my best friend who will be my maid of honor and one for a friend of mine just to kind of let her know that if I were having a full of wedding she would be my bridesmaid standing by my side. I probably saved total under $40 but of course you can go cheaper. The Proposal box was only about $6 not including shipping and handling, the Tumblr was about $15 and then I just went to Home Goods and for 6 bucks got some ground Starbucks coffee, a $3 soy candle and about $3 of some macarons or some biscotti that they sold there. I wanted to create a Starbucks name since me and my friends love Starbucks. Something else you could do to save money that I saw was a bride invited the ladies to be at her bridal party out to Starbucks and bought them all coffee and had the Barista right on the cups will you be my maid of honor or will you be my bridesmaid. I thought that was very cute as well. I will also send the links to the proposal box and the Tumblr as well as a link for ideas of what to put in there. Oh and before I forget another friend of mine just gave her bridal party some cards asking to be in the bridal party and she did a personalized bottle of cheap champagne.

Here are the proposal boxes that I purchased.

For my girls I got them: a ring pop, a jewelry dish (that I found at the dollar store lol but they were super cute and nice!), a bracelet, a letter, and I made them a planner. I found some templates online and combined it all into a pdf. My mom printed them out at her school for free. I then took them to staples to get them binded and have a clear cover on the front and back. I put it the rehearsal dinner and wedding date in the planner for them. You can always just buy some planners if you want. This way was cheaper on me.

I bought my bridal party their favorite bottles of wine to go in these bags from Amazon and wrote a note to them on these cards about our relationship/how much they mean to me Grand total was probably about $30-$35 (3 girls)

View Quoted Comment Wine is always good.
