Fun or Stupid - "Proposing" to Bridesmaids

I "proposed" to my bridesmaid... One of which I had to mail out of state because she lives in Tampa and they all thought it was very sweet. I say go for it!

I thought it was cute until I saw it everywhere. But to be honest, unless you're planning a wedding right now, I don't see how they would know about this trend so for them, it may be completely new and exciting. I only know about this trend because I am planning a wedding, otherwise, if one of my girls "proposed" to me, I'd think it's fun!

I personally think it's a cute idea! It all depends on your relationship with your girls, though. If you think they'd "get" it and be receptive to it, I say go for it.

I think it's fun and cute! I did this in a small way and everyone loved it. Gifts are always appreciated and even if the idea is overdone on Pinterest, thoughtfulness and generosity is always appreciated!

I love the idea of it. I already 'proposed' to my MOH, now I just have to ask my one bridesmaid who will be his sister.

I really don't think it is necessary. That's me though. I just called everyone and had a nice conversation with them and it was great.

I didn't even think about it until afterwards - would have been fun, i wouldn't have called it a proposal just would have done something little & special to ask.

Stupid. I sent text messages.

Stupid. I sent text messages / asked in person. I think it's way too played out now, and is anyone really going to remember it 30 years down the road? Probably not.

I got a very cute card from FSIL with a very heartfelt note written inside asking me to be her moh. I thought it was very special and meaningful.

Dumb. But I'm just not that kind of girl- didn't even want a proposal from FH.

... stupid? I feel bad saying that.

I "proposed" with a ring pop and all of my girls loved it. None of them were expecting a ring pop in the box when they opened it, so it was a cute surprise for them. My MOH and I both cried when she opened it.

Edit: Everyone got their box in person. I thought it was more personal than a text message or just asking them, especially with my quirky personality.

I wouldn't call it stupid, because some people would really appreciate it. I do, however, think it's too over the top for myself and my friends, so I just asked them casually in person.

It honestly just depends on your girls. I got these cards made on Etsy (very fast, great shop) and then either had lunch/dinner with them individually and gave them a bottle of wine with it or I mailed it if they live out of state. I know all my girls have theirs saved, 5/6 have them framed. The last one says she is going to frame the card, save-the-date, and invitation all together. They loved it. It's cute and can be cheesy, but seriously, what girl doesn't like being proposed?

Stupid

Mine just assumed she was

I don't go in for things like that at all

I just wanted to do something cute and fun for my bridesmaids, so I made cards and wrote a poem to them and put pictures of us together in the card. It was simple, but I my bridesmaids that live out of state liked the personal touch, instead of just getting a phone call.

As long as you know they'll say yes I think it's fun. Who doesn't love getting mail?

I sent my sister (MOH) a card before I knew it was "thing." She had already been my MOH once and I didn't want to put her on the spot. I felt like sending her a card gave her a way out. She didn't have me staring at her waiting for an answer.

I gave them each a cupcake in a mason jar that I made, along with a spoon engraved with "will you be my bridesmaid?" that I purchased from an Etsy seller. No proposing or anything though, lol. I just like to bake.
