    Since my bridesmaids live in all different states around the country, I sent them each a customized puzzle, asking them to be a bridesmaid! If they all lived in town, I would have setup a girls night with them all and asked them at that time, but since most aren't local, I decided to just mail them each something.

    My bridesmaids and I all love The Bachelor/ette, so I got them a bottle of Rosè with a label that says "Will you accept this rosè and be my bridesmaid/MOH?", along with a fresh red rose! Super simple and fun, and they all loved it!

    Over a text or social media private message in a regular conversation. It's free, no pressure.

    The proposal boxes would be a waste of money because they all have to be shipped cross country and no one I'm planning to ask is the type to keep any of the stuff in them. Also they pressure a person to say yes.

    I gave my girls these cute scrunchies in a cute little gift bag. you get to choose the color / design of the scrunchies. in total with the bag it was like $5 per bridesmaid.

    This is so adorable I can’t stand it! So fun!


    Amazingly I found a pack of “will you be my...” cards on Amazon in my colors with the exact amount of bridesmaids/MoH I had. I sent those to each girl with a bracelet that would match their dresses (though I did not ask any of them to wear them on the day of and I think only one did?). It was so fun getting all of the YES phone calls and texts!!

    Also, I ran out of time before the wedding to write personal notes to go along with the gifts I gave my girls the morning of the wedding, but the proposal notes were super personal and conveyed how much each girl meant to me, so I’m so glad I had the opportunity to do that and participate in this fun trend!

    Amazon has it all! That sounds so sweet. I LOVED the idea of sending things and getting responses of excitement at different times! That’s a super cute idea! I think I’ll gift my girls bracelets or earrings the morning of the wedding and they can chose to wear them that day or not to!

    This is definitely not a necessity, you can ask your bridesmaids in the simplest of ways and they will be overjoyed ! I simply had too much free time when it came to this.
    Me and my fiancé LOVE Harry Potter, so I incorporated that into my bridesmaids proposals.
    I had asked each girl which Hogwarts House they identified with and then I themed their box accordingly. Polyjuice potion ( mini Fireball), golden snitches (chocolate truffles) Matching socks, facemasks , hand sanitizer, other themed candy and a personally letter from Hogwarts . A bit on the nerdy side but I’m in love with them ! If you want to get super into it like I did, find something you and your fiancé enjoy and try to incorporate it !

    We're doing a Disney-themed wedding and I found these on Etsy. I could change the role to bridesmaid or MOH and add their name (it's not scratched out but the names are in one of the ears)! It was simple but really fun! Especially because many didn't really understand what was happening because all I did was hand it and a penny to them and said go for it!

    I did a DIY bridesmaid bag! In the bag was wine or sparkling juice depending if they drink or not, a necklace, and a ring pop and a hand written note to each! All of them loved it!

    For those who lived nearby, we had an in-person conversation.

    I did ask a friend who lives far away over the phone, but that was more of a "I know you probably can't make it, but I want you to know that I love you so much I want you standing with me."

    None of my friends expected a gift or a "bridesmaidposal".
