Ideas of Bridesmaids Proposal!

When I was a BM, we all went out to eat and the bride gave us our boxes at dinner. It was nice to all get together, but that may not be possible depending on schedules/locations.

We had an engagement party and I asked them all to come and gave them bags with hoodies on it that said "bridesmaid" or "MOH".

I think elaborate bridesmaids proposals are completely unnecessary. Giving gifts and putting your friends on the spot in front of everyone else puts a ton of pressure on them to say yes, even if they need to say no for any reason. As a bridesmaid, I would much rather the bride just call me, send a card, or ask over coffee.

View Quoted Comment You think so? What if you kinda already ask them lol

View Quoted Comment I was thinking this would be a great idea. Thank you

View Quoted Comment Nice idea!

I mailed mine but lots were out of state. I love the dinner idea!

View Quoted Comment Nice okay thank you

I asked my girls during Christmas so that was technically their gift lol. I made each one of them a box with a monogram mug, fuzzy socks, and lots of their favorite goodies. Inside was also a note telling them how much I love each of them and what their friendship means to me.

After the holidays calmed down I treated them all to a nice dinner out so we could all meet up since some of them hadn't met each other yet.

Hi Jasmine Did you decide when/how to give your bridesmaids their boxes? What did you put in them?

View Quoted Comment Sorry so late so the proposal is actually Aug 24th I ordered the boxes from amazon and stuffed them with bridal stuff like matching bracelets glasses, and a duty list of what is to come. I hope they like it
