Wedding Party "proposals": Necessary or Extra?

My now husband and I thought long and hard about who we wanted to be a part of our wedding party. When it was time to ask each person to be apart of the wedding we wanted it to be a cute moment.

The guys received a custom made box with a shot class, small bottle of alcohol and a note that read "It's time to suit up. WIll you be my groomsmen/best man?

The girls received a custom made box with a ring pop and a note that read "He popped the question, now it's my turn...will you be my bridesmaid/maid of honor?"

What are your thoughts? Are wedding party "proposals" necessary or extra?

    I wouldn't say it's necessary but I did them for fun and all of my girls LOVED them.

    Love the idea! I don’t think it’s necessary. I just asked all my girls in person while we went out for dinner and/or drinks!

    I don't think that they're 100% necessary but I do think they can be sweet. I gave my girls a personalized hanger with their name and a card that I wrote a personal message in. It was very simple, very inexpensive, and they all loved it.

    I agree that they are not necessary but they are super cute. I love the idea of personalized bags. Thank you! We got the idea from Pinterest and just personalized it.

    Silicone wine glasses that said their title, nail polish or lotion, a mini bottle of wine. No he didn't he just asked them. Guys don't need anything extra like that, more laid back.

    Not necessary but a nice touch. For me it was a way to say thank you for accepting, a way to appreciate them in advance for all their help and a way to get them excited for our big day.

    I bought them all make up bags with their names outside. Just first name as they are not married yet. Inside the bag is their role (MOH or bridesmaids) I felt this was a way for them to remember our day each time without being part of the outside of the bag. Inside the bag I put facial mask, lips make, bath booms and some hair and make products.
