This second post in my “Wedding Wednesday” series is a fun one! Today I will be talking all about how I asked my bridesmaids to be a part of all of my wedding adventures. There are a ton of different ways to ask your friends to be in your bridal party, so I figured why not share what I did? I seriously loved getting creative with each of their “proposals”, and I think they all enjoyed them too 🙂 So glad I documented each proposal with some photos!
I have six girls total in my bridal party- two maids of honor, and four bridesmaids! Since there are six total, I paired them up and devised three different plans for how to ask them.
Proposal #1
For this one, I got two square boxes, then added a note on the lid of each box that said “It’s My Turn To Pop The Question.” I got a bunch of rose gold (because duh) confetti and filled two balloons with the confetti, as well as a rolled up note with the all important question- “Will You Be My Bridesmaid?” I taped the ribbon of the balloon to the box, then taped a safety pin to the lid. When Devon and Alexis came over, I gave each of them their wrapped boxes and loved seeing their reactions when they popped the balloons and the confetti exploded!
Proposal #2
Next, I had to ask my sister, Alex, and best friend, Alexis to be my maids of honor! I ordered these super cute custom puzzles on Etsy, and they had to put them together in order to see the question of “Will You Be My Maid of Honor?” I used the same boxes from the first proposal, then added some confetti, a handwritten note, and the puzzle pieces. I love how the puzzles turned out, and I love that they have a little keepsake item!
Proposal #3
Last, but not least, I asked my besties, Jenn and Heather. I saw an idea on Pinterest that I thought would be super fitting, and I think they loved how it turned out! I got two small dessert/pastry boxes, made a trip to get some sprinkled donuts from Duck Donuts, and got some pretty blush ribbon to start. Then, I assembled everything, put notes on the boxes that said “I Donut Want to Get Married Without You… Will You Be My Bridesmaid?” and delivered their proposals! P.S- if you go to Duck Donuts and ask them to make the donuts really pretty, they will 🙂
Hope you all enjoyed this post! I loved being able to share how I asked my friends to be a part of my wedding, and going back through the photos made me feel so blessed to have such wonderful people in my bridal party! <3
