Bridesmaid Proposals: What are They, How to Pop the Question and What to Buy

The fact you are thinking of a sweet way to pop the big question shows how much you care for your bridesmaids. No matter what you pick, they are sure to love it. So, here are our suggestions for the best bridesmaid proposals and how to say “will you be my bridesmaid?”

What is a Bridesmaid Proposal?

A bridesmaid proposal is the moment you ask your best girls, sister, cousins or whoever you’ve carefully hand-selected, to be your bridesmaids on your big day.

This can be as creative or as off-the-cuff as you like, but for many brides-to-be choosing bridesmaids is an emotional and exciting occasion and getting the delivery just right is essential.
