It’s the most important question you’re going to ask once you’re engaged, so you have to think about the delivery. No doubt you’ll have had the contenders shortlisted forever but we’re here to help you think of the perfect bridesmaid proposal ideas.
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.
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.
