When proposing to the people that you would love to stand by you on your wedding day, there are SO many ideas floating around online that are just simply not cute & a waste of money.

I was in this same boat – I personally could not find anything that felt like it was ME when thinking about proposing to my bridesmaids. Everything was so cheesy or too corny for what I felt they deserved! I decided to not go all out on a bridesmaid proposal, and now I regret it. This inspired me to think of ways that people who are maybe in similar shoes as I was, and I wanted other’s to feel like they would be able make a memory for these important soon-to-be bridesmaids!

I know I needed to create a home for those who are into the gorgeous and aesthetic ideas to spruce things up a little!

1. Proposing with Florals

An amazing aesthetic way to propose to your bridal party is to gift them flowers. Who doesn’t LOVE getting a gorgeous and thoughtfully crafted bouquet of flowers? This is the perfect idea for the garden girlie – the one always dreaming of running through flower fields & charcuterie picnics in floral gowns surrounded by all her best friends.

You could craft the flowers considerately and choose different ones that are in season, or even give a nod to the inspiration of what you envision on your wedding day! Even better, it would be so creative and unique to wrap your bouquet in a bridesmaid proposal like this.

STUNNING! I created this template to be creative and EASY to simply plug in all of the important details – from the bridesmaid dress to the bachelorette party – and accent it by wrapping it around your florals. To make these bouquets last, you could have a session of drying the flowers as a girls night and preserve their beauty so this memory can last a lifetime. Go ahead and check them out here & customize with your wedding colors, bridesmaid dress details, and more!!

2. Shopping small and local

Another aesthetic idea is ALL ABOUT supporting local vendors. Instead of shopping online, it could be such a lovely idea to use the unique gems hiding around your town. This could be made SO personal, gifting your bridesmaids things like homemade candles, slippers for getting ready the morning of your wedding, some dainty jewelry from local artists – the opportunities are endless and could be right in your quaint little town. You could create your own gift box full of these intentional gifts.

3. Something that matches your wedding aesthetic

Something important you can do in your bridemaid’s proposal, is to make it personal to your wedding style! Knowing you, your day is going to speak VOLUMES to you as the radiant soul that you are. It should be kissed with details that let everyone know who attends your wedding – that YOU were the one who planned it full of intentionality and heart.

For the luxury aesthetic – You want to help your girls SHINE. Make them feel glamorous and classy, while remaining simple and timeless. Like getting them a pair of pearl earrings, a bottle of champagne for you two, or exquisite roll on perfume.

For the cottage core girl – you want to help your girls feel dreamy and whimsical! Like a recipe book, a floral charm bracelet, a ceramic mug – these could be the perfect gifts, AND something they could use often and be reminded of your friendship.

All in all, he popped the big question now it’s your turn to pop the question to your best friends! It’s time to make it one to remember. To create something intimate and personal, to show your girls how much you cherish and value your friendship. Use this template to shape and mold everything to be the dream day that you imagined!
