The Bridesmaid Proposal

Happy Monday, all of my beautiful brides!

I get a lot of questions on how to propose to a bridesmaid and while it isn’t something that is 100% necessary, I think that it makes the whole planning experience more fun for everyone involved. Let’s be real, most of your bridesmaids probably already know if they are going to be in your wedding party before the proposal even happens, just because you are the best of friends. But asking each of your girls in a special way is that much more meaningful, and shows how much you truly care about her and NEED her standing right by your side as you say your “I Do’s.”

For those of you asking 6, 7, 8 or even more bridesmaids, I know that this can get a little pricey but there are tons of ideas that are very price-effective. I promise, we can figure out something that will work with your budget, even if it is very simple. And in many cases, simple is better!

So today, I wanted to showcase one of the cutest bridesmaid proposal ideas I recently found. Although I loved my proposal to my bridesmaids (photo on the right), I wish I had known about this company before because I would have LOVED to propose in this way!

And without further ado, here is the most adorable bridesmaid proposal idea from Blue Penguin Shop!
