Bridesmaid Proposal Box too cheap?

Save your money for the honeymoon! just call them in January

If you're concerned about your budget?

You are already screwed.

You don't need 11 BM's. And really, how special would YOU feel being one of 11? That's a soccer team, not a BP.

Call them. Call them in January.

And don't send anyone confetti. It's like the herpes of celebration props.

If you want 11 girls, then you have 11 girls! I think a big bridal party looks gorgeous especially in photos. Now about your budget, I would say skip the balloons. If you want to do something creative there are so many more affordable and cute things you can come up with. Look at YouTube videos or Pinterest for other ideas. Maybe have a dinner at your place & invite them over, then after dinner give them a personalized card & a small gift that asks them to be in your wedding. (Just a suggestion)

I'm team bridesmaid proposals. And I'm team have however many bridesmaids you want because it's YOUR wedding.

Hi, wedding twin!!! I say go for it. I also have 11 BM and I will be asking them within the next month or so. I want to know if everyone is able to do it instead of waiting and me having to freak out.

@stacey that makes me feel better! I know you're excited!!

Wedding twin also!!! But I only have 4 bridesmaids. I asked them all last month with personalized cards they can keep. I figured the sooner the better so they don't plan vacations.

Do it how you want as you only get to ask them once.

I asked my girls a year in advance also. Wine bottles and labels. They loved them.

My friend sent me the balloon with confetti which I thought was cute. I just called people and asked them to be my bridesmaids

11 is a lot of girls. I have 4 and I spent $100 per girl on thank you gifts. My wedding is this October and I asked the girls between July and September due to times when I would see them as I don't live close to all of them.

I felt like bridesmaid proposals were a waste of money but I didnt just want to bring it up randomly. I bought 2 of the girls a bottle of wine and attached a card. I bought a tumbler for my MOH. And a candle and lotions for my other one, she had just moved into an apartment.

Ok so I made proposal kits for my internship at a bridal shop this summer. If you want to do ballons, buy tissue paper and cut into tiny strips, then slice strips into small pieces, much easier to clean up. Buy a balloon confetti kit from walmart, 3 balloons for $1.50. Throw the glitter away and use the funnel and balloons in the kit. You can send everyone a confetti balloon for under $10.

When they open the envelope have a note that says "blow this up and pop it outside!" They will know they are about to pop. confetti balloon, it will be ok.

I gave one to my niece when I asked her to be my flower girl, she loved it and it was so cute! Her parents knew and simply had us do it on the deck, then they swept the deck after. Not a big deal.

Have fun, I hope some of them record it!

I card and a silly poem would be nice. I just text everyone lol. Well most my party is my family( daughter, cousins, niece) and they don't care. But I will give them a gift and TY dinner closer to my wedding.

Also if it's in your budget, 11 bridesmaids is fine. Do what you want. I would recommend talking to a florist first if you haven't already, the price per bouquet is mind blowing! Also look into the gifts you want to get and consider the cost.

You don't need a limo at your wedding and if you get one you can have 2, or just one and the bridal party travel seperate.

If your venu is big than they can accomadate the party, just think about your stage and if 22 people will fit on it. Our church is so small I'm worried about the 12 adults and 3 kids on our stage, 24 would never work but my church is small, yours might be larger!

If you're on a budget just call them and ask. This would fall under an unnecessary expense

I bought my pop the question cards in what I call 'The hoarder section' at Target (because it's a 'problem' for me). They were rose gold cards and I wrote poems inside to pop the question. I had already asked them on the phone because I'm just impatient, I like to have things together. They will receive gifts though.

That was my original wedding date before we started looking at venues. We found the perfect but it came with a date change to 8/11/18. My engagement ring is a pearl. I gave all of my bridesmaids a loose pearl as a "proposal" and asked them to turn them each into their own personal piece of jewelry to wear at the wedding. This way its still personal to each of them and I didn't have to worry about giving them a peice of jewelry they won't wear. They all loved it.

Im not asking my girls yet, way too soon but I know whobi want. My 2 best friends who are more like sisters to me. One will be married by the time my wedding rolls around so she will be my matron of honor and the other will be my maid of honor. Havent decided if I will have a 3rd or 4th. But for my 2 MOH, I am going to get them a picture frame with a picture from when we were little/inmiddle/high school and a more recent photo and a card to ask them when we go out for coffee or lunch or just hanging out. It has a little sentimental value, won't cost much, and I know they will love something like that.

If 11 girls is in your budget thats awesome, go for it. Just make sure you work out all the logistics for the ceremony and head table if your having one and everytjing else. I would not do confetti though. As fun as it seems it is a royal pain in the ass to clean up. Cards, letter, or something else small would be a great way to ask that won't put them on the spot, will maybe be a little more personal to each girl. Also, don't ask now. Wait until about January, and please dont have your engagement party on Christmas Eve. Especially if you celebrate Christmas. Maybe do it the week before or after if you want.

I sell jewelry for a living so I had my 4 yr old pick out his aunties rings for me to ask them. They all loved it

My aunt used to put confetti in all her cards to us, it was a mess. I'm all fine with proposals, I did wine glasses with a bottle of wine that we shared and cheers to. I also did just under a year but all the girls were girls I has picked for years prior. I didn't read all your comments but the thing about when to ask is more about how comfortable you are with your relationships. You don't want to ask and then have shit change between you to.

I love the idea! Yes, add a card. At the end of the day, you will also be giving them another gift at either the rehearsal dinner or day of your wedding. You've got to keep your budget in mind, those small details really start to add up! Trust me.. I'm living this as we speak... Smh
