Bridesmaid Proposal Dilemma

Paxton, on September 26, 2023 at 5:28 PM Posted in Planning 0 4

Edit: The original discussion was cut off so adding more context.

I have two friends I want to ask to be my bridesmaid in person. The problem is the only time I will see Friend 1 in person is at our Friend 2's wedding which is coming up in a couple of weeks. Otherwise, I have no idea when I will see her in person again as she lives far. I can see Friend 2 whenever as she lives close to me. I want to know if it is possible to ask Friend 1 in person that weekend or is it not possible?

Context

1) The wedding has before and after wedding events that weekend (i.e. post wedding brunch, rehearsal dinner etc).

2) The earliest I will see friend 2 is getting nails done the morning before rehearsal. I can ask her then and ask about asking Friend 1 that weekend, but will that take away from Friend 2's day?

3) I could mail Friend 1's bridesmaid proposal box, just I wouldn't be able to ship the champagne.

I love both my friends dearly and only want to do what is best that no one's feelings are hurt Smiley smile.

    Skip the boxes. Especially since you can’t ship alcohol and they really do put pressure on the recipient to say yes without considering whether they can or want to be a bridesmaid. For the local ones, meet over coffee to ask. For the long distance ones, ask in a phone call. Do each privately.
