I'm looking for inexpensive cute boxes that I can send directly to my girls in the mail. I don't want to buy cute boxes that have to go in ugly mail boxes haha!

I'm looking for inexpensive cute boxes that I can send directly to my girls in the mail. I don't want to buy cute boxes that have to go in ugly mail boxes haha!

Also does anyone have ideas of good things to include in the bridesmaid proposal?

What I'm thinking:

-Something I want them to wear at my bachelorette

-Poem asking them

-Color scheme of wedding

-Mini champagne bottle

-A contact list of the other girls

-And then a little note explaining that them being my bridesmaid is enough so no need for wedding gifts

Anything else I could include??? THANKS!

    I got paper mache boxes from michaels, painted them in our wedding colors. I included a lip gloss, a glittered mini champagne bottle and a ring pop. I used the same font for "will you be my bridesmaid" that I used on our save the dates and invitations. I also printed out a calendar, a contact info sheet for the bridesmaids including both mothers, and some pages from a printable wedding planning binder I found on pinterest. I can't remember what I included besides dress information. They loved them! I facetimed with my sister, sister in law, and best friend who all live in Colorado. I managed to get a screen shot, so its like a picture of us together. I asked my future sisters in law in person before treating them to lunch.

    Yes to all your ideas....I'm learning not to go crazy with it!!!! Remember your budget an that they will say yes to even a simple card, because they love you...but if you want more space fillers hit up the dollar tree good luck

    The best 'bridesmaid proposal' I've heard was from someone else on WW who wrote a personal letter explaining to each of her bridesmaids why they were so important to her that she wanted them by her side on her wedding day.

    I gave mine a frame with a picture of the two of us, a notepad for important dates and such, tequila and margarita mix in a mason jar, a ring po, a clutch filled with fashion emergencies and such p and a note explaining what they mean to me!

    So glad I stumbled on this post. Trying to start putting mine together now (though I'm not sending until late summer/early fall).

    Great ideas all around. I would have never thought of including the contact of other BMs in the

    WP...GREAT idea!
