How Did You Ask Your Wedding Party?

Let's hear how you asked your closest friends and family to be in your wedding party! Did you do a wedding party proposal box? Or ask them in person over coffee/lunch?

If you've ever been in someone else's wedding party, how did they ask you?

    Thanks, and yes, she really is that sweet! And yes, it is totally awesome that we can finally do this after all these years! It's a long story but it all worked out and we are very excited.

    I had so much fun making my bridesmaids proposal boxes. I got everything from Amazon. The box contained a bridesmaid robe, champagne glass, sunglasses, compact mirror, a small bottle of rosé with a paper straw tied to it. The inside lid had the proposal on it.

    Our expectations were minimal. We knew that people had financial restrictions so we kept that at the forefront. They had to purchase a dress that was affordable (we subsidized anything above $100) and show up at the rehearsal and the wedding day to support us. Everything else we covered (except their travel/transportation/lodging). They arranged an inexpensive one night out local bachelorette immediately following the rehearsal dinner. A shower in one location didn’t work out because everyone was scattered around the country but they wanted to participate via FaceTime so we arranged a time when that would work.

    Awesome that you were able to cover so many expenses for them to help keep their costs low! Those all sound like very reasonable expectations.

    I asked mine over the phone/ and FB Messenger. It would have been nice to do a proposal but they all work crazy shifts and it was impossible to get them all together for a spare of the moment dinner party. However, I am getting them all personalized gifts (his guys and my ladies) which I already have them picked out and ready to be ordered and they will be given out at the rehearsal dinner. Each gift if a bit different.

    Thanks!! ♥ I found the puzzles on Etsy, and I think my husband found the groomsmen cards on Zazzle, but I can't really remember for sure.

    I will have to upload a photo from one of the bridesmaids of the inside. It was a card, mini wine bottle, face masks with different sayings, makeup mirror and fererro rocher candy. They all loved it!
