Now that he’s popped the question, the planning for the wedding gets started. And that includes choosing your bridesmaids. There are lots of creative ways to “pop the question” to these special people in your life; Birkat Elyon, seller of dazzling cubic zirconia engagement rings, is on top of all the best trends, so here are some fun suggestions. And, just like our quality CZ pieces, they’re super-affordable!
FOOD AND DRINKS
Get small bottles of champagne or a pre-mixed cocktail. Add a cute custom tag, like “I can’t celebrate without you. Will you be my bridesmaid?” Alternately, spell out your message atop a box of cupcakes, package of cookies, or donuts.
COFFEE MUGS OR WINE GLASSES
There are easy ways to customize your message at the bottom of a cozy coffee mug or on a set of cocktail or wine glasses. Check out online sources like Etsy to add monograms, her name, and more.
JEWELRY
Write your question on a tag and attach it to a monogrammed bracelet, necklace or pair of earrings. Rings aren’t a great option as you may not pick the right size. Your bridesmaids can wear it on your big day – and beyond, as a reminder of your friendship. PS – jewelry is a great way to say “thanks” after the wedding, especially for your Maid of Honor. Birkat Elyon offers beautiful pieces that she’ll truly appreciate.
EVERYDAY ITEMS
What girl wouldn’t love a bottle of colorful nail polish, a fragrant candle, or pretty scarf? These can be a fun (and affordable) way to invite her to be a big part of your wedding journey.
An extra twist to your bridesmaid proposal is to present it with a “hint” about when your ceremony is planned. For example, if you’re planning a winter wedding, decorate a Christmas ornament with the date and include it with your invitation.
